Elon Musk Reveals Details on Tesla's Cybercab Robotaxi, Aiming for Production by 2024

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, provided insights into the company’s plans for a fully autonomous robotaxi called the “Cybercab” during Tesla’s earnings call. The Cybercab will be a dedicated robotaxi built on Tesla’s next-generation vehicle platform, designed specifically for autonomous ride-sharing. Musk aims to have the Cybercab in production by 2024, with the goal of achieving the lowest cost per mile for transportation. He emphasized the importance of fully autonomous driving for the Cybercab, as it will not have traditional controls like a steering wheel or pedals. The Cybercab’s design will prioritize maximizing passenger capacity and interior space utilization. Musk believes the Cybercab will revolutionize urban transportation by providing an affordable and convenient alternative to private vehicle ownership. However, he acknowledged the significant engineering and regulatory challenges involved in bringing a fully autonomous robotaxi to market.
