14:46Now PlayingUber Technologies Inc. Chief Executive Officer Dara Khosrowshahi said Elon Musk was not open to making Tesla Inc.’s planned robotaxis available on the ride-sharing platform, making Uber a future competitor.
“I’ve had conversations with him at this point,” Khosrowshahi said Friday in an interview with Bloomberg TV’s Manus Cranny at the FII conference in Miami. “They want to build it alone, so to some extent in Austin, we and Waymo will be competing with Tesla when they launch,” he said, referring to Alphabet Inc.’s autonomous-vehicle unit. “Life is long, but we would love to partner with them.”
Khosrowshahi added that it would make “a lot of economic sense” for Uber to be a platform for Tesla drivers. “What we bring is demand to the AV ecosystem when demand often is quite variable.”
A Tesla spokesperson did not respond to an emailed request for comment.
