No Wall Connector: Cybercab Is Built for Fleet DC, Not Driveways

Out of Spec's Kyle Conner says the purpose-built two-seater has no onboard AC charger - a cost and durability cut that points the Austin fleet at DC stalls and, soon, wireless pads.

AUSTIN, Texas - The Cybercab you hail in Austin this week will not charge the way a Model Y charges in a driveway. After hands-on time with the purpose-built two-seater here, Kyle Conner of Out of Spec Reviews put the design choice in plain English: the car does not support AC charging. There is no onboard charger to turn wall power into battery power. For a fleet-only coupe, he called that omission "kind of cool for cost / durability optimization."
