The “CyberCab” Robotaxi, which will be priced under $30,000 USD ($41,000 CAD roughly), aims to provide a point-to-point transport service that anyone can access. With no driver fees or need for costly equipment like radar or lidar, the Robotaxi relies on Tesla’s camera-based Full Self-Driving (FSD) system. Musk also suggested someone in the future could manage a fleet of these and make passive income.
Musk noted that operating costs for the Robotaxi could drop to as low as 20 cents per mile, making it an economical option for daily use.
Tesla also introduced the Robovan, a multi-purpose vehicle that can be customized for a variety of needs, whether as a school bus, cargo van, or even an RV. The Robovan seats up to 20 passengers and is designed to support both personal and commercial applications, allowing for fewer vehicles on the road and more efficient use. It looks like a van out of the Jetsons.
Musk discussed the future rollout of the company’s unsupervised FSD technology, which is expected to start in Texas and California by 2025 for Model 3 and Model Y. The CyberCab will follow with production beginning in 2026. But we know Musk’s lofty timelines and promises so it will be interesting if that timeline is on point or not. He did emphasize, “before 2027” as the start of production (which we assume is late 2026).
What’s your guess on when these will actually come to life? Some doubted the Cybertruck and that is actually being produced and sold.
These driverless cars are intended to operate continuously, maximizing the time they spend in use. “One vehicle could be on the road 168 hours a week instead of just 10,” Musk explained. “That’s a 5 to 10 times increase in value.”
