Autonomous cleaning robot for Tesla Cybercab

Tesla has released a new video of its fully custom autonomous cleaning robot arm that will take care of the Cybercab autonomous driving vehicle from the inside.

At We Robot even in October, Tesla released its Cybercab, a fully autonomous self-driving electric vehicle (EV). It is built from the ground up and shares some distinct features from Cybertruck as well as other models.

The front and rear have a lightbar and it has only one row for passengers. The vehicle has no driving wheel or paddle and the footrest is large enough to get an extra comfortable ride.

The rear side has a huge space for passengers to put their luggage and carry the ride. This vehicle will run 24×7 all day for the public featuring unsupervised full self-driving (FSD) technology.

Similar to its autonomous behavior, Tesla has no interest in employing humans to manage the Cybercab fleet. Instead, it has designed two distinct technologies that will take over the most important tasks.

This autonomous robot in the video is one of them. It starts the work as soon as the Cybercab parks in a precise location.

The video shows the robot cleaning the seats with debris of eatables such as snacks. Its vacuum can hold and uplift small bags, clean the floor, pick bottles, and clean the front screen as well.

The robot arm has different modes such as a screen cleaning add-on with cloth on top or a vacuum suction add-on to clean the seat and the floor. Not only that, it can also uplift the arm support.

Another thing to notice is the complexity of the robot, which has hydraulics and rotators to reach and expand the entire passenger area. Watch the full video here.

Charging

That goes for the autonomous cleaning robot but Tesla has also designed a wireless charging for this tech, which was demonstrated previously.

With that, the car can stop over a wireless charging pad and it will start transferring the energy and prepare the vehicle to pick up a new customer.

Tesla has plans to start Cybercab production in late 2026, which could be delayed to 2027 due to line setup.
