"Tesla launched its Robotaxi app to the general public yesterday, and the number of downloads is a testament to the platform's high demand for testing. After two and a half months of testing with a group of hand-picked Tesla influencers and some media, the company has officially launched Robotaxi rides in both Austin, Texas, and the California Bay Area to the public."
"The testing phase with the group Tesla selected has gone well. In Austin, the City has only listed one "Safety Concern" with Robotaxi during the testing phase. For the most part, things have gone extremely well, and riders have had good things to say. Tesla is still operating with some safeguards in place, such as Safety Monitors and Safety Drivers, but these are precautionary and temporary; CEO Elon Musk has said they should be removed by the end of the year."
Tesla launched Robotaxi rides publicly in Austin, Texas and the California Bay Area after two and a half months of limited testing with hand-picked influencers and media. The Robotaxi app is available to iOS users with an Android release hinted as coming soon. Testing recorded only one listed "Safety Concern" in Austin, and riders reported largely positive experiences. Tesla operates with Safety Monitors and Safety Drivers as temporary safeguards, and Elon Musk said those safeguards should be removed by year-end. App downloads outpaced comparable services, exceeding Uber across rolling 30-day periods and surpassing Waymo's best day by six times.
