Tesla Cybercab isn't a car for you to drive in the normal sense of the word, it's an autonomous taxi that will ferry people around and drive people into the future. During the UK unveiling, Tesla said the Cybercab will make electric transport 'democratised, affordable and fully autonomous' The Cybercab is 'a fully autonomous robotaxi designed to offer premium, individualised point-to-point electric mobility for everyone'. The Cybercab is a golden, ultra sleek, and - arguably - more stylish version of the Model 3 It's squared off and more angular, with scissor doors and just a single light bar front and back Bike-friendly, the taxi will be able to hold two carry-on bags and two check-in bags Many of the Cybercab's autonomous safety features are already in the Model 3 and Model Y, which means that owners of these EVs will be able to rent their cars out because the self-driving tech will be made available via over-the-air updates.
