Elon Musk said Tesla robotaxis with no human drivers would be available in some markets next year
SAN FRANCISCO - Chief Executive Elon Musk said Tesla Inc robotaxis with no human drivers would be available in some U.S. markets next year, continuing a habit of bold pronouncements that have excited many investors while often missing deadlines.
The webcast presentation came two days before Tesla is expected to announce a quarterly loss on fewer deliveries of its Model 3 sedan, which represents Tesla’s attempt to become a volume car maker. “A year from now we’ll have over a million cars with full self-driving, software, everything,” Musk predicted.
More pressing for analysts, he said, were concerns about demand for the Model 3 and whether Tesla may seek new financing.Musk took a swipe at competitors relying on Lidar, light-based sensors that are a key element in most other self-driving systems.
