When Uber 1st started, rides cost a fraction of a taxi. It was cool and novel (cars where all professional chauffeured nice rides). It grew for sure, but it didn't supplant personal vehicles or transit (it's had 15-years).
Why would "autonomous Ubers" with limited seating?
Cybercab will do a majority of all passenger miles in any jurisdiction where it is not prohibited by law.
Obvious to anyone with eyes and a brain.

Vehicle ownership is a signature of freedom.
It’s what allows us to go wherever we want, whenever we want, however we want, and with whoever we want.
That’s what I think Tesla is missing with its Cybercab vision.
Autonomous driving is an incredible technology, but the freedom to not drive should never come at the expense of the freedom to own.
I don’t want to depend on a fleet, an app, or a company to decide when and where I can go.
The future of transportation should give us MORE freedom, not less.
Self-driving cars? Absolutely. A future without personal vehicle ownership? No thanks.

Thirty years ago, GM proved an electric future was possible with the EV1. Today, one of the vehicles that started it all, the 1994 Impact concept, is on display at EPCOT's Test Track until mid-December.
ALT To celebrate this 30th anniversary and share a rich history with the public, GM has brought one of its earliest electric milestones to the Test Track presented by General Motors at EPCOT, the 1994 Impact concept. From now through mid-December 2026, guests have a rare, up-close look at the breakthrough 1990s technology that sparked the automaker's journey toward an electric future. Serving as the display's centerpiece, the Impact proved an electric future was possible. As one of the first modern, purpose-built electric vehicles from a major automaker, the Impact was a critical learning tool that shaped the final production version of the EV1.

Ford analyzed 36,000+ 2021 Mustang Mach-Es after 5 years and 2 billion electric miles.
Average battery health: 92%.
95% of vehicles retained between 87% and 97% battery health.
EV batteries are aging a lot better than many critics predicted.
