Elon Musk declared Tesla's Robotaxi as the winner over Waymo's autonomous vehicle service, citing Tesla's 438,000 miles logged in Austin in a single week versus Waymo's 406,000 weekly average in that city. However, the comparison is limited to one city and one week of Tesla data against a four-month-old Waymo figure. Nationally, Waymo continues to operate significantly more driverless miles than Tesla, averaging roughly seven times more weekly across the United States.

Key points

  • Tesla logged 438,000 miles in Austin in one week
  • Waymo's average: 406,000 weekly miles in Austin
