Overview
- Robotaxi Tracker data published Thursday put Tesla at 25 unsupervised vehicles in Texas, a crowdsourced count that can understate the true fleet.
- Austin hosts most of the cars with 19, while Dallas and Houston have three each.
- Dallas and Houston began offering unsupervised rides on April 18 with one car in each city and have since grown to three per city.
- The service runs in small, geofenced zones and the cars have been active less than 30% of the time, limiting ride availability for would-be riders.
- Elon Musk said Robotaxi revenue will not be material this year, and rival Waymo reports about 3,000 vehicles providing roughly 500,000 rides per week, highlighting the large gap in scale.
