    This isn't a robotaxi model3, but the camera positions on a robotaxi adapted to the model 3 as a mule.
    The position of those window cameras imply a b-pillar shifted back. So likely a 2 door, with wider doors.

    I think the idea of a robotaxi simply being a replacement for a regular taxi and that market size is way under selling the transformational effect. We're more likely talking about why own a car at all for a large segment of people suddenly. Why have a garage? You suddenly avoided car loans, maintenance, insurance, licensing. It's revolutionary.

      Because in the Netherlands, there isn't a lot of NEED for taxis as I understand it. Unlike North American suburbia and zoning hell, you can WALK to places you need to go to daily. Or BIKE.
      So there is little demand, which leads to them being MORE expensive, which leads to LESS demand, and the price "spiral" continues until demand and cost reach equilibrium.

Maybe more pivotable seats and removing a center console for more room and varied seating positions? But le'ts just pretend for economies of scale the cabin/seating stays the same. Then what really is the difference?

    Tesla, rather than hiring drivers:
    1. Provide Tesla vehicles to high-rated Uber and Lyft drivers,
    with option to buy.
    2. Provide an onboard App that explains FSD to customers being transported.
    making good on promises to investors on advertising.
    3. Reward those drivers giving transport as a service, "Edge-case Tesla Points" that can
    be redeemed at Tesla service centers and restaurants.
    4. Very high mileage drivers should be able to "earn" a Tesla outright, via referral
    credits.
    5. Offer car insurance discounts (up to 100%) to ride service drivers based on quality
    of edge-case discoveries and driver safety.

    It has to be a lot cheaper as Elon said at one stage robotaxi's would be $1 per mile. If we roughly translate that into Au/NZD its $1 per km. I do 900km a month so the robotaxi would cost me $900NZD a month, no way do I pay that much for an EV. It would have to be 1/2 that to start to become interesting.

    Taking a Model 3 or Y and removing all of the driver necessities to produce a Robo Taxi could reduce the cost. Tesla has 4 factories producing Model Y's so in theory Tesla could quickly produce a large volume of Robo Taxi's quickly. I doubt most of know Elon's plan but I suspect this is not just about taking over the Taxi business. It's about transportation measured in miles driven not by units sold. To fuel these miles electricity is needed. When that demand is there Tesla can be it's supplier.

    Scenario: Satya, Sundar, Sam, Demis, Elon, and Jensen in a race to AGI. Who wins?
    My pick is Elon because while Jensen has access to robots enabling real world embodied AI, only Elon has easy access to orbital space. Access to orbital space enables a space based solar powered computing network composed of both classical and quantum computers. Terrestrial data centers and quantum computers require massive and costly energy inputs and cooling systems. In space this is a non-issue as direct solar radiation and near absolute zero ambient temperatures offer optimal environmental conditions for self sustaining classical and quantum computer networks.

The CyberTruck and probably future Tesla vehicles will have an additional camera on the front bumper.

    as it was in the beginning with electric cars...electricity was cheap, it was the cheapest way to drive your own car. However, as more and more people started buying electric cars, they became more and more complicated and expensive, as well as expensive to run and own. The only worldwide car company that tries to get cost down is tesla (but they are still too expensive for more than 50% of the people in the world). The robotaxi's will do the same: be cheap in the beginning and then be as expensive, or more expensive than what normal taxi's are now. We have seen this happen with Uber and other apps like it. Greed is the reason all of them become more expensive. Yes, every company needs to make money, but having 50-90% profit from what you sell is called being greedy

    If Elon only offers a model 2 ROBOTAXI, that marks the end of Tesla. People want to own a Tesla model 2, a robotaxi makes no sense. Perhaps the profit margin on a Tesla model 2 is too small to just sell it on the market, so Elon gambles on another business model taking over the taxi business (??). No problem, I wait for a solar Aptera anyway, see you Elon.

    As an engineer, I can tell you definitively that electric vehicles are a scam. Now even ordinary people are beginning to see past the hype. Brace yourselves for destruction.

      Hybrids are the scam. A car needs one engine to go around, they sell you TWO. 😂
