Zoox cofounder Jesse Levinson says there’s ‘no chance’ Tesla will launch fully self-driving cars next year, despite Elon Musk’s claims
When asked if there’s “any chance” that Tesla will have fully self-driving cars ready next year as Tesla CEO Elon Musk has claimed, Zoox cofounder and CTO Jesse Levinson had a one-word answer: “No.”
Speaking with transportation reporter Mark Matousek on stage at Business Insider’s IGNITION: Transportation event in San Francisco Tuesday, Levinson said that the existing technology for fully autonomous vehicles simply doesn’t exist yet – it’s something that both Tesla and Zoox, a startup designing autonomous ride-share vehicles, are still developing.
