Just happened! Elon Musk Unveiled Tesla Robotaxi - Unique Design, Exterior, Battery and Shock Price

it's beyond imagination the Tesla Robo taxi set to debut in August this year has been confirmed by Elon Musk everything seems crazy with an autonomous e that doesn't have a steering wheel or pedals priced even below $25,000 compared to the later released model 2 so why did Elon decid to unveil the robo taxi earlier than expected let's get into it right now last weekend information from Reuters revealed that Tesla's focusing efforts on developing Robo taxis deciding to show plans at least for now for an affordable car price to $25,000 Reuters wrote Tesla scraps lowcost car plans amid Fierce Chinese EV competition this information is really crazy because model 2 previously announced by Tesla to debut in 2025 represents a revolution and his manufactured in an unprecedented way as musk stated while millions are eagerly anticipating every day even every second for this $25,000 EV they seem to be hit with a cold shower with what Reuters just said but is everything as it seems shortly after Ro's post musk directly refuted it on X with the comment Reuters is lying again at this point anger reached its peak for those who are fans of model 2 Thinking Reuters lost its transparency in the information they give on the other hand they also breed the collective S release because at least the $225,000 model 2 was not abandoned as rumored however at this time something more shocking happened while mus denied the story in the Reuters article a few hours later musk posted a tweet to announce the company will unveil its Robo taxi design later this summer he shared Tesla Robo taxi unveil on 88 musk's tweets make anyone fall into a state of disbelief not believing what they just read what the heck is going on with Tesla Tesla's shares Rose about 4% in the 30 minutes after the robo taxi announcement 165 before and $172 after a while following after the Reuters report this means that Tesla is producing both model 2 and Robo taxi in parallel on a leaked platform called NV 9x at the Texas Factory not only that but it's also had its design leaked many times so what does Tesla's Robo taxi really look like in the real world as for what Robo taxi looks like let's look back at the times it was leaked I alluded to at the Giga Texas opening uh which is a dedicated Robo taxi that's highly optimized for autonomy uh meaning it would not have steering wheel or pedals um and there are a number of other innovation around it that I think are quite exciting in fact if you pay close attention Tesla's long been talking about robot taxis initially they stated that all Tesla vehicles manufactured with suitable Hardware would have full self-driving capability when the software reaches maturity more specifically musk revealed plans for dedicated Robo taxis Vehicles specifically designed for autonomous driving without a steering wheel or pedals and in a shareholder meeting in 2022 to announce the company's first quarter profits musk announced plans to Mass produce self-driving Robo taxis and plan commercially by this year we do a product event for robo taxi next year and and get into more detail um but we we are uh aiming for um volum production in 2024 before musk confirmed the launch of the robo taxi in August everything seemed like an exaggeration from Elon Musk because from 2022 to the end of last year neither Tesla nor Elon provided any further updates on what was called the robo taxi in fact many believed that it had been canceled to focus on the $225,000 model 2 or other priorities suggesting that the robo taxi with model 2 was Impractical for Tesla due to its inability to manufacture and produce multiple generations of affordable vehicles but now we know mus kept his promise and everything is unfolding just as he said it would regarding the fact that many people are still confused with a $25,000 electric car model Robo taxi and model 2 are actually two different car models but but are part of the same MV 9x project Insider sources said that both this Robo taxi and EV gen 3 are produced under the unbox process a production line that's completely changed compared to model Y and model 3 the unbox process is specifically only for producing compact models in an effort to push their prices 30% cheaper if model 2 is confirmed to be sold in 2025 for $25,000 Robo tax is expected to be just under $20,000 because of the minimalism coming from both the inter interior and exterior it's trying to achieve the the lowest fully considered uh cost per mile or cost per kilometer uh you know counting everything I mean on looking at some of our projections it would appear that a robot taxi ride will cost less than a bus ticket a subsidized bus ticket let's talk about its much leak design first what Tesla could use for robo taxis the second image in Walter isaacson's book depicts fron Von Hon's Tesla's chief designer standing next to a first generation robot taxi this model is recreated with simple hardboard pieces but clearly depicts the robo Taxi's design you can see it's markedly different from the model's Tesla previous outline evident in the model's two seats and ample rear luggage space it's important to understand that an efficient Robo taxi should feature two lightweight seats with an ample rear luggage space instead of the four to five seats found in model too unable to accommodate much in the way of Passenger luggage the Tesla Robo taxi could be oriented towards carrying fewer passengers but accommodating more cargo weight with the available space in the rear however Tesla's robot