Tesla’s recent rollout of its two‑seat Cybercab has prompted a probe, as regulators scrutinize the company’s move into commercial vehicle services. The automaker began deploying a limited fleet of the Cybercab on Thursday, with plans to scale up to more vehicles over time. The investigation will examine safety, compliance, and licensing issues related to the new autonomous ride‑share offering. Tesla’s expansion into this niche market comes amid growing interest in autonomous transportation solutions.
The probe comes after Tesla on Thursday began commercial deployment of a small number of the two-seater Cybercab and said it planned to gradually expand the service to additional vehicles.
