Zara’s Tesla ride cost $5.80, while Rya reeled when her Waymo clocked in at $20.36.
The biggest difference between Waymo and Tesla, apart from the fact that one has a safety driver, is the zone of operation. Tesla boasts a map that encompasses parts of Marin, the East Bay (yes, it can go on bridges), and all the way down to San Jose, and unlike Waymo, it hits the freeways.
Waymo, a company with driverless ride-share services in five U.S. cities, is expanding to Dallas and plans to launch its service in 2026.

There was no payment setup required, as I already have a Tesla app for my car with a credit card and ID uploaded. There was a feedback page, and I rated the ride 5 lightning bolts. It had a tip page, but when you click, it tells you this is a joke. There are no human drivers, so no tips are required.
The ride cost less than $6. I'd say an Uber to the same destination would be roughly $10 usually.
