"why no 4-seater?"

Model 3 and Y can also work as robotaxis Or the robobus so you choose which car you will need based on your head and luggage count.

My post and estimates on Linkedin

#tesla hashtag#robotaxi is coming and it's hashtag#aerodynamics look great.
-No mirrors
-teardrop roofline
- pretty low ground clearance
- tight wheel arches
- hard to say the wheel and tire size yet but looks little narrower than model 3. -->Front 215/60R18 --> rear 225/60R21 wheels and tires from continental
- fully closed wheelcovers

All this should lead to Cd around 0.20 range - +0.01 tolerance. No mention of that yet. I can give better estimate when I see some closeup videos on the car from the event. The impact ofcourse is that you can use smaller battery and make lighter car.

I would say the robotaxi will use a lot of underside body parts from model 3 as the size seemed to match more that vehicle.

The fully closed wheelcover makes it possible to design a very ligth wheel as looks are not so important, one of the reasons why my wheelcovers are also fully closed.

what is hurting aero is no tire spats.
Air curtains are a mystery but I guess they are there same way as model 3.

Those wheels and tire could have been smaller.

Roofline is within few mm from MB EQXX roofline.
