Elon Musk says Tesla's robotaxi tests are "a month ahead of schedule" in Austin, and the first "self-delivery" of a car is coming soon.

Tesla stock is on the rise after two big pieces of news came overnight: a reported start date for robotaxi testing and CEO Elon Musk's official government departure.

The company is considering June 12th as a possible date to launch its robotaxi service in Austin, Bloomberg reports — though that date could change. Tesla has yet to publicly announce a date, nor has it clarified who will be able to access the vehicles.

Despite its name, Full Self-Driving (FSD) is still considered a level 2 driver assist system and is not fully self-driving. It requires drivers to stay attentive at all times and for them to be ready to take control – hence while Tesla has more recently added ‘Supervised’ to the name.

Catching up to Waymo won't be easy because it has partnered with Uber Technologies, which operates the world's largest ride-hailing network with 170 million monthly users. It could take Tesla years to achieve that level of scale, especially if it builds its own mobility network from scratch.

When smart driving turns unpredictable over thousands of miles, the alerts waiting for you at the end say more than the journey itself. Here’s why this experience is sparking new conversations about what FSD really offers.

Tesla’s Cybercab reveal blowout took place at California’s Warner Bros. Discovery movie studios, a location highly relevant to our impressions of the vehicle’s performance.

Tesla didn't fail to detect the mannequin, the system actually detected the child-size stand-in as a pedestrian but didn't bother to stop or even slow down.
