Elon Musk unveiled the Tesla Cybercab, a prototype robotaxi designed as a low-slung, two-seater coupe, with plans for production starting in 2026 at a price under $30,000. Analysts have expressed skepticism about the viability of a two-seater taxi model, as it does not cater to the typical needs of passengers, such as families or groups, leading to a 9% drop in Tesla's stock following the announcement. Experts noted that the market for two-door vehicles is limited, comprising only 2% of U.S. car sales, and highlighted the need for robotaxis to have more space and practicality. Musk aims for the Cybercab to be cheaper to operate than mass transit, estimating a cost of 20 cents per mile, but has not clarified production timelines or regulatory challenges. Additionally, he showcased a robovan capable of seating up to 20 people, though details about its availability were not provided. The launch raises questions about how Tesla will compete with established robotaxi services like Waymo, which already operates a fleet in U.S. cities.
