Tesla CEO Elon Musk has announced that the company plans to launch its highly anticipated Robotaxi in August of this year. This latest move is part of Tesla’s ongoing efforts to bring self-driving cars to the market.
The Robotaxi, which will be a Tesla model without a steering wheel and pedals, is set to be released globally on August 8. Musk has been vocal about Tesla’s work on self-driving technology, especially as the company faces challenges such as slowing auto sales growth and price cuts.
In preparation for the launch of the Robotaxi, Tesla is ramping up efforts to familiarize drivers with its self-driving software. Musk has reportedly asked employees to take customers on test drives to showcase the capabilities of the software, known as Full Self-Driving Capability. This advanced version of Tesla’s Autopilot feature helps users with tasks such as changing lanes and steering.
With the August launch date quickly approaching, Tesla is working hard to ensure a smooth rollout of the Robotaxi and to demonstrate the potential of self-driving technology to its customers. Stay tuned for more updates as Tesla continues to push the boundaries of innovation in the automotive industry.
