Tesla's much-hyped \"Robotaxi Day\" didn't go as smoothly as hoped 🚗💨. After the event, Tesla's shares took a nosedive by 8.78%, wiping out nearly $70 billion from the company's market value 😱.
At the conference, many were left scratching their heads 🤔. Tesla, led by the ever-ambitious Elon Musk, failed to provide crucial details on how they plan to tackle regulatory hurdles, set pricing standards, roll out globally, or handle potential safety incidents.
\"Elon Musk hasn't shown any verifiable evidence of advancements in Tesla's autonomous driving tech,\" commented an analyst from Jefferies, a major American investment bank 🏦. \"It's tough for us to gauge the feasibility of his goals, especially since relying solely on visual methods for higher-level autonomous driving has no precedent.\"
Adding to the skepticism, Musk didn't address how a two-seater robotaxi would cater to families heading out for dinner 🍽️ or travelers en route to the airport ✈️. Is this sleek ride meant only for solo commuters or a niche crowd?
For now, Tesla's vision of a two-seater robotaxi seems more like a sci-fi dream than an imminent reality 🚀. As the automotive world watches closely, only time will tell if Musk can turn this concept into a road-worthy success.
