In 2021, the automaker will sell about 936,200 pure electric cars worldwide.
Tesla produced approximately 305,900 vehicles globally in 2021.
In 2021, the company earned more than 53.5 billion US dollars.
Thanks to technology the world has taken a different turn. That is why currently many brands that are dedicated to this industry continue to carry out new projects such as Tesla, which according to Elon Musk, detailed that his robotaxi will be like Uber and Airbnb.
The use of robots has become a trend today. From domestic to industrial, the use of robots in our daily lives makes our tasks easier every day, both at home and at work. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR, for its acronym in English) there were 42 thousand 041 industrial robots installed in Latin America at the end of 2017.
Likewise, according to a BBVA study, “Robotics does not aspire to replace human beings by mechanizing and automating tasks, but rather to find ways of more effective collaboration between robots and people”.
This will be the Tesla robotaxi
Although it seems that it will not arrive, development of Tesla’s proposed robotaxi service continues and will work everywhere, even on another planet, according to Elon Musk.
The tycoon said Thursday at the company’s annual meeting of shareholders that the system is not being designed with a launch city in mind, the way competitors have approached the concept.
“Tesla is developing a general solution for autonomous driving”Musk said. “If you were to create a kind of randomly generated alternate Earth, our system would still work,” added the considered richest man in the world.
Musk added that regulatory hurdles will limit where it can be deployed, but he is confident that the full autonomous driving system that will enable it will one day live up to its name.
Autonomous transportation competitors Cruise and Waymo have focused their efforts on individual cities, where constant and hyper-precise mapping of the environment is key to the functionality of your systems.
Tesla collects data from owners of its cars running a beta version of the system, a process that has drawn the ire of many critics. “Over 40 million miles have been driven with the feature on and it is expected to reach 100 million miles soon.” Musk added.
According to the report presented by TeslaIn 2021, he recorded, the company entered more than 53.5 billion US dollars.
Also, at the meeting when Tesla’s fully autonomous driving is fully operational, Musk said that the owners of the tech company will have the option to use it themselves or add their cars to the robotaxi fleet to earn money when they are not needed.
“I think it would end up being a kind of combination of Airbnb and Uber,” he adds.
“Look how many cars are parked. There are parking lots full of cars everywhere. Because cars need a driver, so most of the time they don’t do anything.”
Musk estimated that a typical vehicle added to the system would see its usage increase from 12 hours a week to 60 hours a week and become a revenue generator.
Tesla is not the only brand in the vehicle industry that has driver assistance, Super Cruise of General Motors has limited partial automation, it also works only on road sections that have been validated by scanning and inspection by the company itself.
Let’s remember that GM also announced this week that it is doubling the approved highway network to 400,000 miles in North America. and said owners have covered 35 million miles using Super Cruise since its launch in 2017.
In this sense, the importance of technology in people’s lives continues to grow, but especially in many industries around the world.
