Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, estimates the global autonomous taxi market could reach between $8 trillion and $10 trillion, with robotaxis expected to be the first commercial application for Level 4 vehicle autonomy.

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) is positioned as a leader in this emerging market, investing heavily in AI and autonomy, including a $2 billion stake in xAI.
