US EditionTesla Fans Think This Reviewer Will Have to Shave His Hair Due to Musk's $30,000 Cybercab Claim
Tesla claims the Cybercab will sell under $30,000 by year-end despite ongoing doubts about its unsupervised full self-driving capability and delayed mass production.
- On February 17, Elon Musk, Tesla CEO, reiterated Tesla will sell a steering-wheel-less Cybercab for under $30,000 after the first unit rolled off Giga Texas, sparking memes about a head-shaving bet.
- A decade of promises reveals Elon Musk’s repeated missed autonomy timelines from 2015 predictions through claims until 2024, documented on Wikipedia’s List of predictions for autonomous Tesla vehicles.
- The Cybercab lacks a steering wheel or pedals, so it depends on truly solved unsupervised FSD, with production expected to start in April and Tesla's 8 billion miles milestone reached this week.
- Trademark and legal setbacks include a California judge finding Tesla's FSD claims `actually, unambiguously false and counterfactual`, while Tesla loses the `Cybercab` trademark to a French seltzer company.
- Until Tesla demonstrates a Cybercab completing a paying-customer delivery without a steering wheel, skeptics say Brownlee's on-camera shave remains premature.
