Tesla stock surged 8.2% after launching Robotaxi service in Austin, Texas. CEO Elon Musk praised the event as a decade of hard work. Analyst Daniel Ives was impressed with the self-driving taxis’ performance, calling it a game-changer for autonomous driving. The company aims to expand to more U.S. cities by year-end.
Despite recent success, Tesla faced challenges earlier this year with slower EV sales and declining revenue. The company reported weak earnings, with a 20% drop in automotive revenue and a 71% decrease in net income. However, Wall Street analysts believe Tesla’s stock value hinges on its robotaxi and humanoid robot services.
Analyst Daniel Ives described the Robotaxi experience as comfortable, safe, and personalized. He believes this launch marks the beginning of a $1 trillion autonomous journey for Tesla. The company plans to integrate more features like Grok integration and interior customization to enhance user experience.
Wedbush has the highest price target for Tesla among Wall Street analysts. UBS analyst Joseph Spak raised his price target to $215, but warned that the autonomous ride-hailing opportunity is already priced into the stock. Wall Street analysts have an average price target of $287 for Tesla, representing a 17.7% downside from the current price.
