How it works
Two audiences, two stages each. One geospatial engine underneath both.
Which city, which corridor, which parcel, and how many vehicles it can charge
Charge rotation, utilization, site profit and loss
Where capacity exists near the demand they serve
Which city takes the next block of vehicles
Capacity methodology
Nothing hidden. This is the whole chain.
nameplate_kVA = amps × volts × 1.732 ÷ 1000 after_pf_kW = nameplate_kVA × power_factor after_derate_kW = after_pf_kW × 0.80 NEC 210.20 continuous load available_kW = after_derate_kW − facility_load_kW daily_budget_kWh = available_kW × charging_window_hours kWh_at_battery = miles_per_day × Wh_per_mile ÷ 1000 kWh_from_meter = kWh_at_battery ÷ charge_efficiency vehicle_ceiling = daily_budget_kWh ÷ kWh_from_meter
| VehicleTraceable | Wh per mile | Charge efficiency | Usable pack |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cybercab certified | 165 | 0.899 | 47.6 kWh |
| Cybercab duty cycle | 210 | 0.899 | 47.6 kWh |
| Used Model Y | 286 | 0.909 | 75 kWh |
Reference case: 800 A, 480 V, power factor 0.90, 80 kW facility load, a 20 h window and 279 miles a day returns 398.9 kW, 7,977 kWh, 156 Cybercabs and 91 used Model Ys.
Run a capacity checkOperator model assumptions
The fleet calculator starts from these defaults. Every one is editable on the page. None of them is confirmed.
| AssumptionEstimate | Default |
|---|---|
| Fare per paid mile | $1.80 |
| Platform take | 25% |
| Energy, tires, maintenance per mile | $0.12 |
| Insurance per month | $500 |
| Depot space per month | $500 |
| Lease | $3,000 down, $850 a month, 36 months |
| Purchase price | $30,000 |
| Paid miles a day | 120 |
| Days per month | 30.4 |
Fare and platform take are set by the network operator and have not been published. Financing terms have not been announced. No Cybercab has yet been delivered to an independent operator, so there are no operator results to report. The model is hypothetical. Results will vary and may include losses.
Open the fleet calculatorWhat we do not claim
- We do not control Tesla dispatch.
- We do not route rides.
- We do not own vehicles.
- We do not promise earnings. The fleet calculator models the assumptions you enter. It is not a forecast of any operator's results.
