I was thinking about the same thing a few months ago, so I wrote a blog post, which then turned into a little calculator. http://martin.drashkov.com/2015/09/how-cheap-can-autonomous-cars-get.html http://martin.drashkov.com/2015/09/how-cheap-can-autonomous-... Paying 15-20 cents per kilometre to ride in an autonomous taxi seems achievable. This means that public transit could become slightly cheaper and self-sustaining. At this rate, it also means people will likely be travelling a lot more, so maybe the price will go up again because of congestion charges.
