"So, yeah, Cybercab is just not going to have steering wheels and pedals. It's fully designed and optimized for autonomy. It'll cost roughly $25,000, so it is a $25,000 car. And you will be able to buy one and use it exclusively if you want. So, it just won't have a steering wheel and pedals. You don't need it" — Elon Musk, Tesla Q3 2024 Earnings Call

.Kyle Conner makes some good points that the Cybercab is (obviously) designed for autonomous driving, and not manual driving: "It would be kind of bad to drive because you have massive A-pillars. The windshield doesn't come up very high. You sit way too far back, so clearly this is not designed to be a driven vehicle. I thought maybe the early ones would ship with a steering wheel. You're not driving this thing with A-pillars like that."

Elon Musk: The Cybercab will have no steering wheel or pedals—and production starts in Q2 next year “Now we have a dedicated product which is the Cybercab, which has no steering wheel or pedals, which are obviously vestigial in a autonomous world. And we start production of the Cybercab in Q2 next year and we'll scale that up to quite high volume. I think ultimately, we'll make millions of Cybercabs per year. But it is important to emphasize that all of our cars are capable of being robotic taxis.” All-In Podcast, October 31, 2025

It would make sense for Cybercab to have Brembo’s Sensify Braking system, which is a fully software-controlled, fluid-free braking system. Brembo said they’re working with a “major undisclosed global manufacturer” entering series production in the hundreds of thousands. It could very well be Cybercab. Each wheel has its own dedicated electric actuator with redundancies. It would make sense for Cybercab, since the whole vehicle is being driven by AI already. The system offers higher efficiency and more control over brake operation. It is fully customizable and designed for autonomous vehicles as well. You can read more about it in the post below.

GOOD NEWS ⚙️ During the launch event, Tesla Semi program lead Dan Priestley and Tesla engineering executive Lars Moravy said that Tesla has extensively redesigned the Semi’s drivetrain for volume production 🔥 The original Plaid-derived motor used a carbon-fiber-sleeved rotor, but Tesla replaced it with a steel-caged design intended to be cheaper, lighter, more efficient and more reliable. A stator shared with Cybertruck also allows Tesla to reuse an existing design and production line. Altogether, the redesigned drive axle is approximately 80 kg lighter. Tesla also replaced hydraulic steering with a fully redundant electric steer-by-wire system based on Cybertruck technology. Tesla says it eliminates hydraulic losses and leaks, makes the truck autonomous-ready and delivers exceptionally fast, precise steering. Combined with precise throttle control and greater wheel cut, it gives the Semi a turning radius reportedly close to a Model Y—making it easier to maneuver in cities and loading docks.

CYBERCAB & THE AUTONOMOUS FUTURE: TESLA’S VISION FOR A WORLD WITHOUT STEERING WHEELS – ELON MUSK ON THE END OF HUMAN DRIVING Cybercab is more than a robotaxi—it’s the physical manifestation of Tesla’s bet that full autonomy will make human-driven cars obsolete. No steering wheel, no pedals, no driver—just summon, ride, and arrive cheaper, safer, and greener than any alternative. With production targeted for in Q2’26, Cybercab paves the way for a transportation revolution where personal car ownership becomes optional and roads become dramatically safer. “The future is autonomous. Once you have unsupervised FSD that’s safer than human drivers, owning a car becomes optional for most people. Cybercab will cost so little per mile that it will be cheaper to use a robotaxi than to own and maintain a vehicle.” This shift changes everything: • Cost collapse — ~$0.20–$0.30 per mile vs. today’s $1+ for rideshares or $0.60–$1.00 for personal car ownership (including depreciation, insurance, fuel/charging, maintenance). • Safety leap — Unsupervised FSD eliminates the ~94% of crashes caused by human error—potentially saving hundreds of thousands of lives annually once scaled. • Abundance of mobility — Fleets of Cybercabs run 24/7 at high utilization, turning idle time into revenue and freeing up parking space for parks, housing, and commerce. • Environmental win — Electric, efficient, and shared—massive reduction in emissions compared to today’s car-centric infrastructure. • New economy — Owners can add their Cybercabs (or future autonomous Teslas) to the network for passive income; cities rethink zoning, traffic, and public transit. Cybercab isn’t the endgame—it’s the beginning of an era where transportation becomes a utility like electricity or internet: always available, incredibly cheap, and far safer than today. From Model S proving EVs could be desirable to Cybercab proving autonomy can be ubiquitous, Tesla is rewriting mobility.

Driving through the mountains of Utah today, watching Tesla FSD handle the drive while I simply took in the scenery, I couldn’t stop thinking about where this is all heading. I really believe there will come a day when steering wheels, pedals, and even manually driving a car will feel as outdated as riding a horse to work or using a flip phone today. People will look back and wonder why we spent so much time stuck behind the wheel when technology could do it more safely and let us use that time for the things that actually matter to us. That’s why I think Tesla FSD is one of the most consequential technologies being developed today. It gives people their time back, reduces stress on long drives, and it enables a future with far fewer crashes & deaths. If autonomous driving reaches its full potential, which I believe it will, it will fundamentally change how we live, travel, and connect with one another. Sitting here while my Cybertruck drives through scenery like this, it feels like I’m watching the beginning of a massive shift in transportation and I bet future generations will wonder how we ever accepted driving ourselves anywhere.

