  1.  @richardle3212  Chinese EVs are beating Tesla in price, quality and innovation Tesla is seen as a laggard in China these days and people are basically buying it because of brand name As for the robotaxis (Because we the average westerner is too lazy to read past a headline) Go read just the recent headlines from Western Mainstream Media On Elon Musk’s Tesla trip to China (before you read the rest of this) Reading only those headlines You would get the impression, Tesla is introducing FSD and Robotaxis into the Chinese domestic market When Baidu the company the Chinese Government partnered Tesla with???? As of Q3 2022 has already done 1.4 million paid robotaxi rides As of Q3 2023 4.1 million paid robotaxi rides you really have to dig into multiple western media articles to gleen this real information… rather than Tesla is going there to introduce robotaxis A simple search will tell you Tesla is level 2 Autonomous Baidu is level 4 Autonomous 👇 Baidu starts offering nighttime driverless taxis December 26, 2022 Starting this week, the public can ride its robotaxis in Wuhan between 7 am and 11 pm without safety drivers behind the wheel. Previously, its unmanned vehicles could only operate from 9 am to 5 pm in the city. The updated scheme is expected to cover one million customers in certain areas of Wuhan, a city of more than 10 million people. Like most autonomous vehicle startups, Baidu combines a mix of third-party cameras, radar and lidar to help its cars see better in low-visibility conditions, in contrast to Tesla’s vision-based solution. In August, Baidu started offering fully driverless robotaxi rides, charging passengers at taxi rates. In Q3, Apollo Go, the firm’s robotaxi hailing app, completed more than 474,000 rides, up 311% year over year. Accumulatively, Apollo Go had exceeded 1.4 million orders as of Q3. TC
