Tesla Robotaxis Expand in Florida | Tech News

Tesla’s robotaxi service is quietly expanding to Orlando and Tampa, Florida — its third test city in the Sunshine State — just ahead of its big second-quarter earnings report. While CEO Elon Musk has long dreamed of nationwide robotaxi coverage by 2025, progress has been methodical, city by city. The move comes as regulators in the U.S. Department of Transportation consider loosening rules that require brake pedals, potentially paving the way for Tesla’s smaller, two-seater autonomous vehicles. This latest rollout signals Tesla’s continued commitment to the vision — even if it’s unfolding slower than some hoped. Keep watching: the tech and the rules are both evolving fast.
