Gerber reports Tesla will sell Cybercabs to fleet managers and take a 20-30% cut. That lowers Tesla's capital and operational exposure but gives up recurring ride revenue, so the story does not change Tesla's outlook.
Ross Gerber said Tesla will sell Cybercabs to "fleet managers" and take a 20-30% cut. He also said Tesla gives up recurring ride revenue but avoids heavy capital and operational costs. Those two facts pull in opposite directions, so the story does not change Tesla's outlook.
