Tesla's new Robotaxi service is an innovative ride-hailing experience that features an autonomous system without a human driver. Each ride is humorously priced at $4.20, a nod to Elon Musk's playful branding. At the end of the trip, riders encounter a surprise when they are prompted to leave a tip, but upon clicking 'yes', they're met with a humorous 'Just Kidding' as the tip is not accepted. This clever design serves to emphasize the service's affordability in comparison to traditional rideshare platforms.
Each ride costs exactly $4.20 because of course it does. Nothing says autonomous Robotaxi quite like a weed joke and wink from the billionaire CEO.
At the end the trip, the Tesla app displays a screen for the rider to rate the trip quality and leave a comment... It also shows a button asking if they’d like to leave a tip.
Tesla won't actually accept the tip, to be clear. This is an Easter egg in the great Tesla tradition, and a tongue-in-cheek nod to its ability to offer rides at a fraction of the cost.
Had to be done lol, joked CEO Elon Musk on his social media platform, X. Musk has long-promised that Tesla's approach to autonomy would be cheap.
