Tesla integrates Chinese AI into vehicles while raising Cybertruck prices amid declining sales in the US market
– Tesla integrates Chinese AI tech into vehicles to boost competitiveness in China amid rising Cybertruck prices.
– Cybertruck price increased by $15,000 to $117,235, amid disappointing sales and lower delivery projections for 2025.
This approach contrasts with Tesla’s Grok AI system in North America. The upgrades are essential as Tesla’s share of the Chinese market has significantly declined.
Price Increase
In a related development, Tesla has increased the price of its Cybertruck model by $15,000 to $117,235, which now includes a mandatory “Luxe Package” with self-driving software.
This move follows disappointing sales, with only 4,306 units sold in Q2 2025, 50% lower than the previous year.
This pricing shift contrasts sharply with CEO Elon Musk’s earlier commitment to a $39,900 starting price. Current projections indicate Tesla may deliver fewer than 22,000 Cybertrucks in 2025, well below previous estimates.

Apple unveils innovative AI-powered wearables, including smart glasses, a pendant, and camera-equipped AirPods, set to reshape ambient computing.
Apple is making a bold move into AI-powered wearables, developing three innovative devices designed to bring ambient computing to everyday life. From smart glasses to a futuristic pendant and camera-equipped AirPods, the tech giant is integrating these devices with an upgraded version of Siri to enhance user experience.
The smart glasses, slated for a 2027 launch, will feature dual cameras and rely heavily on voice interactions, aiming to compete directly with Meta’s leading smart glasses in the market. Meanwhile, the AI pendant is still in early development but promises to be a companion device for iPhone users.
Camera-equipped AirPods could arrive as early as this year, capturing environmental data to feed Apple’s growing AI ecosystem. With Meta’s smart glasses already dominating sales, Apple’s entry signals a fierce battle in wearable AI technology.
