Tesla’s robotaxi event: all the news and announcements

Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed a prototype of the company’s first fully driverless vehicle tonight during its long-awaited robotaxi event. The new vehicle is dubbed the Cybercab, and Tesla let guests at the event ride around in them at the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, California. The night’s surprise, however, was a brand-new “Robovan” transport vehicle that can be configured as “mass transit” or a cargo carrier.

For years, Musk has been promising that a driverless Tesla vehicle was just “two years away.” Many delays later, Musk has shown fans and investors something. Their reaction to the “We, Robot” event will be a referendum on whether Musk can deliver real self-driving technology that can compete with robotaxi companies like Waymo and Cruise.
