NEW YORK : Elon Musk sent dozens of self-driving Cybercabs without steering wheels or brake pedals onto the streets of Austin, Texas, on Sept 3, betting that Americans will overcome their fears of rides with "no control” and hop inside.

The rollout of the gold-colored Teslas, which give passengers no way to take control in an emergency, comes as the company prepares to launch the service in other US cities. Tesla shares have suffered amid a slump in vehicle sales, but they rose more than five per cent on Sept 3 on hopes that the futuristic-looking taxis will catch on quickly.
