Tesla’s scaled-back robotaxi timeline is lagging in regulatory approval
Elon Musk recently walked back his impossible extremely ambitious robotaxi goals, shifting from a target of reaching “half the U.S. population by the end of 2025” to a more “modest” goal of launching in “eight to 10 U.S. metro areas” within the next two months.
Now, in a development that should surprise no one, a new report suggests that even this heavily scaled-back timeline is facing significant obstacles.
JackRabbit OG2 Pro review: The fun-sized electric microbike that proves less really can be more
When it comes to electric bikes, the JackRabbit OG2 Pro barely qualifies as one – and that’s kind of the point. With no pedals, a seat barely higher than your hip, and a wheelbase shorter than some skateboards, this is less a traditional e-bike and more a bite-sized personal transporter that feels like a cross between a folding bike and an electric scooter.
But after riding it around for the past few months, I can confidently say: it’s an absolute blast. It’s more powerful than it looks, it’s easier to transport than you’d expect, and it’s simply more fun than you can imagine. It’s the small-format whip that I wish had existed years ago.

Tesla recalls about 10% of Cybertrucks for using the wrong glue
Tesla is recalling 6,197 Cybertrucks with the “Off Road Lightbar” attachment, citing incorrect use of adhesives which could lead the accessory to fall off during vehicle operation.
It’s about 10% of the 63,619 Cybertrucks in existence, which we know about due to another recall from last week (though that one was fixed by a software update).
