Tesla on Thursday, September 3, in Austin in the US state of Texas officially unveiled the Cybercab vehicle. It is a robotic taxi designed without a steering wheel and pedals, which is to be part of the automaker's plans in the field of autonomous transportation. hnonline.sk ↗

The company has been testing the vehicle on streets for several months. In Texas, it also launched the first rides with the driverless Cybercab. According to descriptions, the presentation had an unusually subdued character, although the model is among Tesla's key projects for its future business. ihned.cz ↗

The Cybercab is to help Tesla strengthen its position in the autonomous taxi service segment. The automaker and its CEO Elon Musk, however, according to articles, are still lagging behind market leaders in this field. The goal of the project is to catch up with the competition, especially with the Waymo service, which is considered a significant player in autonomous taxi services. Der Standard ↗

Further development will depend on how well Tesla manages to handle testing, operational safety, and expansion of the service beyond initial rides in Austin. The Cybercab is also important for the company because it is to demonstrate whether it can transform its long-term promises about autonomous driving into a commercially viable service. n-tv ↗
