Billionaire Elon Musk has announced that he will introduce a robo taxi under Tesla. Musk has yet to reveal any details about the robo-taxi, also known as a self-driving taxi or driverless taxi.
Meanwhile, Musk X has hinted that the car will be launched on August 8. “Tesla Robotaxi Unveil on 8/8.” He wrote.
Tesla has been experimenting with robo-taxi for years. Musk says the robo-taxi is a potential breakthrough product for Tesla. The idea was to create a fully self-driving car without a steering wheel or pedals that could function as an autonomous taxi service. That said, Tesla's robo-taxi owners are unlikely to be able to make money by putting them to work.

Musk had already hinted at robo-taxi years ago. As early as 2019, he had claimed that robo-taxis would be on the road in 2020. But that didn't happen. With that, some came with ridicule and criticism. It was said at that time that the famous Musk would have put it on the streets and the Tesla team would have done it. Now the post he shared regarding the launch of Robo Taxi has created a lot of curiosity.
