As long as they're uber compatible, I think companies will buy them for $130K and treat them like an AirBnB. In some towns taxi drivers are already spending upwards of $360,000 for a taxi medallion, what's a third of that for a car, driver, and dispatcher? Or they become an investment vehicle, like a house, where you own one and send one around as an uber to help pay the bills. I think private individuals will still own their own X's and drive them by hand, but that certainly doesn't negate the market for autonomous taxis.
