By [ Alex Roy](/community/alexroymotorwatt "Alex Roy") in [New Electric Vehicles](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/categories/new-electric-vehicles) 1120 views 12th Jun, 2025 Video Duration: N/A [ Austin, Travis County, Texas, United States](javascript:void(0)) **Tesla's Robotaxi Service to Launch in Austin on June 22** **Tesla is set to launch its highly anticipated robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, on June 22, 2025, following regulatory approval from the Texas Department of Transportation. The service will initially operate in downtown Austin and near the Tesla Gigafactory, using a fleet of modified Model Y vehicles equipped with Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) software and advanced sensors.** **The robotaxi service, part of Tesla’s autonomous driving push, will allow users to book rides via a dedicated app, with fares expected to be competitive with traditional ride-hailing services. Tesla aims to scale the service across Texas cities by 2026, pending further approvals. This launch marks a key milestone in Tesla’s vision for a fully autonomous ride-sharing network, though challenges like regulatory hurdles and public trust in self-driving technology remain.** --- **People In This Video** No users are tagged in this video **Tags**- [\#Robotaxi](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/robotaxi) - [\#tesla\_Y](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/tesla_y) - [\#autonomic\_driving](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/autonomic_driving) - [\#Austin](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/austin) - [\#texas](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/texas) - [\#ev\_motorwatt](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/ev_motorwatt) - [\#electric\_vehicle](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/electric_vehicle) - [\#motorwatt](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/hashtag/motorwatt) No tags available yet --- [ Previous Tesla Semi Update: Production Ramps Up, New Adopters, and Challenges Ahead-1 ](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/tesla-semi-update-production-ramps-up-new-adopters-and-challenges-ahead-1) [ Next Tesla Roadster: The Long-Awaited Electric Supercar Nears Production in 2025 ](/community/community-pages/tesla-news/videos/tesla-roadster-the-long-awaited-electric-supercar-nears-production-in-2025) --- - [ Share](javascript:void(0);) - [Embed](javascript:void(0);) 1 0 0 0 0 0 [ Alex Garin reacted to this ](javascript:void(0);) Comments (0) ## Other Videos N/A [$41,400 Humanoid Robot from Chery Now Available for Online Purchase in China](/community/community-groups/humanoids-of-the-future-humanoid-robots/videos/41-400-humanoid-robot-from-chery-now-available-for-online-purchase-in-china?from=listing) 1.
