Tesla Cybercab hits Austin streets without a steering wheel

Tesla’s upcoming Cybercab has been spotted doing the rounds in Austin, looking conspicuously devoid of anything as archaic as a steering wheel or pedals—because, let’s face it, who needs those anymore? The footage, shared by Elon Musk, offers a first-person passenger POV of the autonomous experience ahead of the company’s highly anticipated robotaxi reveal on 8 August. It appears the future of the daily commute involves a lot more legroom and a silent prayer that the software is having a particularly focused day.
