Elon Musk sets new date for Tesla robotaxi reveal, calls everything beyond autonomy 'noise'
Elon Musk says he will show off Tesla's purpose-built "robotaxi" prototype during an event October 10, after scrapping a previous plan to reveal it August
Elon Musk says he will show off Tesla’s purpose-built “robotaxi” prototype during an event October 10, after scrapping a previous plan to reveal it August 8. Musk said Tesla will also show off “a couple of other things,” but didn’t explain what that meant.
The comments, made on Tesla’s second-quarter earnings call Tuesday, largely confirms Bloomberg’s original report about the delay, including that it was driven by Musk’s desire to redesign certain elements of the prototype. Musk confirmed earlier this month that he requested an “important design change to the front.”