The Cybercab is aiming to produce 2 million units per year. Let this sink in. Today, Tesla produces about ~1.7 million vehicles per year total, across its entire lineup. And now Tesla is preparing to outproduce that with one single vehicle, a fully autonomous one. This is Elon and Tesla going ALL-IN on autonomy. Production is scheduled to start April 2026 at Giga Texas, with volume ramping throughout the year. And as of early 2026, Cybercab prototypes are already being tested around the U.S. The Tesla Cybercab is built from the ground up for unsupervised autonomy. There is no steering wheel and no pedals, just cameras, AI, and Tesla’s custom inference computers. No lidar and radar like other companies, just pure vision and software. Elon put it best on the Q3 2024 earnings call: “It’s not just a revolutionary vehicle design, but a revolution in vehicle manufacturing that is also coming with the Cybercab.” That quote matters a lot bc that means the entire way a vehicle is manufactured is changing with the Cybercab. Tesla is designing what Elon calls “the machine that builds the machine.” The Cybercab uses Tesla’s unboxed manufacturing process, where major sections are built in parallel instead of one long assembly line. There are fewer parts, less steps & cost, and faster scale. That’s how you make 2 million Cybercabs per year possible. FYI, this is not going to be easy though. Elon has been brutally honest about production for many years: • “Prototypes are easy, production is hard.” • “The extreme difficulty of scaling production of new technology is poorly understood. It’s 1000% to 10,000% harder than making a few prototypes.” • “For cars, it’s maybe 100 times harder to design the manufacturing system than the car itself.” He reinforced this again in January 2026 when talking about Cybercab and Optimus on 𝕏: “Initial production is always very slow and follows an S-curve. The speed of the production ramp is inversely proportional to how many new parts and steps there are. For Cybercab and Optimus, almost everything is new, so the early production rate will be agonizingly slow - but eventually end up being insanely fast.” This is the key thing most people miss about Tesla manufacturing. Early output will be slow by design. Almost everything is new like the vehicle architecture, factory layout, AI hardware, and manufacturing flow. But once it works and clicks, it begins to scale hard. Tesla already proved they can do this. They survived Model 3 production hell. They turned Model Y into the BEST selling car in the world, of any kind. They ramped Cybertruck, which has over 30,000+ unique parts, to meaningful volume. Elon summed it up perfectly in 2024: “Compared to the insane pain of reaching high volume, positive margin production, prototypes are a piece of cake.” That’s why Tesla makes manufacturing look easy bc they already earned the scars from the last vehicle lineups. The Cybercab is aiming to be: 1/ Under $30,000 price 2/ ~$0.20 per mile operating cost 3/ 200+ mile range 4/ Up to 5x utilization vs personal cars 5/ Designed to run nearly nonstop 24/7 This is what you call manufacturing + AI + autonomy converging at scale. The competitors are still showing prototypes and demos, while Tesla is building new production lines, expanding factories, and actually building the product. I remember when Elon told me in the past that one of Tesla’s key advantage long term was going to be manufacturing technology. I get it now.

1. This is Elon Musk presenting what the future of cars, referred to as Cybercabs, will look like in less than two years. He presented this at the “We, Robot” event, where he introduced autonomous vehicles and robots. The unfortunate reality is that, on the same day when the world’s richest man, known for his work in technology, was presenting this, Zimbabwe’s ambassador to Europe and the Americas, and President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s advisor, made the most embarrassing, outrageous, and foolish remarks about Elon Musk and his companies. See Twitter 2 below. He called this anti-Christ and the work of the devil. Africa is cursed for sure with such idiots in power, how can it develop? These vehicles, like Tesla’s Model Y and Cybercab, aim to reduce travel costs, maximise vehicle usage, and enhance convenience. Musk compared autonomous transport to past innovations like elevators and said that autonomous cars are becoming safer and more efficient than human driving. Musk envisions cities with fewer parking lots, replaced by parks, thanks to reduced car ownership needs. Autonomous vehicles are expected to roll out fully by 2026. Robovans, designed for high-density travel and goods transport, were also introduced. The event showcased these technologies, promising an exciting future of autonomy and robotics.

A Breakthrough in Robotics: Spherical Gears Enter Mass Production Spherical gears, the kind of joint that would allow a robot to move like a human shoulder, have been notoriously difficult to manufacture with high precision. That's changing, thanks to a new design and a path to mass production that could have a huge impact on robotics. The breakthrough comes from a new design called the ABENICS spherical gear, developed by researchers at Yamagata University. This innovative mechanism enables a joint to move in three degrees of freedom without the slippage issues of earlier designs. It achieves this by using a "cross-spherical gear" that meshes with one or more "monopole gears." Mass production is now on the horizon. Although the initial manufacturing of the gears was inefficient, Nissei Corporation improved the process and established the necessary technology. The companies Kanematsu and Nissei have now entered the marketing phase, with production expected to begin in 2027. The impact of this technology is significant. Mass-produced spherical gears are expected to enable highly versatile and efficient robotic limbs. ► Humanoid and Mobile Robots: The design allows for compact, high-torque ball joints ideal for creating versatile and efficient robotic limbs. ► Aerospace: Potential applications include deployment mechanisms for satellite solar panels. ► Other Industries: The technology is also being explored for its potential to enhance productivity in healthcare, nursing care, and restaurants.
