Tesla announces its Robotaxi service rollout in Dallas and Houston, marking the company's first expansion beyond Austin and San Francisco. The company shares maps of the new service areas, which cover small slices of each city.
Early user analysis of the maps shows the Houston geofence covers approximately 25 square miles. The Dallas zone centers around the Highland Park area.
Tesla's official @robotaxi account on X posts the announcement with two map images and the text: "Robotaxi now rolling out in Dallas & Houston." The post provides no details on fleet size, whether rides will be supervised or unsupervised, or pricing.
For context, Tesla's Austin geofence has grown to roughly 245 square miles after months of gradual expansion, starting from an initial 20-square-mile footprint that took nearly a year to reach.

The Circuitry is a passion project I've always wanted to build, and I love the work behind it.
Running it costs real money. APIs, hosting, time. To keep improving the site and growing this into something useful for everyone, those costs have to be covered.
Any contribution is appreciated. If not, no pressure. Thanks for reading.
