The golden two-seater vehicle features butterfly doors and currently requires a $299 monthly autonomy subscription, though Elon Musk suggested lowering that cost to around $115 to match other models. Vice president of vehicle engineering Lars Moravy indicated sales to the public are targeted to start by the end of this year. Unsupervised operation will mirror the footprint of the existing commercial fleet, which previously launched in Austin before expanding to Dallas, Houston, and Miami.
