Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, has invited skeptics of the company’s robotaxis to test drive their latest self-driving car. A Wall Street analyst did just that and reported issues with Tesla’s full self-driving feature. The analyst’s note raises questions about the progress of autonomous driving and robotaxis that Musk is counting on for Tesla’s future. While the FSD feature has improvements, it still demonstrated problems such as illegal maneuvers and the need for interventions. Tesla’s success relies on self-driving technology and Musk believes Tesla shares could be worth trillions by the end of the decade. However, plans for the robotaxi service have been delayed. Safety regulators have also raised concerns about Tesla’s driver assist features.
