Sorry, but at the current price of Waymo rides that just can't happen. They become more expensive than leasing a car at something like 8 rides per month (as in, get into a Waymo, expect to pay $60 per ride)

Oh and this price was going up, not down.

Current price no, but future price maybe. There's already a market for it, and a lot of pent up demand.

This justifies wholesale fleet purchases of EVs. A competitor could come in with a cheaper model. There will be a lot of players who want a piece.

Isn't this the same as saying that if cars drop in price 2x the opposite will happen?

> They become more expensive than leasing a car at something like 8 rides per month

Does this include fuel, insurance, repair, parking, registration, maintenance, etc.?
