Tesla Cybercab Makes Asia-Pacific Debut at 2025 CIIE; Priced Under $30,000 for 2026 Production

At the 2025 China International Import Expo (CIIE), the Tesla Cybercab autonomous electric taxi made its Asia-Pacific debut. The vehicle operates without a steering wheel, pedals, or side mirrors and is fully driven by artificial intelligence. According to earlier information, it will be priced below $30,000 (approximately RMB 217,600) and is scheduled to begin mass production in early 2026, serving the autonomous ride-hailing market. It has been reported that by the end of 2025, Tesla’s Robotaxi fleet will expand to 500 vehicles in Austin, Texas, and 1,000 vehicles in the California Bay Area.

Exterior Design

The Tesla Cybercab inherits the brand’s design language while incorporating a more futuristic aesthetic, which Elon Musk has stated was inspired by Blade Runner. The vehicle features a range of innovative design elements aimed at reducing drag, including a tapered front and rear profile and an overall minimalist form. The front is equipped with a full-width light strip, with the upper section serving as the daytime running lights and the sides housing dual-lens headlamp clusters. The front end curves upward on both sides, contributing to the low-drag design.

From the side, the vehicle adopts a fastback silhouette and is fitted with large enclosed wheel covers. The doors open in a falcon-wing style. At the rear, it features a one-piece fastback tailgate without a rear window, along with a full-width taillight design that echoes the bold, angular styling of the Cybertruck.

Interior

The interior of the Tesla Cybercab is configured with two seats and eliminates traditional controls such as the steering wheel and pedals. A central touchscreen is the primary interface, maintaining an extremely clean and simple layout. The seats are designed more like spacious home sofas rather than traditional bolstered automotive seats, emphasizing comfort. The cabin also includes a center armrest and dual cupholders.

It has been reported that the trunk can accommodate two carry-on suitcases, meeting the basic storage needs of a Robotaxi service.

Powertrain

The Cybercab will use an all-electric powertrain with a battery pack smaller than 50 kWh, yet it achieves a real-world range of nearly 500 km, making it one of the most efficient electric vehicles currently available.
