Tesla Drops Against the Trend: Still Bullish on Robotaxi?

Tesla fell nearly 4% as its sales in Europe have declined for five consecutive months. However, after the long-awaited launch of its autonomous taxi service in Austin, some analysts remain optimistic about Tesla's performance.

Tesla Enters a New Cycle: The Ambition and Uncertainty Behind Its Low-Key Robotaxi Launch

Last Sunday, Tesla $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ launched its first Robotaxi pilot project in Austin, Texas. Although the initial rollout was modest—featuring just about 10 Model Y vehicles equipped with FSD (Full Self-Driving) software instead of the previously announced Cybercab—the cars operated within a designated area, accompanied by safety drivers. The first group of riders, carefully selected by Tesla, only had to pay a fixed shareholder fare of $4.20. Despite the low-key nature of the launch, this milestone marks Tesla's long-awaited delivery on a promise years in the making. It is widely regarded as a critical inflection point, signaling the company’s entry into its next strategic phase. Source: X Tesla Finally Delivers on Its Robotaxi Pledge As e

$Pony AI Inc(PONY)$   While Tesla often dominates the robotaxi conversation with its vertically integrated approach, Uber could also be a significant beneficiary of advancements from companies like Pony.ai in autonomous vehicle technology. Uber already possesses a vast global ride-hailing network and operational experience with fleet management, pricing algorithms, and passenger demand patterns. By integrating Pony.ais autonomous driving system into its platform, Uber could reduce dependency on human drivers, slash operational costs, and potentially offer more consistent and reliable service—especially in urban areas where demand is high. This partnership model also allows Uber to stay agile without heavily investing in its own autonomous veh

I think Tesla’s robotaxic launch does mark the start of a new era. It is inportant for it to enter and establish itself as the leader in this area. Personally, I’m not bullish on Tesla as Elon is eccentric and many other competitors have proven their ability to catch up as seen in the area of EVs. There are also many other companies developing robotaxic and that would intensify competition. I believe the Chinese firms like pony AI and weride will quickly catch up and the large Chinese consumer base along with government’s support will help catapult them to again beat Tesla. I definitely will not buy Tesla and not leveraged ETFs. I would put $350 as my price target and ceiling of $400 unless the subsequent earnings are spectacular or Elon has greater plans to propel Tesla further.

🌟🌟🌟Tesla $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Robotaxi debut in Austin Texas initially excited investors but early missteps like erratic driving have sparked a federal investigation and a 2% stock dip. Despite this, analysts remain bullish with price targets between USD 400 and USD 500, hinging on a smooth rollout and broader market conditions. TSLL $Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares(TSLL)$ the leveraged ETF tied to Tesla could benefit even more if the rally continues. Tesla faces stiff competition from autonomous leaders like Waymo, Baidu and Pony.ai, all of which have more mature and safer deployments.  Nonetheless Tesla's integrated AI and hardware strategy keep it in the race. Reaching USD 400 in June is pos

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ $YIELDMAX TSLA OPTION INCOME STRATEGY ETF(TSLY)$ 🤖🚗📈The $4.20 Inflection: Tesla’s Robotaxi Launch Just Redefined the Game📈🚗🤖 Let me be clear, I’d absolutely ride in a fully self-driving Tesla. Not for the thrill, not to say I was early, but because it’s logically safer, more efficient, and built on one of the largest real-world datasets in history. When you understand how neural networks process edge-case driving behaviour millions of times faster than any human ever could, it becomes irrational not to trust it. I don’t want my life in the hands of a tired driver scrolling through notifications. I’d rather it be managed b

Wow great for Tesla. But I think Robot Taxi still far away. Need a few more year to get mature. Right now I still focus on AI stock

$Pony AI Inc(PONY)$ if you are still holding to pony stocks. Good. Look at the big volume coming in vs big volume going out. It's going to be a big leap soon. The idea of self driving has already become a reality where many countries have starting to adopt.  When there is adoption , means there is real life case. And when there is real life case, it will exponentially take of from being just potential. This will be the biggest gain. The only downside, is that there are some competitors, therefore; pony has to always develop new strategies and expand their portfolio of self driving .

Thank you
Tesla’s robotaxi debut has gotten off to a promising yet highly controlled start. Early users report smooth, reliable daily rides, though the system still depends on safety humans and remote support. The trial remains small-scale and invite-only, with regulators and watchdogs urging caution. Nevertheless, investor enthusiasm has surged, signaling powerful optimism about Tesla’s autonomous future. Next steps to watch: • Expansion beyond the invite-only phase • Vehicle count growth (to hundreds or more) • Transition away from onboard safety monitors • Resolution of weather and liability regulatory barriers by September So far the feedback has been generally positive. Riders praised the robotaxi’s ability to handle street features: “Super smooth, it’s literally like riding in a Tesla…zero dra

Profit taking after the spectacular rise the day before is normal. But what is more a concern is there were already two reports of the Robotaxi going wrong during the first day trial. If this repeats, this may cause the project to be delayed even more as safety concerns are paramount when it comes to autonomous car use.

🚗 Tesla's Robotaxi Is Finally Live—What’s Next for the Stock? $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$  Tesla just launched its long-delayed Robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, offering ride-hailing without a driver. The stock jumped nearly 4%—but is this just a hype rally, or the start of a much bigger move? 🤖 What Makes This Launch Different? Unlike rivals like Waymo or Cruise, Tesla isn't using bulky LiDAR systems or limiting the cars to specific zones. It’s going “vision only”—using cameras and AI trained on millions of real-world miles. That's bold, and risky. But if it works, it could change the entire self-driving industry. 💰 What’s the Market Opportunity? If Tesla can scale Robotaxi across major cities, even a small share of the $1T global ride-haili

if Robotaxi takes off and demand is strong, $400 isn't impossible, but we still need to watch the overall market.  Don't FOMO!

I think we will need a bigger geography for robotaxi and a user base that doesn't just include Tesla friendly influencers. If other cities open up, we should be riding up nicely.
