Tesla Expands Autonomous Testing Fleet in California

WhatsAppWhatsAppFacebookFacebookTwitterTwitterPinterestPinterestRedditRedditGmailGmailShareShare

Tesla started operating 224 driver trainers with 104 vehicles under its autonomous driving test permit in December in California. In 2023 Tesla applied for their permit with 224 drivers and 104 vehicles compared to their 2022 permit with just 14 vehicles and 59 drivers.

The company enhances its robotaxi initiative to satisfy CEO Elon Musk‘s deadline for the Robotaxi launch this year despite his high-level business challenges. The market value of Tesla’s stock decreased by over 40% because customers bought fewer cars while investors feared Elon Musk’s influence in government after Trump’s presidential victory. Even though Tesla retained this permit since 2015 it stopped doing autonomous tests in 2019 to focus entirely on driver-assist software at Level 2.

The company ventures into new testing locations because it engages test drivers across states with relaxed autonomous vehicle regulations such as Texas and Nevada. Tesla applied to operate autonomous ride-hailing but still needs to submit paperwork to test completely driverless cars despite Waymo and Zoox having achieved this milestone.
