On September 5th, Tesla released a roadmap on social platform X, expecting to launch a fully autonomous driving (FSD) system in China and Europe in the first quarter of 2025, but still awaiting regulatory approval.
The Tesla Robotaxi was originally scheduled to be released on August 8th, but Musk officially announced at the second quarter earnings report that the Robotaxi will be delayed until October 10th and may be put into use by the end of this year or at the latest next year.
On July 16th, Musk stated on social media that he has requested significant design changes to the front of Robotaxi, and the additional time gained from the delayed release date will give the company the opportunity to showcase some other content.
Casey Wood, CEO of Ark Investment Management, believes that Tesla's autonomous taxi platform will occupy the largest share of the artificial intelligence market, and by 2030, the entire opportunity will generate $8 trillion to $10 trillion in revenue.
