Tesla’s Robotaxi Geofence Expansion Sparks Online Amusement
Tesla's updated geofence map for its Robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, has drawn unexpected attention for its resemblance to male anatomy. The expansion more than doubles the service area in just 22 days, surpassing Waymo's coverage by at least 4 square miles. The company's playful social media post—"Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger"—and Elon Musk's retweet with the caption "Bigger, longer, uncut" fueled the viral conversation.
The rollout coincides with Tesla's plans to expand the Robotaxi service to the Bay Area in coming weeks. While critics dismissed the MOVE as frivolous, retail investors and fans embraced the humor, highlighting Musk's signature blend of provocation and showmanship.
