Tesla quietly launched its driverless Cybercab robotaxis in Austin, Texas, two years after unveiling and far later than Elon Musk's initial predictions. The two-door, no-steering-wheel cabs join Tesla's existing Model Y robotaxi fleet, but face stiff competition from Waymo and Zoox, which have more experience and operational coverage.
