Tesla Opens Cybercab Orders for Personal Use at $29,990
Tesla has opened Cybercab orders for selected customers at $29,990, alongside a $299 monthly autonomy subscription. CEO Elon Musk noted the subscription price may drop as regulatory approvals expand across the US.
Tesla has announced that selected customers can now purchase the Cybercab for personal use, marking a significant step toward delivering vehicles designed exclusively for full self-driving. The company shared the announcement on the X platform alongside an image of the gold-colored vehicle, which features two seats and butterfly doors. The Cybercab is priced at $29,990, accompanied by an Autonomy Subscription costing $299 per month.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk wrote on X that the offer will roll out across the United States as the company secures the necessary regulatory approvals. However, Musk expressed reservations regarding the published subscription fee, stating that the monthly charge is too high. According to Musk, the price should align with the combined cost of Tesla's Full Self Driving system and connectivity services in other models, which totals approximately $115 per month.
Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla aims to begin public sales of the autonomous Cybercab by the end of the year, as stated last month by Lars Moravy, Tesla's Vice President of Vehicle Engineering. Ashok Elluswamy, Head of Artificial Intelligence at Tesla, noted in a separate post on X that the Cybercab will operate without human supervision across all geographic areas where the company's autonomous robotaxis currently operate.
The Cybercab was first unveiled in October 2024 as a two-seater autonomous electric vehicle lacking a steering wheel and pedals, designed to transport passengers using cameras and artificial intelligence systems. Tesla launched its robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, in June 2025, initially utilizing Model Y vehicles, before expanding the service to Dallas and Houston in April 2026, and to Miami in July. In September 2026, the company began integrating the Cybercab into the Austin service within designated city areas.
