Tesla Cybercab has no brake lines or fluid; uses electric brake actuators

Tesla unveiled the production version of the Cybercab, a two-seat EV without a steering wheel or pedals, which also removes the traditional hydraulic braking system. It uses no brake fluid or hydraulic lines; instead, each brake caliper has an independent electronic actuator applying braking force directly to the rotor, implementing a dry brake-by-wire system. This design reduces complexity and cost by eliminating components like the hydraulic master cylinder and fluid reservoir. Additionally, the system allows variable braking force per wheel, enhancing control. The supplier remains undisclos
