I tried to calculate this a few months ago and the result was $0.7 with room for improvement over time.
I had $0.25/mi for vehicles, 0.14 for labor costs (remote and road-side assistance, charging, cleaning, management, etc.), 0.05 electricity, 0.05 for buildings and parking lots, 0.025 vehicle maintenance and insurance. That's 0.52 in total. Assuming 75% miles are paid, the cost per paid mile is $0.7.
I can imagine significant economies of scale, e.g. 20% cost reduction for each doubling of deployment, so maybe $0.1 after a few decades?
