The guidance comes amid a drop in deliveries and after earlier slowdowns of Cybertruck production.
Tesla told Austin workers on its Model Y and Cybertruck lines to stay home for the week of Memorial Day, three workers told Business Insider.

Tesla deliveries dropped 13% year over year during the first quarter.
