TechTesla’s unusually muted Cybercab launch

Tesla officially launched its Cybercab at a private, closed-door event in Austin, Texas, without a livestream and with an invite list dominated by pro-Tesla influencers. The company has 45 Cybercabs registered in Texas, though their immediate commercial use is unclear, and it has not said when the vehicle will go on sale. The launch leaves questions about pricing and Tesla’s ability to compete with established robotaxi operators such as Waymo.
