Tesla’s Cybercab goes into production — so why is Musk tapping the brakes?

Tesla has officially begun production of its highly anticipated Cybercab at the Gigafactory in Austin, Texas. The announcement was made on Thursday via a post on X, accompanied by a video showcasing the steering wheel-less robotaxi as it exited the factory. Despite this significant milestone, CEO Elon Musk has expressed a cautious outlook regarding the vehicle's rollout. The Cybercab is designed to revolutionize urban transportation, aiming to provide a fully autonomous ride-hailing service. As Tesla moves forward with this innovative project, the company is navigating the complexities of regulatory approvals and public acceptance, which may influence the pace of deployment.
