"The Cybercab, which is detailed for the year 2030, has an exceptionally low cost of operation, which is something Tesla revealed when it unveiled the vehicle a year and a half ago at the "We, Robot" event in Los Angeles. Musk said on numerous occasions that Tesla plans to hit the $0.20 cents per mile mark with the Cybercab, describing a "clear path" to achieving that figure and emphasizing it is the "full considered" cost, which would include energy, maintenance, cleaning, depreciation, and insurance."
"ARK's report showed that the Cybercab would be roughly half the cost of the Waymo 6th Gen Robotaxi in 2030, as that would come in at around $0.40 per mile all in. Cybercab, at scale, would be at $0.20. This would be a dramatic decrease in the cost of operation for Tesla, and the savings would then be passed on to customers who choose to utilize the ride-sharing service for their own transportation needs."
Tesla’s Cybercab targets an all-in operating cost of about $0.20 per mile by 2030, covering energy, maintenance, cleaning, depreciation, and insurance. ARK Invest’s analysis estimates Cybercab will cost roughly half per mile compared with the Waymo 6th Gen Robotaxi projected at $0.40 per mile. The reduced operating expense could make ride-sharing substantially cheaper than current Uber/Lyft rates and average vehicle ownership. Tesla seeks drivetrain efficiency around 5.5–6 miles per kWh based on prototype testing. Engineering simplification and scale economies are expected to drive these cost efficiencies and allow savings to be passed to customers.
