What is the Tesla Cybercab? | Tesla Motors Club Podcast #63
About this episode
The Tesla Motors Club crew breaks down the latest earnings-call buzz: the Cybercab name for Tesla’s robo-taxi concept, the status of the Cybertruck recall, and what the new Model 3 Performance (Highland) changes actually bring. They debate whether Cybercab is just a stripped Model 3, how soon FSD could become truly reliable, and—big one—whether Tesla will license FSD to major automakers like Ford. The discussion also covers Tesla’s sales pressure, pricing/margins, and the Optimus vs Boston Dynamics robot race.
In this episode Seb, Mike, Doug, and Louis speculate about the Tesla autonomous Cybercab (01:08), discuss the much desired new Model 3 Performance (14:43), the Cybertruck accelerator pedal recall (20:35), Tesla possibly licensing FSD to another automaker (23:20), and Tesla’s Optimus vs. Boston Dynamics’ Atlas (37:13).
