Tesla's comments on self-driving cars and cheaper model fail to ignite enthusiasm
Tesla held an online event intended to provide more details about its vision for autonomous driving using electric vehicles. The company was expected to announce specific timelines for launching its "Robotaxi" service.
However, Tesla provided no dates or plans for the start of this service. It also gave no additional information about its anticipated lower-cost model. This disappointed analysts and investors expecting more substantial announcements and clearer details during the event.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk spoke about the company's transportation future vision but gave no firm dates for when full self-driving capability will be available to customers.
By failing to offer new information or concrete deadlines, the event appeared less exciting than anticipated, falling short of market expectations seeking greater clarity from Tesla on the progress of autonomous driving and affordable electric vehicles.
