Tesla Robotaxi Cybercab Fleet Hits 49 in Texas DMV Records

Tesla’s purpose-built Cybercab count in Texas automated-vehicle records has moved up by four, according to Texas Department of Motor Vehicles listings shared on September 8, 2026, bringing the registered Robotaxi Cybercab fleet to 49 after earlier public tallies had sat near 45 ahead of Austin’s public-ride launch.
Screenshots of the state automated motor vehicle roster show additional Cybercab entries under Tesla’s Robotaxi authorization, with the net Cybercab total at 49. The records track which vehicles are listed for commercial automated operation in Texas; they do not by themselves prove how many of those cars are actively taking paid rides in Austin on any given hour, only that Tesla has registered more of the two-seaters into the authorized fleet.

That step matters because Cybercab only recently joined Model Y robotaxis on Texas roads for public service, and the early Cybercab pool was still counted in the mid-forties in statewide reporting just days earlier. Adding four more registrations is a small absolute bump, but it is the clearest public signal since launch that Tesla is still feeding purpose-built cars into the same DMV pipeline rather than freezing the Cybercab roster at the launch figure.
Fleet size remains tiny next to Waymo’s Texas totals, and Austin’s Cybercab service area is still the near-term stage for riders. The registration climb still pairs with other September Cybercab hardware notes on the site, from Starlink modules showing up on Giga Texas hatches to Unboxed manufacturing that halves line size, as Tesla keeps turning production cars into listed Robotaxi units.
