There is a whirlwind of things that happen Tesla(Nasdaq: Tsla) At this time, both good and bad. On the one hand, the company is dealing with an exodus of talent with multiple executives that leave, a violent reaction of consumers in the political clown of the CEO Elon Musk, the decrease in global sales and an alignment of aged vehicles, to name a few.
On the other hand, the company believes that it can be the most valuable company in the world, since it goes from vehicle production to a company based on artificial intelligence (AI), robotics and driver without driver. The question remains: where will Tesla actions be negotiated throughout this madness?
One of the biggest developments for Tesla investors during the summer occurred in Austin, Texas, where the company launched its Robotaxi pilot. However, three months after its Robotaxi pilot with a small number of model and in operation, it still requires a security controller just in case, and it still works with passengers only by invitation.

Of course, it was a step forward after the company promised for a long time this service, but Tesla is still behind its main rival, Waymo, who is moving to new cities and does not require a security driver to supervise his driver without driver.
While the most slow and smaller initial test may have caused investors to be cautious, musk is still ambitious. During the profits of July 23, Tesla said that the autonomous transport service would reach most of the country and “probably” would address half of the population of the United States at the end of 2025, high objectives, no doubt.
Do not be wrong, this is a great development for investors and bets are high. The slow launch of Tesla has some spectators who pump the brakes.
“It is a recognition that their software is not as mature as they thought and they will need more time with a security driver,” said Carnegie Mellon professor, Philip Koopman, an autonomous vehicle safety expert, according to Automotive news. “It’s fine for everyone, except for the people who invested thinking that there would be one million of these cars on the road for the end of the year,” he said.
Investors looking for a positive side can have to strengthen their eyes to see it more clearly, but it is there. A reason why Tesla is still a serious threat to her rivals as Waymo is because once autonomous technology and robotaxi become completely autonomous, the car manufacturer can easily produce tons of vehicles of her factories in California and Texas.
In the long term, Tesla’s gigafactor production is an advantage. But the company also has a cost advantage over its rivals, since it only uses cameras for autonomous technology, instead of more expensive sensors, such as radar and lidar.
Investors also have to keep in mind that Tesla can be behind at this time, but at the same time it could advance faster than their competitors. In fact, if Tesla can change to any security driver in the next 12 months, that will be faster than any other robotaxi company that has achieved the feat. For the context, Waymo tested for years with security drivers before being completely autonomous, but that was in 2020.
Tesla’s progress with autonomous vehicles has been slower than desired, but investors must focus on whether the company can do it without sensors and do it effectively. At this point, doing it well is much more valuable than doing it faster, that battle can end. That said, Tesla has apparently gone in total in its future transition to only produce vehicles to become an AI, Robotics and Robotaxi services company, which could be lucrative if everything achieved.
Until then, investors will need a lot of patience, especially considering that the third quarter is likely to be strong; Remember that the end of the fiscal credit of $ 7,500 brought the lawsuit to the third quarter. That should be followed by several quarters quite full not only for Tesla but for the broader electric vehicles.