taxi could also offer various options such as two seats or four seats to cater to different pre-order demands in cases where customers prioritize carrying more passengers for example if there's only one passenger needing Transportation with a small amount of luggage using the two- seat Robo taxi surface would be the ideal choice this not only optimizes costs but also provides a comfortable and private experience for that passenger conversely when there are multiple individuals or a large amount of luggage the four- seat service becomes more useful this not only maximizes utility but also helps reduce cost per passenger comparing fron Von Hall's image with another proposed image of the robo taxi the latter is a more accurate depiction of the detailed simulation of the upcoming Tesla Robo taxi it's easy to notice the Striking similarity between the two images aligning about 90% indicating a streamlined robotic taxi with a futuristic design musk once mentioned as unprecedented to describe the similarity both images depict a curve shape on the top of the vehicle we clearly see Tesla's design language with a front fascia and a slight curvature at the front there appears to be a wheel guard at the front as well making the vehicle truly aerodynamic it's not too difficult to recognize that in some aspects it resembles an aptera from an exterior standpoint this design is characterized by its ultra low ground clearance and enclosed rear wheels in our opinion that doesn't seem to be an ideal scenario in areas with lots of snow one notable feature is that you can see the doors open upwards instead of outwards which could be designed to add convenience when getting in and out of the vehicle while also emphasizing novelty compared to traditional models the theory is that it could be automated so when it arrives it simply lifts up for passengers to board at least for the robo taxi version sometimes falcon wings or butterfly doors make a lot of sense for a robo taxi Elon worries about people not closing doors we bet they'll be fully automated to lift in lower on demand there's also no risk of door collisions with another vehicle if they're parked close to each other some are speculating whether it's a three-wheeled vehicle with two wheels at the front and one at the back but this seems unlikely Tesla will still develop a four-wheel Robo taxi and this image is likely a representative of what Tesla will be applying to this model of course this is just an illustration of the manufactur is unique design it should be noted that the compact model 2 and robotaxi versions could share at least 40% similarity in design as they both aim for minimalism but they'll suffer in that the robo taxi May lack a steering wheel and pedals it might have some additional functions around the vehicle allowing you to enter a code at the gate and receive parking tickets however from some perspectives we also believe that there will be another option if customers request a robo taxi with a steering wheel and pedals not much different and people can buy it to use for their own transportation if they want however regardless of its design Elon Musk has also mentioned that Tesla's Robo taxi Fleet will be highly flexible he talks about Tesla owners being able to add their vehicles to the fleet while they're at work or when the vehicles aren't in use meaning even vehicles with steering wheels will be considered Robo taxies in terms of performance currently we have only confirmed information that both the robo taxi and model will utilize the same lfp Gen 2 battery from cattle thanks to the upgraded battery pack with a capacity of 53 KW hours the robo taxi will be able to operate for at least 250 Mi before needing to recharge the advantage of this battery is that it can be charged from 0 to 100% in just 15 minutes which is especially beneficial compared to the previous lfp Gen 2 allowing the robo taxi to still charge quickly and perform well even in harsh cold weather conditions this is the only performance related information available for this Robo taxi at least right now we believe Tesla sunna will be announced range and acceleration figures for this electric vehicle musk's announcement of unveiling the robo taxi before the model 2 actually has its grounds this announcement came at a time when Tesla's full self-driving FSD software advertised to eventually allow vehicles to operate autonomously without a human driver was starting to Garner attention and interest due to significant advancements being made while it hasn't yet made cars fully autonomous it's certainly being improved at a much faster pace however if the robo taxi truly achieves autonomous driving capabilities initially Tesla May encounter obstacles with traffic regulations for example Cruz a company owned by GM indefinitely suspended its Robo taxi service at the end of October 2023 after several accidents prompted California Regulators to tighten regulations for this type of vehicle Tesla's autonomous driving feature is also under close scrutiny following allegations that the company marketed this feature Beyond its practical capabilities on the other hand the launch of the robo taxi also coincides with Tesla's slower growth as the number of vehicles this year may remain unchanged due to no new models being introduced and high interest rates slowing demand finally not only the Tesla Robo taxi but by the end of this year we will also witness a blockbuster unveiling a Tesla vehicle that will surely set a new record and continually dominate in all drag races the Tesla Roadster Gen 2 is exactly what we were referring to