New video shows Tesla Cybercab and its point-to-point transport
Tesla has published a new video on X that highlights Cybercab and point-to-point autonomous features while driving passengers.
The electric vehicle (EV) maker unveiled the Cybercab robotaxi at the October 10 event. It is designed for autonomous driving without any steering wheel or paddles for manual control. Instead, the car totally relies on self-driving technologies.
The video highlights the front fascia with slim beams and a light bar. Users can order a ride with an app by setting a destination. The app will show you notifications for ETA and live activity on smartphones. The car has butterfly doors that open automatically when the cab reaches the pickup location.
The Cybercab will have climate figured out for passengers as well as animals before reaching the pickup location. The video touches the rear trunk, which has a big capacity for passenger luggage. Once inside, the passenger can close the doors.
The most interesting parts of Cybercab’s interior are its passenger seats and the front display. It can host two adults and children with its massive leg space and flat floor.
The front screen has entertainment, streaming, and creativity app support. The video also shows a person carrying a live conference inside the cab. It apparently uses an inbuilt camera on top of the screen but not confirmed. It might be possible with a phone casting feature to project on-screen content.
The company is expected to launch autonomous ride-hailing services in Austin and California by next year. However, it first deploys Model 3 and Model Y to provide services.
By next year, Tesla will prepare for trial production and conduct volume production in late 2026. The production may be delayed to 2027, which would also be the year when Tesla will include Cybercab in its ride-hailing fleet.
