Tesla has 589 robotaxis in Texas, tracking two weeks ahead for 3,000 by end of 2026
mitchdeg · x · 2026-10-04
Analysis estimates the fleet Tesla needs to sustain 17% week-over-week growth in paid autonomous miles (assuming 100 paid miles/day per vehicle), with weekly additions tabulated. Texas alone (excluding Florida) has 589 registered robotaxis — roughly two weeks ahead of the required trajectory. Revenue modeled at $2.50/mile; 3,000 vehicles by end of 2026 called a credible target.
