A driverless Tesla Cybercab with no steering wheel was spotted parking itself at a Supercharger location in Austin, Texas, according to a post on X. The observation underscores Tesla's progress toward fully autonomous operation of its robotaxi fleet, which has been expanding in the Austin area.

The sighting aligns with Tesla's recent expansion of its Robotaxi service in Texas and follows months of development on autonomous navigation and charging workflows. The fleet in the state has grown to over 270 vehicles as the company scales testing.

Fully autonomous charging—where a vehicle parks, connects to power, and disconnects without human intervention—represents a key operational milestone for a driverless fleet. What remains unclear from the observation is whether the vehicle executed the entire charging sequence autonomously or completed only the parking portion.
