Elon Musk's Delusional Tesla Robotaxi Claims vs Waymo's Reality (20 mill Trips)

from The John Johnston Lounge · host John Johnston

John Johnston (JJ) breaks down the Tesla and Waymo news that Elon Musk has claimed that robotaxi rival Waymo “never had a chance” against Tesla, despite Tesla not yet having deployed even one fully autonomous, paid robotaxi ride without an in-car safety monitor, while Waymo is about to pass the twenty million milestone. Elon is now saying the Tesla will deploy fully driverless robotaxis in Austin in about three weeks, without safety monitors. Related episodes:Tesla's Rough Month: Sales Drops, Robotaxi Cuts, Model Y Defects https://open.spotify.com/episode/1KieNeplYRuu6mAlIMRS6V‘Big Short’ Burry Slams Tesla: "Ridiculously Overvalued" https://open.spotify.com/episode/6ifpJOikaer1ipPqyGQ0DJElon Musk’s WILDEST Tesla Optimus Robot Claims https://open.spotify.com/episode/4QbgkOLIopzzgyHV89DnhLReferenced articles:Elon Musk delusionally claims Waymo ‘never had a chance’ against Tesla  https://electrek.co/2025/12/10/elon-musk-waymo-never-had-chance-against-tesla/Tesla CEO Elon Musk claims driverless Robotaxis coming to Austin in 3 weeks https://electrek.co/2025/12/09/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-claims-driverless-robotaxis-coming-to-austin-in-3-weeks/Disclaimer: I am not a financial adviser and nothing in this content is financial advice.
