Feds launch investigation into Tesla’s Cybercab deployment

Federal authorities have launched an investigation into the deployment of Tesla’s Cybercab shortly after the first production units began operating in Austin. Simultaneously, Tesla stock prices declined following the rollout, as the scale of the Cybercab launch failed to meet the broad expectations of several investors. These combined events have created a challenging environment for the company immediately following the introduction of its new autonomous vehicle technology to the public roads in Texas.
