Tesla is showing the production version of its two-seat Cybercab at the 9th China International Import Expo in Shanghai, which runs November 5 to 10, The Paper reported. It is in Hall 3H at the National Exhibition and Convention Center. The Lin-gang Special Area, which has a 2,700-square-meter showcase at the expo, said on its official site that Tesla would have its own zone showing its Shanghai Gigafactory's production methods, alongside the Model Y Performance and its latest-generation gold Optimus robot.

The Paper says this is the same model already in service in the US, now in gloss paint instead of matte, with a visible logo. It has no steering wheel, pedals or mirrors, plus butterfly doors and a 22-inch screen.

The Cybercab was also shown at last year's expo. The Paper reports this year's display is static and doesn't involve selling the car in China or running commercial driverless ride-hailing there.
