Tesla plans to produce autonomous taxis in Europe
The Cybercab, a two-seat vehicle about four meters long without a steering wheel and pedals, apparently differs in the European version from the original prototype. While the latter was equipped with gullwing doors, the model from Brandenburg is supposed to have conventional doors. The control is exclusively carried out by cameras, which are heated for winter operation. In emergencies, a technician can intervene remotely via a joystick system.
The Cybercab is designed for all-electric operation and is equipped with a battery of at least 60 kWh. This is to be charged inductively, i.e., wirelessly via a multi-coil system. The technology was developed by the Berlin start-up Wiferion, which was initially acquired by Tesla in 2023, then resold, but its developers were retained in the company. The charging power of 11 kW allows a full charge overnight.
Market launch uncertain
Tesla plans to test the Cybercab in several regions in the USA later this year. In Europe, on the other hand, both technical and regulatory hurdles need to be overcome before approval can be granted. According to the company, the factory in Grünheide is intended not only to supply the European market but also to handle exports to the Near and Middle East as well as to Taiwan.
The vehicle should not cost more than 30,000 dollars at purchase, equivalent to around 28,000 euros. Alternatively, usage via an app is to be enabled, where rides can be individually booked and paid for. However, the introduction remains dependent on the market readiness of Tesla's autonomous driving software.
Base version of the Model Y as a foundation
According to Edison, the Cybercab is based on a new variant of the Model Y. Tesla is thus developing a shorter, more cost-effective version of the mid-size SUV, which is intended to serve as an affordable entry-level model. Production is to initially start in China, before commencing in Grünheide as well.
