Robotaxi Era Begins—Would You Ride Tesla’s Self-Driving Taxi? 🚗🤖

It's finally happening—Tesla is rolling out its pilot program for “Full Self-Driving” (FSD) Model Y robotaxis in Austin, starting June 22. Whether you're a long-time Tesla bull or a tech skeptic, this moment could be the start of a massive disruption in the global ride-hailing industry.

Tesla isn't the first in the robotaxi space. Waymo is already live in San Francisco and Phoenix. And here's the surprise—despite fares being 41% higher than Lyft and 31% higher than Uber, Waymo has captured over 25% of SF's ride-hailing market, even overtaking Lyft. That’s a stunning stat for an autonomous taxi service.

Why are people choosing more expensive rides with no driver? According to customer feedback:

No awkward small talk 🙃

Smoother rides with no road rage 😅

No tipping pressure 💸

High-quality vehicles that feel futuristic 🚀

Now with Tesla entering the race, things could get even more interesting. Unlike Waymo, Tesla uses its own in-house AI stack, custom chipsets, and real-time learning from its global fleet. Elon Musk's dream of turning every Tesla into a self-driving revenue-generating asset might finally be coming true.

But there are big questions too:

Can Tesla match or exceed Waymo's safety record?

Will regulators in other cities follow suit?

Will consumers trust a car with no steering wheel or human backup?

For investors, this is not just a cool tech milestone. If Tesla proves it can scale its robotaxi service, the addressable market expands from EVs to transportation-as-a-service (TaaS)—a trillion-dollar opportunity. And this could be bullish for not just $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ , but also for AI chipmakers like $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ , mapping firms, and mobility platforms.

1 Trln Pay Package Approved! Tesla Sell the News: Hold for Long Term?

On November 6, more than 75% of shareholders voted in favor of Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s new compensation package. Under the plan, if Musk meets a series of milestones over the next ten years, he will gradually receive about 423.7 million restricted stock units (RSUs) — up to USD 1 trillion. Can Musk realistically hit these ambitious milestones in the next decade? Will this massive pay package truly align Tesla’s growth with shareholder interests After the approval, is Tesla a “sell the news” trade — or a long-term conviction hold?
