# Tesla confirms Cybercab launch coming next week

Tesla confirmed it will hold a Cybercab event in Austin on September 3, promoting it with a poster that reads “Exclusive Access: Cybercab.” It’s an invite-only affair for the top scorers in its Robotaxi rider sweepstakes, and Tesla says it will livestream the launch for everyone else.

The framing suggests something big is coming. What’s actually coming is a two-seat car with no steering wheel added to the same driverless service Tesla has been running in Austin for over a year — a fleet that our tracking still puts at roughly two dozen unsupervised vehicles.

## What “exclusive access” actually means

Strip away the event copy and the news is narrow: the Cybercab becomes available to hail through Tesla’s existing Robotaxi app in Austin, alongside, or in place of, the Model Ys already doing the driving.

The invitations are going to the riders who logged the most Robotaxi trips, plus mail-in entrants, with winners announced August 26. Attendees have to be 21, and the RSVP deadline is August 30. Tesla describes it as a chance to “experience the future of autonomy.”
