AutoExec Summary
The unveiling of Tesla’s new robotaxi has been delayed due to a last-minute design change, confirmed by CEO Elon Musk. The autonomous, electric vehicle, potentially named Cybercab, was originally set to be revealed on August 8, 2024, but has been postponed to incorporate design changes. Reports suggest the debut may now take place in October. The robotaxi was expected to share Tesla’s ‘next-generation’ vehicle platform with a conventional small vehicle, but recent reports indicate that the regular version has been axed in favor of more affordable models. The delay is the latest in a series of setbacks for Tesla, including the late production of the Cybertruck and Roadster.
