The vehicle, designed exclusively for a new Tesla-managed ride-hailing service, will be fully autonomous and will have no steering wheel or pedals.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has mentioned the robotaxi concept since 2020, suggested that the car, nicknamed “Cybercab,” might have a design inspired by the Cybertruck. The launch event will take place at the Warner Bros. Discovery studio in Burbank, California, USA.
The reveal was previously postponed in August due to a design change requested by Musk and the need to build additional prototypes for demonstrations. Few details about the vehicle have been released, but it will use Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving systems and will be part of a new on-demand ride-hailing app from the company, which will integrate both the robotaxis and consumer cars.
