Meanwhile, CEO Elon Musk has not responded to a request for comment, so the date has not been confirmed. Previously, he had mentioned the date of October 10, but the location had not been disclosed at the time.

The release schedule to October is actually delayed from its original schedule scheduled for August 8. Musk has previously requested design changes that take longer development time before disclosure.

Regarding its location in the Warner Bros. film studio. The discovery, which is located in My mind, is considered very suitable for Tesla because it has a simulation environment with carefully mapped streets and almost like real life.

Tesla can use this location to demonstrate new autonomous taxis without worrying about general traffic, and its compact location makes it easy to map routes in vehicle software. It should be noted that other companies, such as Alphabet's GM and Waymo Cruises, are testing pre-maps, but their routes are on public roads with vehicles and other pedestrians.
