> Most people think they pay $0 to garage their car, for instance, since the cost was rolled into the price of their house purchase and mostly invisible. But it isn't $0 to a business. And on the other hand, each Waymo parking spot is probably a lot cheaper per unit time than 250 square feet inside a house in a residential area. And presumably they need a lot less than 1 parking spot per car. > Here's one attempt at costs for Waymo that finds it costs them about $60,000 a year to operate a single car. Doesn't that sound cheap? If a car can average 10 rides per day, that's $16 per ride. | ||
