Tesla's long-promised Cybercab has finally begun offering paid rides to the public, marking a major milestone in the company's push toward a fully autonomous vehicle fleet. The purpose-built, two-seater robotaxi — which features no steering wheel or pedals — represents a significant departure from Tesla's earlier plan of retrofitting existing vehicles with its Full Self-Driving software. While the launch is a tangible step forward after years of shifting timelines and regulatory scrutiny, the service is likely still operating within limited geographic zones and under specific conditions, meaning it's far from the driverless, anywhere-in-the-city experience Musk has envisioned. The rollout will be a critical test of whether Tesla can translate its autonomous driving ambitions into a commercially viable and safe service at scale.
