CEO Promises Robotaxi to Come Soon
Musk previously indicated that Tesla’s Full Self-Driving system will allow Tesla owners to turn their cars off. And earn money when they are not using them. This sounds fantastic, but the Full Self-Driving upgrade has been available since 2016. And is currently in limited beta testing, with customers reporting a variety of difficulties. Musk’s Robotaxi ambitions now include a customized car that will be available in two years. And will not have any controls. We find it ambitious, given that we can’t get our long-term Tesla Model Y to work with FSD. It has no phantom-braking on regular, uncrowded highways in ideal conditions.

It’s Coming Very Soon
Musk stated during the results call that the new Robotaxi would be unveiled in 2023 and that it would have the “lowest — completely calculated — cost-per-mile, cost-per-kilometer, bookkeeping everything.” He previously stated that Tesla’s Robotaxi service will be less expensive than using the bus, which seems improbable unless significantly subsidized by the government or Tesla. Do you think Tesla’s new vehicle will become a reality in the next 2 years, given Musk’s habit for releasing excessively optimistic timeframes for new products and features?
