Tesla sells autonomous taxis. The Cybercab costs $29,990 plus a $299/month subscription. Even Musk (!) is unhappy.

Selected American recipients receive an invitation to order a Tesla Cybercab, a private-use Robotaxi. The base price is $29,990, equivalent to 119,500 złoty net. In addition, the buyer will need to insure the vehicle themselves and pay a monthly subscription fee of $299, equivalent to 1,190 złoty net, a cost that even Elon Musk finds somewhat excessive. He believes the fee should be around $115 per month, equivalent to 458 złoty net.

Tesla Cybercab: Price, Terms, Other Interesting Facts

The price of the Cybercab is 3/4 of the Tesla Model Y RWD price, which would amount to 142,480 Polish zlotys in Poland. The vehicle is available only in five cities in Texas and is accessible solely by invitation, but it is set to be sold across the United States once regulators give approval. Delivery is estimated to occur in a few weeks, by December 2026. When purchasing the car, we receive only a very expensive paper button, as we cannot drive it without a steering wheel and pedals. This is why there is an additional monthly subscription fee of $299 for FSD Unsupervised, the electronic driver.

Cybercab will transport the owner within the area covered by the Robotaxi service, though this area is not guaranteed. Tesla may reduce or expand it independently of the Robotaxi service. The vehicle is available solely for private use. As part of the subscription, we receive primarily software along with communication services, as well as remote support, free towing up to 80 kilometers, replacement of a punctured tire or windshield, cleaning of cameras, and checking of cabin filters and wipers.

We don’t receive insurance, free charging, parking, or registration – the owner will have to pay for these separately. The biggest issue at the moment is the lack of insurance, as there is no such product available on the market for individuals. Cybercab can automatically access the service center for repairs and will also return there on its own. The car cannot be covered with stickers, its windows cannot be tinted, and the wheels cannot be changed unless using Tesla or a company designated by Tesla.

Three warnings regarding improper or dangerous use will result in the owner losing access to autonomous driving for a week (in other words: turning Cybercab into a paper button). No refund for the subscription will be given.
