Tesla confirms Cybercab production version lacks manual controls
Tesla revealed in its First Responders Guide that the Cybercab, a ride-hailing vehicle in production since April, will not have a steering wheel or pedals in its final version. Only engineering or test vehicles include these controls and operate at SAE Level 2 autonomy. This official confirmation aligns with Cybercabs seen at Giga Texas without manual controls, ruling out passenger manual takeover in emergencies. The guide aims to instruct firefighters and paramedics on how to handle accidents or critical situations involving the Cybercab.
- Production Cybercab lacks steering wheel and pedals; only test vehicles have them
