Hey there, future riders! Guess what? Tesla just started its super cool robotaxi service in Austin, Texas! 🎉
Imagine hopping into a car that drives itself—no driver needed! That’s right, Tesla’s Model Y cars are now picking up passengers all by themselves. How awesome is that? 🚗🤖
Elon Musk, the big boss of Tesla, was super excited. He posted on social media, “Super congratulations to the Tesla AI software & chip design teams on a successful robotaxi launch!!”
But wait, what’s a robotaxi? It’s a taxi that uses advanced computers and sensors to drive without a human driver. It’s like something straight out of a sci-fi movie! 😲
Right now, Tesla is starting slow. They’re using a few cars in Austin to make sure everything is safe and smooth. Soon, they hope to bring robotaxis to other cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles!
The robotaxi service is available from 6 a.m. to midnight for special invited users. So, not everyone can ride just yet. But who knows? Maybe one day you’ll be able to take a ride in a self-driving car too!
While this is super exciting, safety is super important. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is keeping an eye on things to make sure everyone stays safe.
Tesla thinks that robotaxis are the future and could be a big part of how we all get around one day. What do you think? Would you ride in a robotaxi? Let us know! 😊
