Tesla has begun continuous production of its Cybercab robotaxi at the Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, marking a milestone in the company's autonomous vehicle ambitions. However, CEO Elon Musk has adopted an unusually cautious tone, emphasizing rigorous safety validation as the primary constraint on expansion. The company operates robotaxi services in only a handful of US cities, with Dallas and Houston launching with just two vehicles each after one week. Tesla has reported 14 crash incidents involving its robotaxis to federal regulators since launching in Austin a year ago, and unlike competitors, routinely redacts details about injuries. Musk acknowledged that production would remain slow until year-end before ramping exponentially.
