Notwithstanding, his helpers purportedly persuaded him regarding the requirement for a less expensive EV that would engage more clients and extend Tesla's portion of the overall industry. They likewise proposed that Tesla could construct both the Model 2 and the robotaxi on a cutting edge designing stage utilizing a similar mechanical production systems. Musk in the end consented to this thought and turned out to be more energetic about the $25,000 car in the wake of seeing a plan survey meeting in February 2023.
Musk has not given any authority update on the status or timetable of the Model 2 or the robotaxi from that point forward. He has just alluded to them during Tesla's second quarter profit bring in July 2023, when he said that the devoted robotaxi would be a "enormous driver of Tesla's development" and that it would be "an exceptionally strong item" that individuals would discuss for 100 years. He additionally said that Tesla was gaining ground on its FSD programming and equipment, however gave no particular subtleties or dates.
Tesla fans and financial backers are enthusiastically sitting tight for more data on these undertakings, as they could altogether affect Tesla's future development and productivity.
