So many legal hurdles to clear before something like that could ever be released in the wild, I should think.
Regulations, insurance, driver training, where would you be able to operate it? Of course cost might be an issue for some. And just imagine all the unprecedented new kinds of vehicle injuries.
Maybe it could go another way. Plop down your cash on the barrelhead, agree to operate it safely and legally, sign away your life and all your rights, and off you go.

It’s hard to realize how something can be so damn amazing and so useless at the same time. This is not the Tesla that made the model 3 and that makes me sad but it still might be the best thing I’ve ever watched. It’s also perfectly on trend with the 100000 videos of robots doing crazy dances but no actual work. Whatever. Still cool.
