- On November 5, Tesla's fully autonomous two-seat Cybercab made its Asia-Pacific debut at the 8th China International Import Expo in Shanghai, becoming the event's centerpiece.
- Chinese officials framed the event as a platform for boosting international business, while Li Qiang, Chinese Premier, pledged at the opening to open the mainland's consumer market following a landmark Sino-US deal last week.
- Attendees saw both robotics and chip announcements as Optimus, Tesla's humanoid robot, attracted attention and Elon Musk revealed AI5, Tesla's next-generation chip made by Samsung and TSMC.
- Tesla's displays attracted more interest than other automakers, and the Cybertruck will reach first adopters in the United Arab Emirates in Q1 2026 with prices at AED 404,900.
- European regulatory agencies have challenged the Cybertruck's design as unsafe with 'blade-like' protrusions, while Asia may require a smaller variant to meet urban standards, delaying rollout this year.
