π UPDATE β June 28, 2026
New details confirm the Tesla Cybercab's seats are fully powered and controlled through the vehicle's touchscreen UI. The bench seats are designed to move forward and backward together as a unit, while the seatbacks offer independent recline functionality for each passenger. This gives riders a degree of personalized comfort control without requiring physical adjustment mechanisms on the seats themselves.

A short clip shared by Whole Mars Catalog on Saturday morning gives Tesla watchers their clearest look yet at how passengers will adjust seating inside the Cybercab. The footage is brief, but it adds a concrete detail to what has largely been a design-concept-level understanding of the robotaxi's interior.
The Cybercab is a two-passenger autonomous vehicle with no steering wheel or pedals, which frees up the cabin in ways a conventional car simply cannot. Earlier design details pointed to a modular seating layout with a central armrest that folds down, and the interior is anchored by a 21-inch central display that handles navigation, climate, entertainment, and communication β the only interface passengers interact with. Seat adjustability fits squarely into that passenger-first philosophy: when there's no driver, everyone in the cabin is a rider, and comfort controls need to be intuitive and accessible from either seat.
Tesla hasn't made a formal announcement around this specific feature, so the clip is best read as a production-intent detail surfacing ahead of the Cybercab's commercial launch rather than a standalone reveal. Still, for anyone tracking how the robotaxi experience will actually feel day-to-day, seeing the seat mechanics in motion is more informative than any spec sheet.
