休斯敦 Robotaxi 扩张后出现绕行问题
Tesla 将休斯敦 Robotaxi 服务区从西北哈里斯县扩展至市中心和贝莱尔，RobotaxiTracker 估计新增面积为 229 平方英里。然而，乘客报告称，部分上车点无法使用，等待和绕行时间较长，其中一段两个街区的行程报价约 40 分钟，另一段 13 英里通勤耗时约 80 分钟。Tesla 未回应 Business Insider 的置评请求。
在大规模扩张服务区后出现的这些具体运营问题，引发了对其新覆盖区域内路线规划和上车系统可靠性的关注。
Riders of Tesla’s Robotaxi service in Houston are reporting long detours and pickup points the app will not accept, Business Insider reported on Wednesday. The problems come days after Tesla greatly expanded the area the service covers.
Tesla announced the larger service area on Monday with a post reading “Houston, we have liftoff.” The new zone, drawn in the shape of a rocket, stretches from northwest Harris County to downtown Houston and Bellaire.
The expansion added an estimated 229 square miles, according to RobotaxiTracker, a site that monitors the service. Waymo’s robotaxi zone in Houston covers about 50 square miles, Business Insider reported.
