Tesla is inviting select customers to buy a Cybercab for personal use at $29,990, with a $299-a-month Autonomy Subscription required to operate it

Tesla's order page shows an estimated December 2026 delivery in Austin, Texas. The car only works in supported service areas, and nothing in the announcement mentions Canada.

In a post on X at 6:27 p.m. Eastern on November 13, 2026, Tesla's official Robotaxi account wrote: "Select customers are now being invited to purchase Cybercab for personal use." The screenshots it posted put the two-seater at $29,990 before taxes, with a $299-a-month Autonomy Subscription that Tesla says is required to operate it.

What did Tesla announce?

At 6:27 p.m. Eastern on November 13, Tesla's Robotaxi account posted: "Select customers are now being invited to purchase Cybercab for personal use" (Robotaxi on X). It attached a screenshot of a Cybercab order page and, in a follow-up post, two images from the invitation itself (Robotaxi on X). Tesla's main account quoted the announcement 20 minutes later with a cowboy emoji (Tesla on X), and Elon Musk reposted it.

Tesla Robotaxi: "Select customers are now being invited to purchase Cybercab for personal use."

What does it cost?

The order page Tesla posted shows:

  • Cybercab: $29,990, "Excludes Taxes"
  • Autonomy Subscription: $299 a month, pre-selected, "One month included with purchase." The fine print says "Price shown excludes taxes and is billed separately each month until canceled"
  • Due today: $1,000, a "Non-Refundable Order Deposit"
  • Est. delivery: December 2026, delivery in Austin, Texas

The page also says "Subscription and regular vehicle maintenance required to operate" (Robotaxi on X). By our math, at $299 a month with the first month included, the subscription would add $3,289 in the first year and $3,588 a year after that, at today's price. Tesla's screenshot doesn't name a currency; the delivery location is Austin.

What do buyers get?

Tesla's invitation describes the Cybercab as "fully autonomous" and says owners can "monitor your vehicle and manage your ride in the app." It lists a two-seat cabin with "fully adjustable seating," wraparound ambient lighting and "an extra-large 21" center touchscreen," plus 20.1 cubic feet of storage. It says "initial availability is limited," and its footnote reads: "Only available in supported service areas. Subscription required for operation. Terms apply" (Robotaxi on X).

What didn't Tesla say?

Tesla didn't say how many customers are being invited or how they're chosen, which service areas count as supported, whether the $299 subscription price could change, or when, if ever, orders open to everyone. We're not filling those gaps with outside reports. For background, see our stories on Robotaxi going 24/7 and Tesla freeing up Giga Texas for more Cybercab output.

What about Canada?

Nothing in Tesla's posts mentions Canada, and there's no Canadian price or order page in the announcement. Tesla hasn't announced Robotaxi service in Canada. What Canadians can buy is FSD (Supervised), which Tesla says requires "active driver supervision" and does "not make the vehicle autonomous" (Tesla Canada). Tesla says the Cybercab is only available in supported service areas and needs the subscription to operate, and Tesla hasn't named any supported area in Canada. See our FSD in Canada guide for where things stand.