here how mind-blowingly crazy is the Tesla Roadster 2 the Roadster was Tesla's first model produced from 2008 to 2012 however at that time it was merely a modified version of the Lotus Elise with limited production Tesla sold just 2400 units over the 5 years of production partly due to its inaccessible price it seemed like Tesla would end the roadster's life cycle due to its inefficiency but shortly after the company announced the development of the second generation model surprising many with this announcement what's more noteworthy is that Elon Musk even showcased a concept design of the Roadster Gen 2 along with the performance claims that the new Roadster could reach 60 mph in 1.9 seconds with a top speed of over 250 mph and a range of 620 Mi the starting price was set at 2 $200,000 and delivery was expected to begin in 2020 but what happened to this car afterward once again musk missed the mark on timing as it wasn't until November 2017 that the second generation Tesla Roadster was officially unveiled however the anticipation continued as the brand continuously refined its project now the latest information from CEO Elon Musk indicates the deliveries may start in 2025 and he has provided some impressive almost unbelievable figures about this new model in recent years there have been numerous reports about the drivetrain of the second generation Roadster and how it has evolved over time the latest reports indicate that the Roadster could feature a 200 KW battery pack and three electric motors one at the front and two at the rear delivering over 1,000 horsepower to the Supercar musk has claimed that the Roadster is supposed to have a torque of 7376 lb feet although this figure may be closer to 758 lb feet in 2019 musk said the sports car would be available with 10 rocket thrusters that would dramatically improve acceleration top speed breaking and cornering maybe they'll allow even a Tesla to fly according to the company boss in 2021 musk said the car would hit 60 mph in 1.1 seconds with the optional rockets on February 28th 2024 musk shared the latest detailed information about the second generation Roadster on Twitter along with a statement tonight we radically increased the design goals for the new Tesla Roadster there will never be another car like this if you could even call it a car Tesla has unveiled many images of the new Roadster and showcased it at the Peterson Automotive Museum in Los Angeles musk also mentioned that the final design has been completed in recent tweets however this may suggest that the final car could have some changes compared to the previous images the previous images depicted a completely different looking sports car compared to the first generation Roadster the new car has a lowprofile aggressive stance with sharp headlights instead of a traditional convertible it features a removable top panel above the occupants inside the driver grips a steering yolk tightly and curves screen between the seats handles equipment and entertainment tasks arranged similarly to other Tesla models in his latest series of tweets about the Roadster musk also mentioned the announcement of the final design by the end of the year and the commencement of deliveries in 2025 since its unveiling in 2017 Tesla has asserted that the new Roadster will have a starting price of $200,000 and the founder series version will be priced at $250,000 there is currently no information about the price of the rocket equip version but it is likely to be higher by 2021 one Tesla had received $50,000 in deposits for the new Roadster however the company removed the car's price from its website and stopped taking reservations for this sports car waiting to see whether the new Roadster can be launched by the end of the year as well as achieving the goal of deliveries by 2025 is something we need to keep an eye on however as of now that's all we know about the electric superar before its official release to the market if Tesla could also unveil the robo taxi along with the new Road at the same event that would be fantastic many people are eagerly anticipating these vehicles and what they are capable of achieving in the end we still aren't certain whether this car has entered the production phase however thanks to musk's announcement we know that it will be unveiled in Just 4 months and sometimes we also need to accept that the Tesla Robo taxi launching on August 8th May significantly differ from the conceptual images as those images have been around for quite some time so Musk along with Tesla's designers and Engineers have had plenty of time to contemplate the design of the vehicle most intriguing in the face of Elon mus announcement about the unveiling of the robo taxi some opinions Express doubt and skepticism the Tesla CEO did not provide specific information about the exact timing nor did he clarify whether it was August 8th of which year this led some to express concerns that musk may have become lazy or careless in providing detailed and timely announcements some asserted that this could be a sign of a new scenario in his communication strategy a way to generate attention and mystery around Tesla's new Robo taxi product however many also Express concerns that musk might be hedging his bet in case the robo taxi couldn't be launched for some reason then he could just argue that it was August 8th 2025 a scenario that would end the debate just kidding that's the entire content that we wanted to bring you in today's episode so what do you think about Robo Taxi's design and performance if it's actually released in August this year and what do you
