There's been some discussion over Twitter and online forums about Tesla, Uber, and Lyft. The biggest question and discussion I'm seeing is around, "Will Tesla make Uber and Lyft Obsolete?" That is, will Tesla put Uber and Lyft out of business?

The answer to this question depends on several things and I'll go over what those are now, along with what I think Tesla, Uber, and Lyft should each do individually.

As you probably know, if you've been reading my articles, Tesla is working on software that will allow a Tesla vehicle to drive itself, FSD Right now, the software is in a beta, which means it is not ready to be released to every Tesla customer just yet and it requires human intervention to pay attention to roads in case the car makes a mistake.

Uber and Lyft are two ride sharing businesses, meaning anyone can use their car to drive people around and make money doing so. Uber and Lyft have opened up a new category of job for people who want to earn money while driving around.

Tesla would put Uber and Lyft out of business if it can solve FSD in the next year. If we start to see autonomous robotaxis from Tesla in 2023, this is going to be very bad for Uber and Lyft. 2023 is coming in less than a year and there are no other widely spread autonomous platforms that come close to Tesla, despite what "news" you might hear.

My Take: This is what I have been saying for a while. Tesla solves FSD Tesla then starts its RoboTaxi service. Tesla will be putting cars on the road at cost whereas Uber and Lyft will be buying them at retail prices from Tesla. Big trouble for Uber and Lyft.
