Elon Musk to unveil Tesla's Cybercab robotaxi prototype at upcoming event
Summary: Elon Musk is set to unveil Tesla's self-driving "robotaxi," called the Cybercab, at the "We, Robot" event on Thursday. This marks a significant step after previous delays, with expectations for a prototype and updates on Tesla's autonomous vehicle plans.
The Cybercab will be Tesla's first fully autonomous vehicle, differing from current models that still require a driver. The event will also showcase other potential vehicles, including a rumored autonomous passenger van and updates on Tesla's Full Self-Driving software.
Tesla faces competition from established players like Waymo, which has been operating autonomous vehicles for years. The company must also address regulatory concerns and public skepticism about self-driving technology as it prepares for this product launch.
