EV maker Tesla (TSLA) appears to be speeding up its real-world testing of the highly anticipated Cybercab. In fact, this week, several videos have surfaced on social media showing the autonomous two-seater being tested in multiple U.S. states. One notable sighting took place at Apple’s Visitor Center in California, where a prototype equipped with a steering wheel and modified brake lights looked close to production-ready.

Other recent tests were spotted at Tesla’s Fremont factory test track and in Austin, Texas, where both featured what seemed to be production-grade vehicles. These consistent sightings across different locations suggest that the Cybercab’s development is progressing quickly and that Tesla may be preparing for mass production in the near future.
Adding to that impression, Tesla recently displayed a near-final version of the Cybercab at its Santana Row showroom in San Jose. Interestingly, the vehicle featured frameless windows, butterfly door struts, and updated interior components, such as redesigned seats and improved legroom. Given that Elon Musk stated at the 2025 Annual Shareholder Meeting that production will begin around April 2026, it’s likely that the final design has already been finalized.
