Tesla CEO Elon Musk first floated the idea of launching a robotaxi network using autonomous Teslas in 2019, saying he expected to begin deployment the following year. But Musk isn’t exactly known for sticking to his timelines.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled on Thursday his vision of a “a fun, exciting future,” an “age of abundance” full of his company’s self-driving cars without steering wheels, parking lots turned into parks and robots that will walk among the population – that he once again promised would be available within a few years.

Musk reached the stage in a "Cybercab" which he said will go into production in 2026 and be priced less than $30,000.
