1️⃣ Tesla Cybercab Makes Its Global Debut in Paris
On June 12, 2025, at the VivaTech event in Paris, Tesla officially unveiled its fully autonomous Cybercab to the world. This compact, two-seater electric robotaxi is designed without a steering wheel, pedals, or driver controls—representing a bold step into a driverless future. Built around Tesla’s most advanced self-driving technology, Cybercab redefines urban mobility.
2️⃣ Futuristic Features That Redefine the Modern Vehicle
Cybercab is loaded with next-gen features that distinguish it from today’s vehicles. It supports inductive wireless charging, eliminating the need for physical cables. The design features sleek butterfly-style doors and no visible door handles, giving it a cutting-edge, futuristic appearance. According to Elon Musk, Tesla aims to price the vehicle at under $30,000, making robotaxi travel more accessible to the public.
3️⃣ Tesla’s European Tour Draws Excitement
As part of its promotional campaign, Tesla brought the Cybercab to several major cities across Europe—including Paris, Berlin, London, Stockholm, Oslo, and Amsterdam. In Paris, the vehicle was showcased at the Paris-Madeleine Tesla store from late November to early December 2024. The tour attracted attention from both enthusiasts and tech-watchers eager to witness Tesla’s vision of autonomous transport.
4️⃣ What’s Next: Production Plans and Market Reaction
Despite its technological promise, Cybercab’s reveal drew mixed reactions from investors, with Tesla’s stock dropping by nearly 9% following the event. Some analysts felt the presentation lacked immediate commercial clarity. However, Elon Musk confirmed that production is set to begin in 2026, and that in 2025, Tesla will roll out unsupervised full self-driving capabilities in the U.S. for models like the Model 3 and Model Y. The Cybercab marks a major leap toward everyday autonomous transportation.
