Tesla ‘Robotaxi’ fleet is actually shrinking, not growing, new data shows

1 month ago

Less than a month after we reported that Tesla’s unsupervised “Robotaxi” fleet was finally showing some signs of growth, new data from the Robotaxi Tracker tells a different story. The fleet is actually shrinking.

The number of active unsupervised Tesla “Robotaxis” has dropped to just 20 vehicles — down from the 25 cumulative vehicles we reported in late April — and the total active fleet across all Tesla ride-hailing operations has collapsed to just 34 vehicles.

America is panicking about e-bikes while ignoring the real problem

1 month ago

If you spend enough time reading local news headlines these days, you’d be forgiven for thinking electric bicycles are one of the greatest threats facing American streets.

Ferrari (RACE) stock plunges 6% on Luce EV backlash — don’t panic!
