About the Cybercab

Purpose-built autonomy. Zero compromises.

The Tesla Cybercab is a two-passenger fully autonomous ride service vehicle with no steering wheel and no pedals. Butterfly doors open automatically, inductive (wireless) charging eliminates plugs, and a large center touchscreen is the only interface.

It is the lightest Tesla ever at 3,113 lbs, powered by a single front-mounted permanent-magnet motor producing 219 hp. The efficient ~48 kWh battery delivers an estimated 293 miles of real-world range while achieving a record efficiency of approximately 165 Wh/mi — the most efficient production EV to date.

Starting price target is under $30,000. Order yours at Tesla.com or download the mobile app to ride in a Robotaxi today!

FAQ

Common questions about Cybercab ownership economics

When will private Cybercab ownership be available?

Tesla has targeted volume production for the network first. Private ownership is expected later — currently guided toward 2026–2027 depending on regulatory and production progress.

How realistic are the $0.25/mile operating costs?

They are conservative estimates based on Tesla’s public efficiency claims, low energy cost, and expected network fees. Real numbers will vary by region, electricity rates, and utilization.

Will the vehicle be allowed on the public Robotaxi network?

That is the plan. Owners are expected to be able to add their Cybercab to the Tesla network and earn revenue when not in personal use (subject to Tesla’s final terms).
