Cybercab is making its first public appearance in Japan today 🇯🇵 Tesla’s Cybercab Japan Tour officially kicks off in Tokyo at OMAKASE Aoyama Garden by GMO This is Japan’s first public look at Tesla’s purpose-built Robotaxi: • Two-seat design • No steering wheel • No pedals • Butterfly doors • Tesla’s largest-ever center touchscreen The tour continues next to Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo Shinjuku later this month Cybercab is starting to go global Tesla is taking its vision for autonomous transportation city by city around the world

If you knew absolutely nothing about this car and just saw it pull up, you’d probably think it costs much more than a Lambo. Butterfly doors. Futuristic design. No steering wheel. No pedals. Drives itself. It looks like a $1M car. But in reality, it’s going to be $30K.

The Tesla Cybercab launch was magical. I’ve spent years talking about what autonomous transportation would become. This week, I got to live it. And what surprised me most was NOT that the Cybercab had no steering wheel. It was NOT the butterfly doors. It was NOT even how futuristic the car looked. It was honestly how NORMAL it felt. I just get in. Sit down. Put my seatbelt on. Press one button. And go on w/ my life. No fear or anxiety at all. At one point I literally forgot there wasn’t a driver in front of me. The ride was unbelievably smooth. And that’s when it really hit me… this is how transportation changes… when the technology becomes so seamless that you stop thinking about the technology at all. The entire Cybercab experience is ridiculously simple: 1/ Order the Cybercab from your phone. 2/ It arrives, recognizes your phone, and can automatically open the door for you. 3/ Get in, buckle up, and the doors close. 4/ Press one button on the screen to begin the ride. 5/ You can work, talk, watch something, listen to music, enjoy the scenery… do whatever you want bc the car handles the entire driving. 6/ Arrive, get out, and payment is handled automatically via the app w/ no tipping. That’s it. Some people are probably still going to say: “Elon was late.” “FSD will never work.” “Tesla is still just a car company.” “Who would trust a car w/ no driver?” “Who would ever get into a car w/ no steering wheel or pedals?” “Cybercab/Robotaxis will never scale.” I’ve heard versions of this stuff for years… And yet here I was. Sitting inside the product. Paying for rides. Driving around Austin w/ nobody behind the wheel. After experiencing Cybercab myself, I understand what the Tesla team was building toward. The car. The autonomy. The safety. The software. The app. The pickup experience. The doors. The payment. The entire experience had to feel like ONE product. Bc if Tesla gets that experience right and then scales it across America, this becomes MUCH bigger than another Tesla vehicle. It will change how people think about owning a car. It changes ride-hailing. It changes what we do with the time we currently spend driving. It changes transportation. And I think Tesla absolutely knocked this product out of the park. What makes this even more personal for me is how grateful I am that I was invited to experience this moment. As the only Korean in the world, being invited to the launch and getting the opportunity to be the first one to ride in a Cybercab is something I’ll remember for the rest of my life. Seriously. What a freaking life… hate me or love me, nothing honestly compares to this. Austin… Your food was incredible. The people were unbelievably kind to me. The city treated my family and me so well. I loved almost everything about you, except the heat. And Tesla and Elon… Thank you. You have genuinely changed the direction of my life. You gave me something I am deeply passionate about. The products. The technology. The people building them. The crazy ideas that sound impossible right up until the day they’re sitting in front of you. Today I head back to the Bay Area. But my mind can’t stop thinking about what I just experienced. There was a point when people started saying Tesla’s biggest growth days were behind it. After this week… I feel the exact opposite. Cybercab reignited that fire in me. It feels like I just watched the first few minutes of the next chapter/book of Tesla. And if what I experienced in Austin scales to cities around the country… Transportation will NEVER be the same. One day my kids will look back at human-driven cars the same way we look at an elevator operator today. Something that once seemed completely normal… until technology made it unnecessary. I came to Austin excited about Cybercab. I’m leaving even more excited about what comes next. The future is going to be so freaking amazing. Till next time, Austin!

When you arrive at your location, Cybercab will show a live feed of your surroundings, I love this. Upon exiting, the powered-butterfly doors will automatically close, and the car will drive off. The Ultimate Robotaxi experience.

Taking my FIRST EVER ride in a Tesla Cybercab! No steering wheel, no pedals. This was one of the most surreal moments of my life. The powered-butterfly doors auto-present when you walk up to it, and you can easily identify your Cybercab by the RGB lighting inside and out. IT DRIVES INCREDIBLY SMOOTH. It feels VERY solid, and it’s so quiet. The interior is next level, the amount of legroom is honestly ridiculous. By reclining the seats you can pretty much lie down in the car. The 21” screen is so crisp, watching videos on it is WILD. Best in-car UI experience you can have bar none, it’s not even close. MASSIVE congratulations to the entire Tesla team involved in creating this absolutely beautiful product. You guys are shaping the future. THANK YOU ❤️

TJR reveals how he got into Crypto “I first learned about crypto when I was a freshman in high school. There was this senior on our football team who gave us the whole ‘Bitcoin’s going to change the world’ pitch” “He ended up getting a brand new BMW i8 with butterfly doors and the license plate said Bitcoin. Once I saw that, I was like okay… I’m sold” “From there I pursued crypto pretty hard and that’s what led me into trading. I started trading currencies, I was trading the pound against the yen for a bit and then I would trade gold as well” Banks: “What gave you the idea to do that?” TJR: “I literally looked up day trading on YouTube. I was doing that pretty much all throughout high school and then the 2020 bull run is where I made the majority of my money” “From there I gradually switched over to trading equities and doing futures…”
