Tesla invites select customers to buy personal Cybercabs with conditions
Tesla is offering select customers the chance to purchase a Cybercab for personal use, but buyers face a mandatory monthly subscription and strict limitations.
Tesla has started inviting select customers to purchase its steering-wheel-free Cybercab for personal use, priced at a $29,990 sticker price alongside a mandatory $299-a-month Autonomy Subscription. Buyers must also put down a $1,000 non-refundable deposit and live in a supported service area where Tesla currently operates its Robotaxi service. However, the fine print comes with significant restrictions. The order terms explicitly prohibit owners from using the vehicle for commercial purposes, meaning buyers cannot put it on Tesla's network or use it for ridesharing. Additionally, because the vehicle lacks a manual steering wheel or controls, canceling the monthly subscription renders the Cybercab completely unusable on public roads.
