Tesla Announces Robotaxi Event in Los Angeles: How You Can Attend

Tesla has officially confirmed an exciting upcoming event: the unveiling of its highly anticipated Robotaxi on October 10th in Los Angeles. The company’s Investor Relations department announced that Tesla shareholders have a chance to attend the event through a lottery system. Interested shareholders must register by September 17th at midnight, and the winners will be revealed during the week of September 23rd.

How to Sign Up

To qualify, participants need to own Tesla stock ($TSLA). Shareholder status will be verified through Tesla’s Investor Relations site. The number of entries depends on the number of shares held, meaning shareholders with more stock will have a greater chance of winning.

Although specifics such as event timing or guest allowances are yet to be revealed, one important condition has been confirmed: the tickets are non-transferable. If you win, the ticket is exclusively for you.

Shareholders based in the United States can utilize Tesla’s partner, ‘Say,’ to automatically verify ownership. International shareholders, however, will need to provide proof of ownership through a recent account statement as of September 2024. Say’s verification process takes 3-5 business days, so signing up early is recommended.

What to Expect at the Robotaxi Event

The event is scheduled to take place at Warner Bros. Discovery Studios in LA. Tesla has been actively collecting Full Self-Driving (FSD) data from the surrounding area, hinting that there will likely be a live demonstration of the Robotaxi’s capabilities. Attendees may even get the chance to ride in the Robotaxi as it navigates through the studio’s sets, showcasing its autonomous driving prowess.

This unveiling is set to be a significant moment in Tesla’s history, as it marks the first public appearance of the Robotaxi—an integral part of Tesla's vision for fully autonomous vehicles, as outlined in Elon Musk’s Masterplan.

Conclusion

For Tesla enthusiasts and shareholders alike, the Robotaxi event promises to be a landmark occasion, offering a glimpse into the future of autonomous transportation. Be sure to register by the deadline for your chance to witness history in the making.
