Tesla plans to allow owners to add their cars to its robotaxi network next year, enabling customers to earn income by renting them out as self-driving vehicles. This expansion follows the robotaxi network's initial launch in Austin, which employed only Tesla-owned vehicles for safety reasons. The company's latest revenue declined by 12% due to reduced vehicle deliveries and a drop in environmental credit earnings. Concerns about regulations and liability issues related to customer-owned vehicles in the robotaxi network remain uncertain.
"I'd say confidently next year," Musk stated about adding Tesla owners' cars to the robotaxi network, allowing customers to earn money by renting them out.
The robotaxi network expansion aims to catch up with industry leader Waymo, which already operates a fleet in various U.S. cities.
Tesla's recent revenue fell 12% year-over-year to $22.5 billion, attributed to vehicle delivery slumps and declining environmental credit revenue.
Regulatory and liability concerns remain unclear regarding the incorporation of customer-owned Tesla vehicles into the robotaxi network.
