Here is another datapoint for those who say the Cybercabs with steering wheels are meant to be used with passengers. I was fortunate to capture this image today with the door open of one of the new vehicles in the outbound lot. I cropped in and adjusted the lighting to show that the engineering kit to add the steering wheel and pedals requires portions of the dashboard to be removed in order for this kit to be added. There is not a completed dashboard or interior pieces to make this into a completed, production ready vehicle. It was never intended to be ... these are meant for testing only and this version is not the final production version that will carry passengers. Really! For a bit more added context, there are two "lines" to make different versions of the Cybercab. There is the main production line for final versions that will be used for passengers and these vehicles are noticeably different from those used for the engineering test versions. Once these are observed, it will be obvious ... There is a parallel line that is meant only to make these engineering versions with a modular kit that includes the Cybertruck steering wheel, accelerator and brake pedals. This kit is bolted in after removing a part of the dashboard. These vehicles are wrapped with a golden color on top on non molded-in-color body panels. There is a need for the engineering versions for some time to come as new locations are added to the areas where Robotaxi service will be deployed and this will be true for quite some time.






This is scary in Lebanon 😳


Is Farzad ok? Did he make a million dollar deal bet @Kalshi or something? 😂 Nothing in his post makes any sense. Tesla is not making a version of the Cybercab with driving controls. The Cybercab is Teslas first built from the ground up vehicle for autonomy. The motors are not made to accelerate quickly, the car is not made to have great cornering ability like you would see from a Model 3, it will have a top speed of 90-100 mph, and every bit of it is to optimize efficiency. Tesla would have to completely redesign the Cybercab to add driving controls. Nothing could stay the same. “Now that V14.3 is out and it’s clearly not unsupervised” This is such a weird thing to say. Robotaxi who is using a variant of V14 is already unsupervised and no one LITERALLY NO ONE expected FSD V14.3 to come out UNSUPERVISED for customers. “Tesla has to secure the supply chain for millions of units” ???? The ramp of the Cybercab will be very slow at first. The entire unboxed process is new, Tesla will likely make 10 or so thousand vehicles this year and it could be way less maybe even a couple of thousand. Tesla can forecast out and adjust the supply chain as needed.




@ProfRobAnderson @TeslaBoomerMama So rather than face a different judge, the investor one has withdrawn? Nothing suspicious about that at all.
