Tesla (TSLA) Chief Executive Elon Musk said Tuesday that Austin’s fleet of robotaxis will double in December, building on the launch of the company’s self-driving service in the city in June.
“The Tesla Robotaxi fleet in Austin should roughly double next month,” Musk said in a post on X, which he also owns.
Tesla’s robotaxi service currently operates in two cities, Austin and the San Francisco Bay Area, with safety monitors still required in the vehicles. The company last week also received a permit to operate a ride-hailing service in Arizona.
