Tesla launches Robotaxi service in San Antonio
Tesla has launched its driverless Robotaxi service in San Antonio, its fifth Texas city.
Tesla has introduced its driverless Robotaxi service in San Antonio, marking its fifth Texas city to offer this innovation. The Robotaxi service now operates in eight U.S. cities, including Austin, Dallas, Houston, Miami, Fort Worth, Orlando, San Antonio, and Tampa. Jacksonville, Las Vegas, and Phoenix are expected to join soon.
Notably, San Antonio's Robotaxi service covers a vast 273-square-mile area, significantly larger than Waymo's 59-square-mile coverage in the city. This information can be compared at Robotaxitracker. Tesla CEO Elon Musk ensured the Robotaxi coverage in San Antonio does not resemble the unusual shapes previously seen in Austin (penis-shaped) and Houston (rocket-shaped).
Currently, the Robotaxi fleet in San Antonio consists of Tesla Model Y vehicles. Cybercab services, such as Elon Musk's proposed Cybertruck, are still limited to Austin, Texas. Both Tesla and Waymo have been rapidly expanding their autonomous taxi services in recent months.
