The American billionaire and owner of Tesla and SpaceX, Ilon Musk, announced plans to launch unmanned taxi (Robotaxi) service on June 22. He reported this on the social network X.
According to the mask, the first test trips on electric cars without a driver can start in Austin, Texas.
“We approach security issues with extreme caution, so the start date can be adjusted,” he said.
American media report that the launch of a new service is of great interest among investors, analysts with Wall Street and motorists.
Last month, in an interview with CNBC, Musk specified that at the initial stage, robotaxi will be controlled remotely and will be able to move only in strictly limited areas, which are recognized as the most safe.
