Tesla Cybercab posts record efficiency, but is there still a reason to sell my car?

Detailed specifications for Tesla’s two-seat self-driving robotaxi Cybercab were officially confirmed through U.S. Environmental Protection Agency certification documents. The filings show a 47.6 kWh battery, a 163 kW motor and an EPA combined range of 673 km, along with an average efficiency of 10.4 km per kWh, the highest ever certified by the EPA. The article argues that costs and convenience may still limit robotaxis from replacing private cars.

Why China leads in world models, a core technology for self-driving and robots

China is seen as ahead of the United States in world models, a technology viewed as the next battleground for generative AI. The approach aims to help AI understand and predict how the physical world works, enabling machines to learn space, motion and cause and effect for real actions. Industry figures cite China’s access to large-scale real-world data, manufacturing base, application scenarios and faster on-site experimentation as strengths, though gaps are not settled and issues remain.
