Tesla launches Robotaxi in San Antonio with a 274 sq mi geofence on paper
Tesla is launching its Robotaxi service in San Antonio, its eighth city, with a launch geofence covering about 274 square miles. That’s the biggest day-one map Tesla has ever posted, and more than four times the size of Waymo’s San Antonio service area.
But if Tesla’s recent maps are any guide, a big chunk of that area won’t be bookable. In Austin, an independent check found the Robotaxi app only accepted pickups and drop-offs in about 59% of the zone Tesla advertises.
