Uber CEO Open to Tesla Robotaxi Partnership

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi expressed interest in Tesla's new Cybercab robotaxi, indicating that he would 'love' to integrate it into Uber's platform. He outlined three potential strategies for Uber in light of Tesla's plans: competing with Tesla, partnering with them, or a combination of both. While the Cybercab is set for production by 2026, Khosrowshahi emphasized that Uber's existing partnerships with companies like Waymo position it well in the evolving autonomous vehicle market. Musk's Cybercab, a two-seater with no traditional controls, aims to disrupt the taxi industry, although its practicality has been questioned. Despite the competition from Tesla, Khosrowshahi believes the market won't result in a single winner, advocating for a spirit of partnership and collaboration. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic about Uber's ability to maintain its market standing amidst Tesla's ambitious launch plans.
