Tesla robotaxi launch date: Alan Musk, head of American electric car company Tesla, has announced that Tesla is going to start its long -awaited robotaxi service in Austin, Texas on 22 June. While sharing a post on social media platform ‘X’, Alan Musk gave this information. Alan Musk said that, it will be launched first in Austin. However, its launch date is not completely final as it has been described as ‘temporarily 22 June’.
Testing in Austin:
Let us know that recently Tesla Robotaxi has also been spotted on the streets of Austin during testing. Whose video is becoming increasingly viral on social media. This robo taxi can be seen passing through a crowded area without any hassle. However, Tesla’s car is running behind this driverless testing model. Which is probably monitoring the performance of this car on the road.
Alan Musk has placed a big bet in the field of autonomous driving besides the electric vehicle industry. After this new robotaxi hit the road, there is a lot of concern about safety among people. Because in recent times, many cases of Tesla’s autonomous driving cars have been reported.
But in response to a user’s question about the public robotax ride in a post on ‘X’, Alan Musk said, “We are very much worried about security, so the date can change.” Perhaps this is the reason why Tesla is testing in every road condition before launching this robotaxi among the public. Musk also said that from June 28, Tesla’s cars will reach the customer’s house directly from the factory line.
How is Tesla Robotaxi:
Robotaxi is a purpose-belt autonomous vehicle (self-running) vehicle, which does not have a steering wheel or paddle. Which means that before going into production, it will have to get approval from government regulators. Its design is quite futuristic. In the initial phase, its service will be introduced in Austin, where it can also be started in other cities after being successful.
It has always been the belief about driverless cars that it is not safe for driving. Cars equipped with Autonomous Driving of Telsa have also seen many flaws. But despite this, Alan Musk said that autonomous cars would be 10-20 times more secure than any common car (current-time driver cars) and their cost can be just $ 0.20 per mile than $ 1 per mile for $ 1 per mile for urban buses.
