Tesla AI software vice president Ashok Elluswamy, on 9/4 on X, said: Robotaxi needs to run all day, every day (24/7)—roughly “around next month,” and the key is the next piece of technology planned to be merged into the FSD v15 rollout.
His original quote was very brief; it didn’t provide a list of cities and didn’t promise that it would be enabled on the first day of next month. On 9/11, he also mentioned that the v15 direction includes earlier detection of hazards, faster response, and collision avoidance—again, these are statements from executives, not a regulator-certified report.
For ride-hailing users: if the timeline holds, the service gap would shift from “only during business hours” to “a car available at any time.” But whether people can feel comfortable riding still depends on responsibility for incidents, remote intervention, and data transparency—not on the phrase “24/7” by itself. Note: the benchmark for “around next month” is his 9/4 reply, not something he said just today.
Tinatanggap ni Tesla Cybercab sa Beijing at Shanghai ang mga static na eksibisyon simula ngayon—ayon sa muling pagsasalaysay ng media sa opisyal na anunsyo ni Tesla—ito ang unang pagkakataon na ang modelong Robotaxi na walang manibela ay malapitang mabibigyan ng pagkakataong pagmasdan ng publiko sa China.
Beijing Huamao Experience Store: petsa ng eksibisyon 9/17–27; Shanghai Xingye Taikoo Hui LG1 North Hall: 9/17–21. Ang sasakyan ay nananatiling two-seater pa rin, disenyo na walang manibela at pedal, ngunit ang layunin ng aktibidad ay pang-display lamang—hindi ito pagbebenta, at hindi rin ito ang pagsisimula ng Robotaxi na komersyal na operasyon sa China.
Para sa karaniwang tao, sa panandaliang panahon, mas kapareho ito ng “unang makikita at mahahawakan ang konsepto,” at ang regulasyon at komersyalisasyon ay nasa ibang timeline. Sa panig ng Austin, mayroon nang limitadong sakay (tingnan ang naunang整理); sa China naman, ngayon ay nasa yugto pa rin ng eksibisyon—huwag paghaluin ang dalawang bagay na parang “nakakatawag na agad ng walang-drayber na sasakyan sa Beijing at Shanghai.”
