After Tesla’s profits, click on Cybercab

Earlier this year, Musk told investors that Tesla would launch independent driving technology in Austin and California this year, with the launch of a roboti service in Texas in June. (The service is scheduled to be launched using the Y, instead of Cybercabs.) Tesla has since got a permit to Run the California taxi serviceAlthough he will need to apply for several permits and operate this service without drivers behind the wheel and win it. I entered talks with the city of Palo Alto, where its headquarters are located, to ultimately provide a ride service, according to emails obtained through the public records that WIRED requested. (Because of the least striking regulations of Texas, the car maker does not need additional permits or government registration to operate a driver without a driver in Austin.)

The success of Cybercab, which is scheduled to enter into production in 2026, is especially important because Tesla does not seem to have many other car projects on the horizon. A A long -awaited and more affordable electric electric vehicle Its classification was reduced last year to a modified version but it was cheaper than the famous Tesla Y, instead of a full new vehicle. Last week, Reuters I mentioned that whenever it is late at reasonable prices At least several months.

Robotaxi Tesla is placed in direct competition with Google Sister And emoWhich was running the self -paying taxi service at the Phoenix, Arizona, and in San Francisco for about two years. (Waymo also works in Los Angeles and Austin, and is scheduled to be launched in Atlanta and Miami in the coming months)

Waymo and Zoox have taken more methods of self -driving than Tesla, with years of testing with drivers who supervise the wheel to monitor technology. The “Full Driving” Tesla feature is available on all its American cars for an additional fee, but the company warns that drivers still have to pay attention to the road while using their technology. However, the company confirmed that it will jump than this self -ruling “Level 2” less progressive to the non -supervision leadership.

Technology experts have suspected ambitious time tables in Tesla. “I think the world is wondering, can you do this? Rimmer says. “And my answer is, yes, they can do some experimental, perhaps with a safety driver.”

Tesla Robotaxi will also need a lot of work after the complex technology required to make cars go. “Until you already withdraw the safety driver abroad, you do not realize all the other things they were doing for you: answering the questions of passengers, and helping them to move in the entire system, (moving) in capturing and descending,” says Jeff Schneider, a robot researcher at the University of Carnegie Mellon, who worked on the Carnegie project for your self -driving project.

On a platform for investors, Tesla wrote that it is expected to be affected by the uncertainty related to the “advanced commercial policy”, which the company says will most likely affect the global supply chain in Tesla and what it spends on building its products. “This dynamic, along with changing political feelings, can have a meaningful effect on the demand for our products in the short term,” the deck said.

I told the investors that Tesla is still the “least affected” car company in terms of DefinitionsBecause many of the company’s vehicle shares are manufactured and collected in the United States. “This puts us in a better position than many of our competitors,” he said. Musk said he will continue to talk to the president about the policy of customs tariffs. He said: “I will continue to defend low definitions instead of the higher definitions, but that’s all I can do.”
