Tesla is set to introduce its robotaxi service in San Antonio, marking the fourth Texas city for this initiative. The service will commence at 5 a.m. local time on Monday, although details regarding operational hours and vehicle types remain unspecified. Tesla's approach typically involves starting with a limited fleet and gradually expanding the service area.
The company has been progressively rolling out its robotaxi services since launching in Austin in June 2025. While Tesla has seen some growth in its autonomous vehicle fleet, recent data indicated a decline in miles driven with paying customers in the second quarter of this year.
As Tesla launches its robotaxi service in San Antonio, keep an eye on how it compares to competitors like Waymo. Watch for updates on operational details and fleet expansion, as well as the impact on local transportation dynamics and regulatory developments.
