Tesla to demonstrate robotaxi on August 8, Elon Musk

 Elon Musk said on Saturday that his electric car company Tesla will unveil its robotaxi on August 8. In a post on his social media platform X, the billionaire said that the Tesla Robotaxi will be unveiled on 8/8.




This news brought happiness to millions of his followers. One X user commented, “Wow, can't wait to see a Tesla without a steering wheel.




Another user wrote that he hopes the compact car and robotaxi will be unveiled at the same time. I hope to have design and manufacturing lines for both. Please do not delay and do not delay much especially in a compact car.





Robotaxis operation was indicated in 2019

In 2019 the company indicated the robotaxis would be operational by 2020. However, the plan did not succeed. But the latest announcement comes after reports claimed Tesla has canceled its plans to develop a more affordable EV for around $25,000.


Musk had previously said that the more affordable EV electric car would be built on the company's next-generation vehicle platform.


Tesla had said, we are focused on bringing the next generation platform to market with plans to begin production at Gigafactory Texas as soon as possible.





The company has said that its next-generation vehicle platform will include both an affordable car and a dedicated robotaxi. However, the company has released the teaser of both. But it has not yet presented the prototype of either of them. Musk's tweet on Friday suggests that robotaxi is being prioritized over cheaper cars. Although both will be designed on the same platform.

Reuters reported earlier on Friday that the carmaker had scrapped its plans for a less expensive vehicle. And it's devoting more resources to trying to bring robotaxi to market. Musk responded without explanation by saying "Reuters is lying."

Tesla also produced 46,561 more vehicles than it delivered in the first quarter. Which forced him to cut prices. American consumers are turning away from more expensive EVs in favor of hybrid models. Due to which many manufacturers are having to think again to electrify their vehicles.

Musk's announcement of exciting products has always been a major part of Tesla's ability to generate excitement among customers and investors, without spending on traditional advertising. But this does not always work. The company introduced the Cybertruck in November 2019 with much fanfare. But production was delayed for years and production of that vehicle has been slow.
