Tech billionaire Elon Musk said Tesla is “tentatively” set to begin providing robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, on June 22. Musk said the date could change because Tesla is “being super paranoid about safety”.
Investors, Wall Street analysts and Tesla enthusiasts have been anticipating the rollout of the driverless cabs since Musk said earlier this year that the service would launch in Austin sometime in June.
Last month, Musk told CNBC that the taxis will be remotely monitored at first and “geofenced” to certain areas of the city deemed the safest to navigate. He said he expected to initially run 10 or so taxis, increase that number rapidly and start offering the service in Los Angeles, San Antonio, San Francisco and other US cities.
