News says that Tesla’s Robotaxi unmanned taxi service only launched 10 cars in the early stage, and only company employees and invited guests were allowed to take trial rides.

Passionategeekz On June 20, Tesla’s previously promised Robotaxi unmanned taxi service will be officially launched in Austin, USA on June 22. However, according to the foreign media Financial Times, the initial scale of this service may be quite limited.Tesla will invest only about 10 vehicles to provide passenger service, and these vehicles will avoid the most complex intersections in Austin to reduce risks。

To ensure passenger safety, the report pointed out that Tesla will also enable a “remote takeover system” for the corresponding cars. If there is a problem, the remote operator can take over the vehicle to ensure that it reaches its destination smoothly.

Referring to the report of the foreign media “New York Times”, the media quoted analysts’ views and pointed out that Tesla Robotaxi unmanned taxi serviceIn the early stage, it is likely that only open to company employees or invited guests to take the test ride.it may take several months before the full opening to the public.

In fact, as early as the October 2024 press conference, Musk formally introduced Tesla’s unmanned taxi service and an autonomous vehicle called Cybercab. Tesla’s vision is that “because all Tesla models are equipped with Tesla Vision and FSD systems, in theory, any car can be put into operation as a shared taxi when the owner is not in use.”

However, it is still unknown whether Tesla can truly realize this vision. Currently, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is investigating Tesla’s FSD system-related accidents. There are also reports that Tesla prevented the Austin city government from revealing its unmanned taxi records, which has caused concerns about the maturity and transparency of its system.

With the launch of the corresponding taxi service pilot, the outside world is now closely monitoring the actual performance of Tesla’s service, and Passionategeekz will continue to follow up and report.
