Tesla's Cybercabs are now hitting the production line. Honestly, I think this is gonna be the biggest leap in vehicles since the Cybertruck. I'm about 80% convinced I'll snag one, and I'm definitely planning to keep an eye on how it performs economically and whether it can actually make money once they start offering driverless rides.
Tesla Cybercab

I have not been following the news about this Tesla Cybercab since last year I think. According to what I read about it at the time, it is not going to cost more than $30000. I think it is cheap if it can be used to earn more money.
According to my findings now, the rollout will be in this April.
Driverless cars are gradually stepping into the mainstream as a means of transport. Although, its always raised a lot of concerns and skepticism given that, there can be glitches and you dont know how this might respond not to mention the various car thefts. There should be a crazy safety future with these cars because, its what you rely on in any eventuality especially with the fact that, it takes one crazy driver to run into you and ruin your cruise in a driverless car.

$30k for a Cybercab is a cheap price tag and if it performs well then it could earn that amount within 1 to 2 years. However, it also depends on the locations where someone uses it, in first world countries one could make such amount within a year or two but such a thing isn't possible in third world countries. Still, it's a good one and those who're after it should probably give it a try.
Heres a cool image I came across showing the evolution of the steering wheel in Teslas to no steering wheel. I cant wait to see how the Cybercabs actually work for customers. I hope I dont have to wait too long for regulation to allow me to really have fun with one.

Tesla is really paving the way of electric vehicle and the design just take a look at that is this rendering image or real product? and to be honest tesla is courage to do such design like this but Tesla is always insane hahah in term of technology and design.
according your photo this might have only 2 seat right? does this mean this gonna replace the tesla roadster and build for speed?
It is a real product. A 2 seater. For short cheap cab rides. Definitely not the Roadster market.
It looks like a new massive charging station is being built in Chandler Arizona. They are saying this may be the first Cybercab charging station. I may get the honor of being one of the first Cybercab operators in the world.
To think that there would be a no steering wheels car that would be road worthy and function in our society is some step into the transport system and to think of it now, I think its of some necessity for some handicapped individuals that wouldnt want to opt for a driver and still want to get by on their destinations some way. Its definitely a useful alternative that would serve its purpose real good although, its kind of a long shot and I dont know what safety feature its got but, its got to be top notch for these vehicles.

I read that it has wireless charging and .

That is smart.
Some more pictures
It is a good idea if you are seeking another source of income, I think, and can afford to own one or two or even more.
this will be an expensive taxi ride i bet.
The idea to remove the steering wheel is fantastic and revolutionary. Musk wanted to do that years ago. This goes with his plans that Tesla isn't a car company, but a robot company. Tesla car is just a robot in with tires.
I would love to have one, but there are no Teslas in Brazil. At least I will save money

I did dig up on the internet that Tesla wants to build a Tesla robotaxi fleet https://www.tesla.com/robotaxi and this car might be one of it, and one article said that Tesla Cybercab robotaxi has entered production. But if this for taxi-like commercial use, this gonna facing lot of regulations.
Did Tesla also have a new supercharger like BYD did ? I hear that now charging an electric vehicle isn't that takes long time. You know what just do video and upload on youtube bro because countries like Indonesia gonna take a decade to feel something like this haha

Wireless charging system? Never heard of this before. This is innovative, and I hope to see the same technology in other electronic devices.
I am very skeptical about self-driving vehicles because of their security challenges. There is information that some of these cars have been seen driving on the wrong side of the road. I might develop heart failure if I'm inside and it starts malfunctioning.
Congratulations in advance, OgNasty.

I loved the cyberTruck but not financially bold to own one, the CyberCab is as impressive as the CyberTruck, will this Gold color be on special edition or specific request because it looks resplendent and luxurious.
The cyberTruck was successful globally even in countries that doesnt support all of the cyberTrucks option and functions the vehicle was still bought there.
The whole point is exactly the opposite
No driver means no tip is necessary. It is also designed to have the lowest cost per mile of any 4-wheeled vehicle. It should lower costs compared to a typical Uber ride by more than 50% while still providing profit to the owner.
My Cybertruck has been driving me around for more than a year now with no issues. My stats say my truck drives 98% of the miles for me. Never had an issue. I even drove it on a 1,600 mile road trip and never had to touch the wheel or pedals once. People have no idea that self driving is already significantly better than a human driver.
Theyre multiplying. These ones are said to have been built with steering wheels and pedals in order to have validation drivers expand service areas to new cities. Hopefully a bunch of these are headed to Arizona. Elon seems to think theyll be going out to customers by Christmas.
Cybercab testing in Oregon has reportedly begun.

These are quite important questions to ask because it has to make sense economically to attract new customers outside of its prestige and other important technological upgrades compared to the other Tesla models.
Hopefully, youll share your findings with us which I am very interested in.
I've really not researched deeply about this Tesla Cybercab which is already in the trends despites it's niche and unaffordable for the average or common masses.
The potential admirations of the technology is at the court of its remotes accessibility in the robotic form.
We've also trusted the abilities of the AI technologies being more accurate than the humans operations, such is the similar advancement of this Cybercab being driverless and are still safer on safety precautions.
Indeed this technology of mobility is a dream come true because I can remember when the electric mobile was mainstream as future technology.
Here cones the technology today's.

I try not to think about strange things during dangerous and emergency conditions with this car when it is operating, but still, because from the interior point of view of the car, it is completely controlled by a robot even though (perhaps) it is supported by a request adjustment feature for passengers.
I think people should ensure they have acvitve accident and health insurance before becoming Cybercab customers.

That's a cool evolution but I might feel odd to ride and drive one if there's no steering wheel. But I guess that's where it is going. I recently watch those videos who owned a tesla and most of them gives a thumbs up and good experience for a year. Keep us updated if you already drive these new cybercabs. We've got AI prompts for most things now, this one is gonna be few taps away and probably a voice command where you'd go from point a to point b. I wish to own one in the future if the market pumps more and it won't be that much for my portfolio to slash some for it.
