Tesla Robotaxi users are reporting strange routing choices as the service expands
Some Tesla Robotaxi users reported that the service is taking unusually long routes and that some parts of the Houston map are unavailable for rides.
Some Tesla Robotaxi users are experiencing unusual routing choices and longer-than-expected travel times as the service expands in Houston. The company recently increased its service area in the city by over 200 square miles, making it larger than Waymo's coverage area there. However, some riders report taking longer routes than expected and facing significant wait times for the robotaxis.
One user captured video of a 25-minute drive covering just two blocks in downtown Houston, which typically takes around 45 minutes on normal routes. Other users have noted that not all parts of the new geofence are accessible. A Tesla spokesperson declined to comment on the issues.
