"Roughly 50 Cybercab units are visible across the campus, parked in tight organized rows. Most of the units visible still carry steering wheels and pedals, temporary additions Tesla included to satisfy current safety regulations while the vehicles accumulate real-world data ahead of full regulatory approval for a steering wheel-free design."
"Tesla operates dedicated Crash Labs at both its Giga Texas and Fremont facilities that are purpose-built for controlled structural crash tests. Historically, automakers begin intensive crash testing roughly one to two months before volume production kicks off."
"The first production Cybercab rolled off the Giga Texas line on February 17, 2026. Volume production is now targeted for April. Musk previously wrote on X that 'the early production rate will be agonizingly slow, but eventually end up being insanely fast.'"
Drone footage reveals over 50 Tesla Cybercab units at Giga Texas, organized near the crash testing facility. The outbound lot holds various Tesla models, including Cybertruck and Model Y. Most Cybercabs still have steering wheels and pedals for safety compliance while gathering data. Tesla's crash labs are preparing for intensive testing ahead of production. The first Cybercab was produced on February 17, 2026, with volume production aimed for April. Musk anticipates a slow initial production rate, targeting 2 million units annually and commercial service by late 2026.
