You won't get rich with a $30,200 robotaxi, you won't even have a viable business. The game is the mass market and there the usual unit of currency is not cents, its tenth of cents.


Even if your robotaxi only manages 2000 rides that’s still down to just 10 cents a ride to cover the cost of hardware.

It’s nothing.


All taxis are variants of mass produced cars, that will not be different for robotaxis. The mass market is the enabler and there every tenth of cent counts.
