Tesla’s highly anticipated Cybercab robotaxi model is being introduced. Cybercab, which will be unveiled tomorrow (October 11) at the “We, robot” event, will have full autonomous driving capability and will completely eliminate traditional driving equipment such as steering wheels and pedals. So where can you watch it live?
Tesla’s robotaxi model Cybercab is being introduced! How and where to watch it live?
The concept that Elon Musk announced nearly eight years ago is finally coming to the stage after a long wait. However, some reports suggest that only visuals of the vehicle will be shown at the event, not an actual prototype. So, it might be a bit disappointing for those who have been waiting for this project for years. You can access the live stream of the event, which will start at 5 p.m. Turkey time, here.
Notable features of Cybercab’s design include “butterfly wing” style doors that open upwards and a two-seater front cabin. Musk claims that the robotaxi service this vehicle will offer will be the most cost-effective transportation option ever for users.
It is even stated that the cost may be even lower than the price of a bus or subway ticket. Meanwhile, with the new model, Tesla wants to offer autonomous vehicles not only as a means of personal transportation but also as a source of income. Car owners will be able to earn additional income by offering Cybercab as an autonomous taxi when they don’t need it.
However, before full autonomous driving can be implemented on a large scale, regulatory approvals must first be obtained. As other big players such as Waymo and Cruise have experienced, this process can be challenging and lengthy. It remains to be seen how fast Tesla will be able to move forward.
In short, whether Tesla can actually realize this project will depend not only on the technology but also on the legal processes. What do you think about this? You can write your opinions in the comments section below.
