Tesla's Driverless Cybercab Debuts in Austin Without Fanfare

Tesla held an invite-only event in Austin to showcase its Cybercab, a two-seater without steering wheels or pedals, but barred attendees from posting until hours later and CEO Elon Musk was absent. Forty-five of these vehicles are now registered for Tesla's robotaxi network in Texas, though the company has repeatedly missed past autonomy milestones. The event is seen as a critical test for Tesla's pivot from carmaker to AI robotics company.
