First Tesla Cybercab is out of the production line

Tesla produced the first Cybercab straight off the line at Giga Texas. This purpose-built autonomous vehicle brings the company one step closer to reshaping urban transport with driverless rides that cost little and run around the clock.

CEO Elon Musk said that full production begins in April for this model, which skips any steering wheel or pedals. The whole setup marks a fresh approach to building cars, one that targets five times the usual output once it hits stride.

They engineered the manufacturing process with big changes from the start. Early numbers always crawl along an S-curve when everything stays new, Musk noted, so the first batches move slowly. Yet that same setup sets the stage for huge volumes down the road because nearly every component breaks fresh ground.

Tesla keeps the target price under thirty thousand dollars. That level opens the door for fleet owners and everyday buyers who want to add the car to the shared network and earn from it. The Cybercab seats two passengers in a clean, efficient cabin built around Tesla’s vision-only self-driving tech, which handles all navigation without extra sensors.

This milestone lands right after Musk confirmed the April timeline and as the company winds down Model S and X output next quarter to focus harder on autonomy. Tesla already runs robotaxi services in Austin with current vehicles, but the dedicated Cybercab takes things further with a simpler design and lower costs overall.
