Quick answers

FAQ teaser

Full FAQ →
Can I ride a Cybercab?

The Austin debut used invite-only guest rides in downtown Austin. There was no verified public Cybercab hail in the Robotaxi app at launch. App builds have included Cybercab-related features (auto doors, rider/safety/first-responder guides) — that is not the same as open hailing. Check Tesla’s Robotaxi app for current availability. Launch briefing.

Is this Tesla’s website?

No. Tesla Cybercabs is independent. We are not affiliated with Tesla, Inc. Official product and ride questions belong in Tesla’s app, vehicle, or investor channels.

Was a consumer price under $30,000 announced for retail sale?

Sub-$30k figures have been previously floated by Tesla executives and widely repeated since the October 2024 unveil. Treat them as unconfirmed for a retail Cybercab you can buy today. Timeline.
