Tesla’s Cybercab launch event in Austin on Sept. 3 could include a plan to deploy more than 1,000 robotaxis, but the key test will be how many vehicles are actually operating on public roads a month later. The two-seat Cybercab was first shown in October 2024, and the event may resemble a reintroduction. Expectations include integration into Tesla’s robotaxi service, possible expansion to more cities, and an unsupervised format using the same FSD system.

Uber will add a feature to teen accounts that lets parents or guardians briefly view live video from a driver’s smartphone front camera during a ride. The feature requires driver consent and notifies the teen and the driver when video is being viewed. Uber said access is limited to the linked parent or guardian and stops automatically at the end of the trip. It said encrypted recordings are kept and deleted after 14 days unless needed for safety investigations.
