Tesla reveals first Cybercab design with integrated Starlink V5 antenna
Tesla has unveiled a design for its autonomous taxi, Cybercab, that integrates a Starlink V5 antenna alongside GPS and 5G LTE. The company described it as space-based high-speed internet for the future of autonomous vehicles. Starlink V5 is smaller and more power efficient than earlier models, with speeds of at least 375 Mbps. Some question the need for satellite internet in major U.S. cities where 5G is available.
