Elon Musk pushes zero rare earth motors for Tesla Cybercab
Elon Musk announced on September 4 that the Tesla Cybercab drive motor uses no rare earth elements. This strategic shift aims to eliminate dependence on specific supply chain materials while maintaining performance. The update comes as gold-colored, steering-wheel-less Cybercabs remain unused in Austin, Texas, where they narrowly avoided destruction during a previous Amazon cargo plane crash. Simultaneously, a new four-hour documentary by Alex Gibney examines Musk's influence, featuring Ashley St Clair, who claims she turned down a $40 million payment to stay silent about Musk.
Why it matters
Rare earth elements are critical for traditional electric vehicle motors but often involve volatile supply chains. Tesla is attempting to decouple its production from these materials. This effort coincides with the deployment of autonomous vehicles that lack manual controls.
What is confirmed
- The Cybercab drive motor does not use any rare earth elements.
- Alex Gibney produced a two-part, four-hour documentary about Elon Musk.
Still unconfirmed
- Ashley St Clair rejected a financial package worth approximately $40 million to remain silent about Elon Musk.

Tesla Cybercabs Pile Up Unused as Documentary Examines Musk
Tesla's gold-colored autonomous Cybercabs with no steering wheels or pedals are piling up unused in a limited coverage area in Austin, Texas. An Amazon cargo plane involved in a tragic crash in Miami very nearly wiped out a parking lot full of the unused vehicles in an event Elon Musk has called weird. Meanwhile, Ashley St Clair stated that she rejected a financial package worth approximately $40 million to remain silent about Musk prior to her appearance in Alex Gibney's new documentary examining Musk's power and influence.
Why it matters
The recent spotlight on Elon Musk coincides with the Venice Film Festival premiere of a four-hour documentary directed by Alex Gibney that questions how Musk accumulated his vast power. Figures within Musk's inner circle have simultaneously poured millions into psychedelic therapeutics. Musk is also directly funding the Texas Senate campaign of Ken Paxton.
What is confirmed
- Tesla announced that Cybercabs were available to provide rides as part of the company app-based ride-hailing service in a limited coverage area in Austin, Texas.
- Ashley St Clair stated she rejected a financial package worth approximately $40 million that would have restricted what she could say about Elon Musk.
Still unconfirmed
- An Amazon Prime Air cargo plane at Miami International Airport experienced a malfunction and crashed into a cargo van and SUV outside the airport, resulting in five fatalities and nearly hitting a parking lot full of Tesla Cybercabs.
What to watch next

- Expansion or regulatory changes regarding Tesla Cybercab availability outside of Austin, Texas.

No new information on Elon Musk or Tesla parts
Current intelligence reports provide no new data regarding Elon Musk's comments on Tesla components. Previous reporting focused on Tesla owners bypassing driver monitoring systems to sleep or game while using Full Self-Driving features. This behavior occurred amidst regulatory scrutiny and a valuation twenty-five times higher than Ford's. Recent updates from other sectors cover the death of King Harald V of Norway, floods in Nepal, and corporate earnings for Buckle and Applied Materials, but these do not intersect with Tesla operations or Musk's statements.
Why it matters
Tesla's market valuation remains significantly higher than traditional automakers despite ongoing safety challenges. The company's autonomous driving software is under intense scrutiny as users find ways to defeat safety protocols. These factors create a volatile environment for the company's regulatory standing.
