- The Tesla Cybercab, a two-seat EV without pedals and a steering wheel, is now offering robotaxi rides in Austin, Texas.
- The introduction follows a closed-door event where traditional media was not invited.
- Elon Musk, Tesla’s CEO and one of the biggest believers in vision-only self-driving cars, did not attend the launch.

A closed-door party attended mainly attended by Tesla enthusiasts and content creators—but apparently not Elon Musk—marked the occasion and was where a hand-picked group got the first rides.
