Tesla Cybercab Spotted in Austin in the Wild

For the first time, a Tesla Cybercab, one of the driverless and steering wheel-less autonomous robotaxis, was spotted in the wild in Austin.

Tesla has been testing robotaxis based on the Model Y with Full Self Driving for several weeks, and for the past few days without a driver, and now as a Cybercab. The images do not reveal whether anyone was sitting in the vehicle or whether it was being controlled from inside by a human.
