- Tesla unveiled her “public” robotoxic service this weekend
- Service is currently a matter of only one invitation
- Reports show that it is still behind Vimo and other rivals
In a surprising turning point in the events, Tesla remains on its recent timelines and in fact this weekend has launched a “public” independent ride -powered service in Austin, Texas in Austin, Texas.
The controversial CEO has moved forward, despite the Texas lawmakers demanding the Musk a completely autonomous taxis to finalize and postpone the new rules.
As a result, information is being made on various social media networks that showcase the first few VIP invitations that enjoy their first robotics experience.

However, this is a far -reaching voice from the future cyber cab scenes that Tesla presented in October last year in his Hollywood ‘We, Robot’ event, where people with cyber cabuses around a film set were prepared to improve you for the party, they are just about telephone.
This is a similar story in which Tesla’s recent robotoxic effort is, as the “fleet” of 10-20 model Wii vehicles (playing some robotoxic branding) is strictly limited to a small and relatively UNC non-complex area of Austin, Texas.
They also work only between 6 and 12 am and have a remote operator in the passenger seat to manually confirm the identity of the riders and overcome a problem.
Verge reports that some of Tesla’s drivers also have ‘chase’ vehicles after lace vehicles, which are probably full of engineers ready to jump, if there is a problem that cannot handle both the car and remote operators.
According to Verge, so far, only one selected invitation has come out mainly for “Pro Tesla” influencers, which have an initial invitation list of test pilots that is like a Musk psychopathic hyperter-the famous Tesla stock hypertier merit is included in these names.
Just like the ‘We, Robot’ event, this initial launch phase feels like a mass PR stunt, in which the company invites “ordinary people” (Tesla content creators) to ride during the initial testing phase, rather than paying for any legitimate, payment.

It is impossible to talk about Tesla’s robotics service that without mentioning its nearest rival Vimo, especially when Musk allegedly said after this successful launch of the initial launch, it could be up to a thousand robotics on the road in a few months.
As a reminder, Vemo currently has a completely operational fleet of 1,500 vehicles on the road in four major cities in the United States, in areas where it continues to spread inside these cities. Any driver can ask for a taxi taxi with a simple app interface and he will not be able to see the human inside.
By the end of 2026, it is expected that 2,000 more vehicles will be added according to a blog post by an alphabet-owned company released in May this year, as it has developed a jaguar I-Pace cars for independent driving.
Vemo also announced that it would be the first largest client of Hyundai’s widely manufactured Ion Q 5 robotics, which would help in a faster scale.
To think that the Musk will be able to reach the stage, after which the primarily initial testing phase is a pure imaginary concept, especially when it only insists on using the camera fully self -driving system, which has a lack of radars, leather and thousands of other sensors, which is reliable and reliable.

Already, several videos have already appeared on the Reddate, which appears that Tesla Robotics has been shown misinterpreting, walking around busy intersections and making jokes on the break of parked police cars who are not even in the road.
Blessed, it is impossible to confirm the authenticity of the Reddate video, but there is a growing list of many public issues where Tesla’s full self -driving system has been active during an accident.
The first few reviews of the experiment seem to be widely positive, most riders describe this drive as “smooth” or “human”, but these are still very early days.

Things will be much more complicated if and when Tesla has thousands of vehicles legally on the road, it removes the operator sitting on the seat of passengers, and it prepares its app so that ordinary people can use it real. I predict that at least two years away.
Along with Vemo, there are companies in China that are actively running with a fully autonomous ride -driven services. Bedo, Verad and Pony.com are already at a distance of hundreds and thousands of miles.
Only last year, Bedo allegedly gave rise to anxiety after the launch of taxi drivers, automotive brands and a driverless service in Wuhan in the working public, which offered about Six six -mile ride for approximately 50 cents (reported four or more miles).
According to CNN, he traveled around two rupees with a human driver on the wheel and naturally proved to be very popular, which caused panic that many jobs could soon be at risk.
Once there is a legal framework for a widespread rollout of independent vehicles, it will not be too much to think that the Chinese can roam the market and dominate it … just as they did with EV.
