A dated step forward on the record · Company-reported
What the source says
“In short we’re trying to get Cybercabs to customers by the end of this year in 2026, obviously we’re producing a lot in Texas but all of those are going to our own internal Robotaxi fleet”
What it means
Cybercab, from Tesla, is at stage 4 of 5 on our ladder: paying customers. Its stage is set by other milestones on its record; this one adds to the history. This line rests on the company's own announcement; no regulator, customer or independent report confirms it in our sources yet.
Human help: The maker hasn't said whether people help it remotely.
