Tesla's Texas robotaxi fleet is now just 55 cars behind Waymo's
Tesla has 1,204 robotaxis registered as automated vehicles in Texas, 55 fewer than Waymo's 1,259, according to Robotaxi Tracker, a site that checks the Texas DMV's automated-vehicle list every hour. As of Oct. 31, 2026, Tesla's count was 631 Model Ys and 573 Cybercabs, all model year 2026, while Waymo's was 863 Jaguar I-Paces and 396 Zeekr-built Ojai vans. X user Nic Cruz Patane flagged the numbers on Oct. 31, writing that Tesla is about to pass Waymo's fleet in the state. The tracker shows Tesla has added about 1,135 vehicles since it began polling on June 11.
What the registrations don't show
One caveat: a registration only puts a car on a state list. It does not show how many cars are carrying paying riders, or how many drive with no one in the driver's seat.
