Austinites may soon be able to hop in a Tesla robotaxi, as Elon Musk's electric vehicle maker targets a possible June 12 launch and has already started testing its driverless Model Y vehicles in the city.

Tesla has been testing its robotaxis without a human driver for several days, and the service should roll out to customers next month, CEO Elon Musk says.

City officials say they're unaware of Tesla's plans to roll out self-driving taxis in Texas, according to reports.
