Robotaxi is the feature and yes all current teslas can be robotaxis

Cybercab is a 2 door coupe that's going to release for 30k or lower

Are they selling the cyber cab to the general public? And you are able to collect cash for time it spends operating? How would that even work, you would be using FSD and a Tesla ride hailing app but you would get the money? What about liability if it crashes?

He’s got plenty of time to work out the details before they’re ready in 2030.

For now, all this is just designed to sell one thing: stock.

2030, lol. Semi and Roadster 2.0 were announced 7 years ago. No way the taxi exists by 2030

Cybercab or better yet the cyber coupe will be 30k or less. Release is 2027 or earlier

I assume you'll be able to make money basically renting it out as a taxi. No details on that so far. From competition like waymo, it would be cheaper than uber or lyft. Prolly safer as you don't deal with the occasional bad driver.

From how I understand it, it will be unsupervised full self driving. It will likely be exclusive to specific cities on release tho so keep that in mind. No details beyong it coming out with the cybercab

Nothing on liability. I'll assume that you would be required to carry full tesla insurance to use the feature on your own tesla. I think that's more up to the state laws tho

2027… just like it was going to be released in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024

Just like there were going to be manned SpaceX missions to mars in 2024.

How do people still actually fall for these ridiculous promises?

3 years in Musk speak is at least a decade.

Also is this the cheap car Elon was talking about for a while?

Would be reall bad if it is.
