Tesla’s Self-Driving ‘Robotaxi’ to Enter the Spotlight
Published On Oct 10, 2024, 10:35 AM
Tesla is set to unveil a prototype of its self-driving taxi, referred to as the 'Robotaxi,' in an exclusive event in Los Angeles. Elon Musk claims that this vehicle could add trillions to Tesla's market value, as it would operate autonomously and provide passengers with on-demand rides. The Robotaxi could potentially allow owners to earn money similar to renting a space on Airbnb. However, there are significant doubts from analysts regarding the feasibility of the technology, as there are still many technical, safety, and regulatory challenges to overcome before such a vehicle becomes viable.
