Tesla to unveil new robotaxi and updates on Optimus at We, Robot event
Summary: Tesla will unveil its new robotaxi at the "We, Robot" event on October 10th. This vehicle aims to enhance Tesla's position in AI and robotics, competing with companies like Waymo and Cruise. The event will also feature updates on Tesla's humanoid robot, Optimus.
Elon Musk has delayed the robotaxi reveal to refine the prototype. The vehicle is expected to be a two-seater with butterfly doors, relying on Tesla's camera-based vision system instead of lidar. Musk has previously promised a network of autonomous vehicles for ride-sharing.
There are hints of additional announcements, including a potential cheaper Tesla model. Musk has indicated that a $25,000 vehicle could be in the works, which would target the demand for affordable electric cars.
