## Key points

- Tesla aims to sell Cybercabs by the end of 2026.
- The two-seat vehicle has no steering wheel or traditional controls.
- US safety rules and an investigation could affect the plan.

## Summary

Tesla says it plans to begin selling its driverless Cybercab to customers by the end of 2026, starting with small deliveries as it gains experience managing autonomous vehicles. The announcement matters because federal safety regulators are investigating whether the two-seat vehicle, which has no steering wheel or conventional controls, meets current requirements.

Tesla says Cybercabs being built now are for its own robotaxi fleet, and most vehicles are expected to remain Tesla-owned and provide rides as a service. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation after Cybercabs began operating on Austin’s public streets; current US rules require manual controls and mirrors. Elon Musk also said unsupervised Full Self-Driving for customer cars is expected in the second quarter of 2027, after repeated delays.
