Tesla’s futuristic robotaxi vision hit turbulence this week as shares plunged nearly 9% following its much-hyped 『Robotaxi Day』 event – wiping out roughly $70 billion in market value. Investors and analysts questioned the practicality of a two-seater autonomous vehicle concept lacking key details.
Empty Driver’s Seat 🚘
CEO Elon Musk unveiled a minimalist, screen-free design but skipped crucial questions: How will it handle safety incidents? What’s the pricing model? When will it launch globally? Experts called out the absence of a regulatory roadmap. 『Where’s the real-world testing data?』 asked one Jefferies analyst, noting no 『verifiable evidence』 of breakthroughs in Tesla’s camera-only autonomous tech.
Family Trip or Solo Sip? ☕
The two-seater design also raised eyebrows. Would it work for airport-bound families or group dinners? Critics suggested it might cater to niche users rather than mass markets. While Musk promised a 『mind-blowing』 product, skeptics compared the reveal to a 『car-shaped meme』 – viral hype without substance.
What’s Next? 🔮
With Tesla’s stock now resembling a rollercoaster graph 📉, all eyes are on whether the company can translate Musk’s vision into regulatory approvals and consumer trust. For now, the robotaxi remains a sleek enigma – equal parts ambition and unanswered questions.
