Tesla opens Cybercab pre-orders âÂÂfor personal use,â with geo restrictions and a $299 monthly fee
Tesla said on Friday evening that âÂÂselect customersâ now have the opportunity to pre-order the companyâÂÂs autonomous, golden Cybercab âÂÂfor personal use.âÂÂ
More details became clear as those select customers looked at the order page. Tech reviewer Marques Brownlee posted that buyers âÂÂmust accept deliveryâ in one of a handful of Texas cities and that the Cybercab will only operate in certain geofenced areas. The estimated delivery date is December 2026.
In addition to the $29,990 price tag, Cybercab owners will need to pay $299 per month to operate their vehicle.
In response to BrownleeâÂÂs post, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the Cybercab âÂÂwill be available nationwide, as we receive regulatory approval.â He added that the monthly fee is âÂÂtoo highâÂÂ: âÂÂShould match the cost of Tesla [Full Self-Driving] and connectivity for other models, which is more like ~$115/month.âÂÂ
TeslaâÂÂs Ashok Elluswamy offered more information about the geofencing, saying that Cybercab will work âÂÂunsupervised inside all the same geo locations as @robotaxi, just serving the ownersâ needs.âÂÂ
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.
