Tesla's Robotaxi Just Launched in Miami -- Its First City Outside Texas and California. Can It Rescue the Stock?
Yahoo Finance ·
Tesla ( TSLA +6.69% ) Robotaxis began picking up passengers in Miami on Friday -- the company's first market outside Texas and California. The service begins modestly, in a geofenced slice of western Miami-Dade County reportedly running from West Miami toward Doral, with downtown and Miami Beach left out for now. The day before, Tesla reported 480,126 second-quarter deliveries, up about 25% year over year -- and the stock fell 7.5% anyway. But the stock is regaining some ground on Monday as investors hope the company's Robotaxi business may begin to gain steam. Is the Robotaxi business scaling fast enough to be that something? The Robotaxi service is barely a year old. Tesla launched it in Austin last summer with safety monitors aboard, began removing them, and has been layering on markets since. Miami is a sensible next test bed, too: flat roads, year-round driving weather, and heavy visitor traffic that leans on ride-hailing.
