In this episode of Kilowatt, host Bodie clears out a massive news queue before heading into a well-deserved family break. We dive deep into Tesla’s self-certification of Level 4 autonomous vehicles in Texas, its dedicated new Robotaxi hub, and the real data behind its actual fleet size. Meanwhile, BYD announces a groundbreaking policy to accept full crash liability when its "God's Eye" driver-assist system is active, and Waymo officially begins testing its next-gen, purpose-built Ojai robotaxis in the US.
