Every assumption is yours to change. The defaults follow the published model, and nothing here is a forecast. Fare and platform take are set by the network operator, not by you.

Hypothetical model.Estimate These figures come from the assumptions you set, not from any operator's results. No Cybercab has yet been delivered to an independent operator. Fares, platform take rate, financing and insurance are set by Tesla and third parties and are not final. Actual results will vary and may include losses. This is not an offer, a forecast, or investment advice.

Break-even is the utilization where the fares you keep cover every fixed line: vehicle, insurance and depot. Below it, the modeled car loses money every month.

Cumulative net cash, first 36 months

Starts negative by the amount you put in, then follows your inputs. Crossing zero is the modeled payback month.

Net cash by year

Each bar is that year alone, not a running total. Modeled on your inputs.
