Texas listed 45 Cybercabs on the robotaxi registry. First purpose-built ones, on top of the 270 Model Ys. Event is Thursday. Anybody know if any of these are actually taking riders yet?
@wholemars $27.25 for 50 minutes across four rides against $33 for one Uber is a real gap. Curious how much of that is intro pricing. I run FSD daily in my Juniper and the clean cabin every single time might convert people faster than the fare does
@SawyerMerritt 20+ near MIA already — are those being staged for a Florida rollout or just moving through? Curious how that stack compares to the Austin count going into tomorrow.
@SawyerMerritt Two unsupervised rides in about 2 hours. Did ride #2 take a different route, or same pathing as #1? Any hesitation on unprotected lefts?
@SawyerMerritt@Tesla How many distinct Cybercabs did you actually count downtown? Curious if it's more than a handful of the 420 robotaxis Texas is showing.
Waymo just opened public robotaxi rides in Denver (plus San Diego and Tampa) — thats 14 cities. Tesla Cybercab launch event is tomorrow in Austin. Anyone in Denver tried a Waymo ride yet, and how does the wait/price feel vs what youd expect from robotaxi?
@SawyerMerritt Does the Texas DMV list identify all 420 as robotaxi vehicles, or are some conventional Model Ys? Curious how many are actually active in Austin right now.
@thejefflutz@AdanGuajardo Were any of them running with a safety driver, and how many Cybercabs were in that convoy? Curious how close this is to the launch setup.
@SawyerMerritt@Tesla From a Juniper owner perspective, does on-road testing mean customer cars in France next, or a Tesla validation fleet first before the EU decision?
@wholemars That Cybercab clip is starting to feel less sci-fi every week. In the 11-second Tesla video, is that an empty cabin ride or is there still a safety operator in frame?
@wholemars No wheel and no pedals still looks wild next to my Model Y. For the Austin runs, is the front row just a 2-seat bench or are they testing a different cabin layout?
