Tesla will end production of its long-running Model S sedan and Model X SUV by mid-2026, CEO Elon Musk confirmed during the company’s Q4 2025 earnings call. “It’s time to basically bring the Model S and X programs to an end,” he said. “We expect to wind down S and X production next quarter. However, the Model S quickly climbed to the top of owner satisfaction charts and built a dedicated fan base. A few years down the line, the Model X, a crossover SUV, hit the market, but it didn’t start off on the right foot, facing some criticism for its reliability.
