The company had earlier said that Tesla had the capacity to make more than 125,000 Cybertrucks annually, with Musk adding there was potential to lift it to 250,000 in 2025. On the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast released Tuesday, Musk reiterated how hard it was to produce the Cybertruck. "We're aiming to make about 200,000 a year at point production ... maybe a little more, but I just can't emphasize enough that manufacturing is much much harder than the initial design," Musk said about the futuristic-looking Cybertruck.

NEW YORK (AP) — Those miracles of modern science, the Rolling Stones, celebrated the release of their first album of original music in 18 years with a Manhattan club gig on Thursday. Mick Jagger alluded to past stunts the Stones had done in New York to tout new music over the years, including performing on a flatbed truck on Fifth Avenue. “Hackney Diamonds,” coming at a time many fans wondered if the Rolling Stones would ever bother again with new music, has been well received by critics, with many noting the crisp energy the band displayed. This time, the bar band was the Rolling Stones. Lady Gaga, dressed in a maroon sequined pantsuit, appeared to recreate her duet — duel, really — with Jagger on the new “Sweet Sounds of Heaven.”“New York, the Rolling Stones!” she said before leaving, after exchanging kisses with Jagger and Richards.

REUTERS/Jeenah Moon/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsOct 18 (Reuters) - Tesla (TSLA.O) CEO Elon Musk on Wednesday warned of difficulties in ramping up production of the automaker's much-awaited Cybertruck electric pickup truck and announced that deliveries would begin on Nov. 30. The Cybertruck is expected to challenge Rivian's (RIVN.O) R1T, Ford's (F.N) F-150 Lightning and General Motors' (GM.N) Chevrolet Silverado EV in the hot market for electric pickup trucks. Musk said he wanted "temper expectations" for the truck, adding the company could face "enormous challenges" in ramping up production and making it cash-flow positive. "But I think that they're giving us an indication of the capacity they're going to make available for the Cybertruck as production ramps up."
