More on Elon Musk’s robotaxi promises from over the years.

After a report from Reuters said Tesla’s $25,000 Model 2 project got the ax, Elon Musk quickly scheduled a Tesla Robotaxi launch on August 8th.

Bennett Tomlin checks them out in this video, which you have plenty of time to watch before August.
