Musk eyes to launch robotaxi in Saudi Arabia, where Uber leads the race

Tesla chief Elon Musk plans to introduce robotaxis in Saudi Arabia, including self-driving cars. “You can think of future cars as being robots on four wheels, and I think it would be very exciting to have autonomous vehicles here in the Kingdom if you’re amenable,” Musk said, speaking to Abdullah Alswaha, Saudi’s Minister of Communications and Information Technology, at the US-Saudi Investment Forum on Tuesday.

Musk’s remarks came at a time when Uber is already preparing to launch autonomous vehicles in the kingdom, reports Business Insider.
