If I was buying either a 3 or a Y and knew the new model was out, I would wait before I bought it so I get teh most up to date version, only fleet buyers would not care.

Why does Tesla need to sell self driving vehicles, when these vehicles will be printing money? They can keep the money printing machines for themselves. They can gradually increase the money printing fleet as the profits come in. Tesla can just take loans for each money printing self driving vehicles manufactured?

[@taefravis]

I think the point is that if they do that they need to wait over 12 months for the money to come in that repays the cost of making the cabs and that means scaling up takes a longer time and more money. Yes Tesla could take out loans but that is more expense to service the loans however by doing it this way they get the cost of the cabs back up from plus profits. They also make ongoing profits from the FSD software subscription etc as Lars laid out. In time Tesla can have their own fleet of cabs running as taxis or delivery vehicles etc and maximise profits. This makes sense.

[@jewymchoser]

Cybercabs will decimate car ownership. Why go through the hassle when this is cheaper.

[@machoopichoo2]

Agreed. All these people thinking they will own their own cars...most of them will see it's a waste of money.

[@CiaranMcHale]

There is plenty of precedence of people being willing to pay extra money for convenience. For example, cooking from scratch at home is, say, 5x or 10x cheaper than supermarket TV dinners, takeout food, or home delivery of pizza/Chinese food. Likewise, taking home-cooked food into work is far cheaper than buying lunch at the staff canteen. Despite this, many people are willing to pay extra to avoid the inconvenience of cooking from scratch at home. As another example, *some* towns/cities have a climate and road layout suitable for commuting via bicycle, and doing so is, say, 10x to 100x cheaper than commuting via public transport or car. Despite this, relatively few people commute via bicycle. Instead, most people prefer to pay extra for what they perceive as being the convenience of commuting via public transport or car. Likewise, it will probably be more convenient to own an autonomous vehicle rather than use robotaxis exclusively (since your own private vehicles is available immediately, but you have to wait a few minutes for a robotaxi to arrive), and some people will be willing to pay for that convenience. Will some people give up owning a car and instead use robotaxis exclusively? Yes. But I'm not confident in estimating what percentage of people will do that.

[@jewymchoser]

@@CiaranMcHale I appreciate your in depth and well thought out response, kudos! For me personally, not having to worry about the headaches associated with owning a car (parking, maintenance, etc..) is huge. But I should mention I am one of those who prefer to e-bike :)

[@slowercuber7767]

Informally informed supposition: The 15K to 30K USD cybercab purchase price will include FSD, but you might still have to pay an access fee with Tesla or some other fleet operator to give you access to customer calls if you wish to make money with it. I suspect there will be Tesla or third party "charging pads" you could buy (I'd expect the price to be around $1000 USD, though that is a total guess) that you could plug into 240V or maybe even 120V outlets at home. I guess what I'm saying is that I expect you could have your own dedicated cab that you and your family/friends could use for local trips without having to subscribe to FSD. Of course if you want to be able to watch Netflix while being toted around, you'll need something like a Premium Connectivity subscription.

[@breyrey7612]

Rumors has it at 10% cut if you want to join the fleet.

[@taefravis]

Thee is no evidence anywhere that each cab comes with FSD without any subscription needed.

[@slowercuber7767]

@ I said I was informally informed. Supposition. Words spoken by a Tesla employee, not necessarily a highly placed one, who said something to the effect that since FSD was required in order to use the cybercab at all that of course it would be included. This was NOT an official statement, it was a verbal comment only. Other than it being a very sensible policy, which seems in keeping with Tesla’s push towards rational simplicity, there is no real evidence of a promise that it will be done that way, either initially or long term. Another of Tesla’s prime characteristics is flexibility, so it might actually have been the plan when it was spoken, and it could change. But it seems to me the likely path for Tesla, so I shared it.

[@CiaranMcHale]

Some of the analysis/speculation in this video seems to incorrect. Elon has stated that S3XY cars will be used for the robotaxi fleet initially, and the Cybercab will be introduced 6+ months later. As such, trying to use regional availability of wireless charging pads as a way of preventing people deploying robotaxis in not-yet-authorized regions doesn't make sense, because the S3XY robotaxis won't need wireless chargers. In addition, Starlink satellites orbit all around the Earth, but they are capable of turning off service when they are currently above a country that does not (yet) permit Starlink to operate. In a similar way, it should be straightforward for Tesla to disable robotaxi/unsupervised-FSD capability in regions where laws do not permit such capability. In summary, trying to use regional availability of wireless chargers to limit robotaxis to just those regions is neither sufficient nor required.

[@taefravis]

It wont be 25cents a mile, tesla dont need to have that low a price. They only need to go 50c a mile lower than the competition. At the start they will be low numbers of robotaxis so wait times may be similar to waymo. But earning that extra will fund more cars on the road.

There will be some people who will not want to rent their Cybercab out, and these people will want an induction charger at their home.

Tactical charging, as you call it, is already done. Also my original comment was about bidirectional charging although I stated it as an ability to support the grid. So yes, one could lump charging at home during off peak periods, and even using charging stations at off peak times, as supporting the grid. And again this is not new or innovative technology. Current Tesla's show you where charging stations are and even how many are available and whether or not they are busy. You can even tell whether his peak or off peak by the rate they charge you for your electricity. To reiterate, induction charging is here and available. Bidirectional induction charging is not, as far as I know, a mature technology that would be at all useful.Therefore it falls into my category as speculation which is worthless.
