The idea of the Tesla network is that customers of the service are capable of providing their vehicles to other drivers and also displace them at their own free will. This system is just like the one where homeowners can rent their home to seeking individuals on Airbnb.
Tesla will be providing automobiles from its own fleet in cases where customer vehicles are lesser than the demand. Although, the company still has improvements to make in their driving system.
Tesla’s manifestation of a self-driving car at present is basically hyped travel control. Despite the fact that it can handle various driving tasks, the drivers are mandated to not take their hands off the wheel.
Self-Driving Cars

Considering the CEO’s unpredictable nature for the last few years combined with his greater than before ownership of the company; it is so hard to tell what his actual; plans will mean for Tesla’s shareholders.
