Tesla Shares Drop 6% After Robotaxi Unveiling Delay
📉 Stock Plunge Amidst Delay
Tesla's stock fell approximately 6% on Thursday following a Bloomberg report that the electric vehicle maker is delaying the unveiling of its Robotaxi by two months.
🚗 Delayed Launch Details
Initially set for an August 8 introduction, Tesla has postponed the launch to October to allow more time for prototype development, according to Bloomberg, citing sources familiar with the situation.
Tesla did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment.
📈 Recent Rally Reversed
The stock drop on Thursday came after an 11-day rally driven by a better-than-expected second-quarter deliveries report, which had previously erased the stock's losses for the year. However, the shares are now back in negative territory for 2024, a year that has seen significant layoffs and a decline in sales due to an aging lineup of EVs and increased competition in China.
🤖 Musk's Robotaxi Promises
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has long promised shareholders a robotaxi. In 2015, he claimed Tesla’s cars would achieve “full autonomy” within three years. In 2016, Musk said Tesla would be able to send one of its cars on a cross-country drive without any human intervention by the end of the following year.
📅 Unmet Deadlines
These promises extended into 2019, when Musk told institutional investors that Tesla would have one million robotaxi-ready vehicles on the road in 2020. However, the company has yet to deliver a robotaxi, an autonomous vehicle, or technology that can transform its cars into “level 3” automated vehicles. Meanwhile, competitors like Alphabet’s Waymo and General Motors-owned Cruise have outpaced Tesla.
🚀 Future Vision Reiterated
During a lackluster first-quarter earnings report in April, Musk reiterated his vision for Tesla as a company focused on developing robotaxis that will generate income for their owners and create a driverless transportation network.
“If somebody doesn’t believe Tesla’s going to solve autonomy, I think they should not be an investor in the company,” Musk stated on the earnings call. The company is expected to report second-quarter results later this month.
⏳ Unveil vs. Release
At Tesla, “unveil” dates do not necessarily indicate an imminent commercial release of a new product. For instance, Tesla unveiled its fully electric heavy-duty truck, the Semi, in 2017, but did not begin deliveries until December 2022.
