Tesla Now Has 300+ Cybercabs in Austin; Dallas Is Next
Tesla says its Cybercab fleet in Austin now exceeds 300 vehicles, an 8x increase in 30 days according to the official Robotaxi account on X. When public rides began last month, the fleet reportedly started with about 38 Cybercabs. An independent count based on Texas registration data found around 169 units in early October. Ashok Elluswamy, Tesla's VP of AI, said Dallas is the next city, with no launch date given. Dallas already runs fully unsupervised Model Y rides across a 31-square-mile service area.…
- Tesla claims over 300 Cybercabs in Austin, an 8x increase in 30 days.
- Independent Texas registration count: about 169 Cybercabs in early October.
- Dallas is the next Cybercab city, with no confirmed launch date.
🔎 Why it matters: The figure of over 300 Cybercabs in Austin comes from Tesla and has no independent official verification; a Texas registration count found about 169. The Dallas expansion depends on that fleet already deployed.
📈 Upside: Austin's fleet grew from about 38 to over 300 Cybercabs in one month, according to Tesla.
📉 Risk: The NHTSA is awaiting Tesla's October 30 answers to 21 questions on certifying the steering wheel-less Cybercab.
