Tesla opens Cybercab pre-orders ‘for personal use,’ with geo restrictions and a $299 monthly fee

详细摘要

Even Elon Musk said the monthly fee is "too high."

Tesla said on Friday evening that “select customers” now have the opportunity to pre-order the company’s autonomous, golden Cybercab “for personal use.”

In addition to the $29,990 price tag, Cybercab owners will need to pay $299 per month to operate their vehicle.

In response to Brownlee’s post, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the Cybercab “will be available nationwide, as we receive regulatory approval.” He added that the monthly fee is “too high”: “Should match the cost of Tesla [Full Self-Driving] and connectivity for other models, which is more like ~$115/month.”

Tesla’s Ashok Elluswamy offered more information about the geofencing, saying that Cybercab will work “unsupervised inside all the same geo locations as @robotaxi, just serving the owners’ needs.”

After falling far short of projected sales, Tesla recently announced it will cease Cybertruck production next year and use the additional factory capacity to build more Cybercabs.
