It also includes a production-spec front lightbar with integrated headlights, new wheel covers, and a license plate bracket.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the vehicle now has two windshield wipers instead of the prototype\u2019s single unit, along with powered door struts, seemingly for smoother opening of its butterfly doors. Inside, the Cybercab now sports what appears to be a redesigned dash and door panels, updated carpet material, and slightly refined seat cushions with new center cupholders. Its legroom seems to have gotten slightly larger as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Tesla Cybercab in its new, more production-ready design is now on DISPLAY at Tesla Santana Row in San Jose!<\/p>\n<p>This is our best look yet at the new slightly updated interior &amp; exterior: <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 New frameless window design.<br \/>\u2022 Slightly updated front bumper design (bottom splitter\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/H3HHpdYJkF\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/H3HHpdYJkF<\/a>\u2014 Nic Cruz Patane (@niccruzpatane) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/niccruzpatane\/status\/2000225678378017068?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">December 14, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here&#8217;s a comparison between the early Tesla Cybercab interior design and the newer, more production-ready interior.<\/p>\n<p>New carpet material, seats, dashboard, and door panels.

At the end of October, the Tesla AI team teased some of the autonomous two-seater\u2019s updates after it showed a photo of the vehicle being driven through an In-N-Out drive-through by employees in Halloween costumes. The photos of the Cybercab were fun, but they were significant, with longtime Tesla watchers noting that the company has a tradition of driving its prototypes through the fast food chain\u2019s drive-throughs.<\/p>\n<p>Even at the time, Tesla enthusiasts noticed that the Cybercab had received some design changes, such as segmented DRLs and headlamps, actual turn signals,\u00a0and a splitter that\u2019s a lot sharper. Larger door openings, which now seem to have been teasing the vehicle\u2019s updated cabin, were also observed at the time.\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tesla has showcased what appears to be a near-production-ready Cybercab at its Santana Row showroom in San Jose,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":95232,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[93,88,90,89,1090,52347],"class_list":["post-95231","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-jose","tag-featured","tag-san-jose","tag-san-jose-headlines","tag-san-jose-news","tag-tesla","tag-tesla-cybercab"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=95231"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95231\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/95232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=95231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=95231"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=95231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
