Tesla plans to debut its robotaxi service in Austin next month with a small fleet of Model Ys.
The robotaxi debut in Austin will be invite-only and have a significant number of teleoperators to ensure safety levels.
Teleoperators for Tesla's robotaxis may have control over the vehicles in certain situations, unlike some other companies in the autonomous driving space.
The highly anticipated robotaxi launch by Tesla has faced numerous delays in the past, with CEO Elon Musk missing his own deadlines for full autonomy and robotaxis implementation.
