텍사스 오스틴 25년 자율주행택시 시작을 위해 테슬라와 협의중

테슬라는 현재 텍사스주 오스틴 시 당국과 자율주행 차량 기술 도입에 대해 초기 논의를 진행 중입니다. 이 논의는 2025년까지 텍사스에서 자율주행 차량을 도입하려는 테슬라의 계획의 일환으로 보입니다. 공개된 기록에 따르면, 테슬라는 2024년 5월부터 오스틴의 자율주행 차량 태스크포스와 협력하여 안전 프로토콜을 수립해 왔습니다. 오스틴이 텍사스 내 첫 자율주행 차량 운영 도시가 될지는 아직 결정되지 않았으며, 테슬라는 여러 옵션을 검토 중입니다.

이 계획은 테슬라의 자율주행 기술 발전을 위한 지속적인 노력과 맞물려 있습니다. 엘론 머스크 CEO는 텍사스와 캘리포니아에서 "감독 없는" 완전 자율주행(FSD) 시스템을 출시할 계획을 이미 발표한 바 있으며, 올해 초에는 페달과 핸들이 없는 로보택시 "사이버캡" 프로토타입도 공개했습니다.

그러나 이러한 계획이 실현되기 위해서는 규제 승인과 안전 문제 해결이 필수적입니다. 이번 오스틴 당국과의 논의는 테슬라가 이러한 도전 과제를 해결하고 미래 도입을 위한 기반을 마련하려는 노력의 일환으로 보입니다.

 Tesla is currently in early discussions with officials in Austin, Texas, regarding the deployment of its autonomous vehicle technology. These talks are part of Tesla's broader plans to introduce self-driving vehicles in Texas, potentially as early as 2025. Public records indicate that Tesla has been engaging with Austin's autonomous vehicle task force since at least May 2024 to establish safety protocols for these vehicles. The company is still evaluating whether Austin will be the first city in Texas to host its driverless fleets, as it considers multiple options within the state[1][5][6].

This initiative aligns with Tesla's ongoing push to advance autonomous driving technologies. CEO Elon Musk has previously announced plans to roll out an "unsupervised" version of Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system in Texas and California, marking a significant leap toward fully autonomous operations. Tesla also showcased a prototype of its pedal-less, steering wheel-free robotaxi, dubbed the "Cybercab," earlier this year[1][2][5].

While Tesla's ambitions are bold, regulatory approval remains a key hurdle. The company must address safety concerns and meet stringent legal requirements before deploying autonomous fleets on public roads. These discussions with Austin authorities reflect Tesla's efforts to navigate these challenges and lay the groundwork for future deployments[1][5][6].
