On Saturday, Elon Musk revealed that Tesla is set to unveil its robotaxi on August 8th, as he announced on his social media platform X. The news was met with enthusiasm from his millions of followers.
Commenting on the announcement, one user expressed anticipation to witness a Tesla without a steering wheel. Another user speculated that both the compact car and the Robotaxi might be revealed simultaneously, hoping for no delays, especially regarding the compact car.
Tesla had previously aimed to have robotaxis operational by 2020, but this goal remained unfulfilled. Concurrently, reports surfaced suggesting Tesla’s abandonment of plans for a more affordable electric vehicle priced around $25,000.
Musk had previously outlined plans for the more affordable EV to be based on Tesla’s upcoming vehicle platform, with production slated to commence at Gigafactory Texas. Tesla reiterated its focus on expediting the introduction of the next-generation platform to the market.
