Tesla has restarted production of Model Y vehicles equipped with its in-house 4680 battery cells in the US, more than two years after halting to prioritize the Cybertruck. Weak Cybertruck sales and tariff-related supply chain issues prompted the shift, with new non-structural packs improving repairability. The move was announced in Tesla's Q4 2025 shareholder update.

VP Bonne Eggleston highlighted the breakthrough on X, enhancing supply chain resilience amid trade tensions, as noted in the Q4 and FY 2025 update.
