The two-seat vehicle has no steering wheel or pedals and uses a modified version of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving software operated without an onboard driver, with remote intervention for anomalies. The rollout tests CEO Elon Musk’s long-held camera-focused approach. The company faces ongoing safety questions, potential shifts in liability and regulatory barriers to broader commercialization.
