the vast majority (about 92%) of rideshare and taxi rides require 2 or fewer passenger seats. For rides needing 5 or 6 seats, reliable distribution data is limited, as these are handled by larger vehicle categories like XL (vans or SUVs). Driver forums suggest XL rides make up roughly 5-10% of total trips. The XL rides also involve 4 or fewer passengers with extra luggage, space preferences, or by mistake. Rides needing 5 seats are 1-3% and 6 seat rides are less than 1%. However, there could be a preference by some riders for XL space vehicles.

Tesla Model Y L sold out for September 2025​

This was hinted at in Tesla China’s configurator for the all-electric crossover.

It appears that the Tesla Model Y L has been sold out in China for September 2025. This was hinted at in Tesla China’s configurator for the all-electric crossover.

Model Y L deliveries​

Since the Model Y L’s official launch earlier this month, Tesla has been pretty consistent in the idea that the extended wheelbase variant of its best-selling vehicle will see its first deliveries sometime in September. This was quite an impressive timeframe for Tesla, considering that the Model Y L has only been launched this August.

Nevertheless, both Tesla China’s Model Y configurator and comments from company executives have noted that the vehicle will see its first customer deliveries in September. “Tesla cars are fun to drive alone, whether you have children or how many children, this car can meet all your needs. We will deliver in September and wait for you to get in the car,” Tesla China VP Grace Tao wrote on Weibo.

Tesla gets state permit to operate its robotaxi service in Texas​

The company has been running a limited pilot program in Austin since June, with safety monitors in self-driving vehicles.


Tesla has scaled another hurdle to its plans to offer robotaxi services in Texas: Last week, the company was granted a permit to offer ride-hailing services in the state.

Tesla has been operating a very limited robotaxi service in Austin since June, offering autonomous rides to influencers and Tesla content creators, with a safety driver in the front seat. Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently said in a social post that robotaxis would be “open access next month.”

Austin American-Statesman technology reporter Karoline Leonard says Tesla will also need approval from the Department of Motor Vehicles before it can launch a publicly available, fully-autonomous service.
