XNA-1Depot membership · Northwest Arkansas

Hand over the keys. Walk away. It charges itself clean.

A yard built for an autonomous fleet has power, a canopy, a lift and people who work on these cars all day. Your Tesla can use all of it. An attendant plugs it in, moves it off the charger the moment it is full so you never see an idle fee, and does the things a filling station used to do without being asked — tyres, fluids, glass, the screen wiped down.

Level 2 while the car sits, DC when you are in a hurry. Every Tesla except the Cybercab has an onboard AC charger, and building around that is most of why these prices are what they are. Member sign-in →

Nothing is operating yet.

There is no depot, no charger and no membership to buy. This page exists to find out how many people here want one, because that number is part of what decides whether the building goes up. Joining the list costs nothing and there is no deposit — for this or anything else on this site.

01 — The 3 memberships

Priced where the electricity and the labour both fit.

Each tier includes an allowance in kilowatt-hours rather than the word “unlimited”, and we print what that allowance costs us. A flat fee with uncapped charging selects for the heaviest users and quietly becomes a price rise for everyone else six months later.

Commuter$149per vehicle, per month

For the car that does the school run and the drive to Bentonville. About 900 miles of charging a month, and it leaves cleaner than it arrived.

Valet charging — hand it over, walk away. We plug it in, watch it, and move it off the charger the moment it is done, so you never pay an idle fee or hunt for a free stall.
250 kWh a month included. Beyond that, energy at cost plus 15% — the same rule the fleet gets, printed on your statement.
The full-service check every visit: tyre pressures set for range, tread looked at, washer fluid, wiper blades, and every piece of glass cleaned inside and out.
Rain-repellent glass treatment each season, and tyre dressing when it needs it.
Tyres, blades and filters fitted at cost plus 15%, by people who work on these cars all day.

250 kWh is about 900 miles in a Model Y, and costs us about $35 at 14.1¢ a kilowatt-hour. The rest of your fee is the person who meets the car.

Executive$299per vehicle, per month

For somebody who charges here most weeks, works while it happens, and would rather the car were dealt with entirely.

Everything in Commuter, plus 500 kWh a month included.
Two express interior details a month — mats out and vacuumed, trash cleared, screen and trim wiped with electronics-safe cloths.
Cabin filter swapped on schedule, part at cost plus 15%, fitting included.
Priority lane at the busy hours, and a stall held for you on the holiday weekends when everyone charges at once.

Phase two — drawn, not built

A desk, a door that shuts, and Wi-Fi that holds a call.
Barista coffee rather than a machine in a corridor.

500 kWh is about 1,800 miles in a Model Y, and costs us about $71 at 14.1¢ a kilowatt-hour. The rest of your fee is the person who meets the car.

Driver$399per vehicle, per month

For the car that works for a living — rideshare, delivery, a long commute from out of county. High mileage, no plug at home, and no time to sit at a public charger paying retail.

900 kWh a month included — roughly 3,200 miles in a Model Y. At public fast-charging rates that alone is more than this membership costs.
Level 2 while you sleep, DC when you are between fares. The first is what makes this price possible; the second is what makes it workable on a Friday night.
A weekly clean that assumes passengers have been in the car: interior wiped, mats out, glass done inside and out.
Tyres watched properly. A car doing 3,000 miles a month wears a set in months, not years, and fitting is included when you buy them here at cost plus 15%.
Beyond the allowance, energy at cost plus 15% — the same rule everyone else gets, on the same statement.

900 kWh is about 3,200 miles in a Model Y, and costs us about $127 at 14.1¢ a kilowatt-hour. The rest of your fee is the person who meets the car.

Pit Stop · no membership$25

No membership. Buy a coffee, and while you drink it someone cleans the glass, sets the tyre pressures, dresses the tyres and wipes the touchscreen. Charging billed by the kilowatt-hour at the posted rate.

02 — Why these numbers and not lower ones

The first draft of this page said $50 with unlimited charging.

It is worth saying what happened to it, because the same offer is being advertised elsewhere and it does not work anywhere.

What $50 buys in electricity

About 350 kWh at 14.1¢ a kilowatt-hour — roughly 1,250 miles a month in a Model Y, against a US average near 1,100. The median member would spend nearly the whole fee before anyone touched the car, and an unlimited plan is chosen disproportionately by people with no plug at home.

What is not in that rate

14.12¢ is the residential average our cost model runs on, and it assumes a single Level 2 charger. A bank of DC chargers is a commercial demand tariff, where peak kilowatts can cost more than the energy. Until the utility quotes this building, that rate is the floor of what power costs, not the whole of it.

What the lounge costs before it sells a cup

About 1,200 square feet, fit-out and somebody actually standing there comes to roughly $69,000 a year — near enough 47 coffees a day just to stand still. That is a coffee shop, and it gets opened as one, when the member book pays for the room. Which is why it is marked phase two above instead of sold today.

If the utility quote lands worse than the model assumes, the number here changes before anyone is asked to pay anything — rather than being honoured and taken out of the service.

03 — What this is not

The limits, on the record.

We are not a Tesla service centre and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or speaking for Tesla. Anything under warranty, and anything touching the battery, drive unit or software, belongs to Tesla — we will say so rather than open it.
No body work, no paint, no glass replacement, no collision repair.
No roadside recovery or towing. For a car that will not move, that is Tesla Roadside Assistance.
The lounge, the work pods and the pet run are phase two. They are drawn, not built, and nothing above is priced as though they exist.
A Cybercab or a managed fleet is not a membership. Those go on the depot plan — a dedicated stall, a daily cleaning cycle and 24-hour intake — which is a different product at a different price.
No deposit, no contract, no sign-up fee. Monthly, cancel whenever you like.

Running a Cybercab or any car commercially? That is the depot plan — $549 to $899 a month per vehicle with a daily cleaning cycle included, or $125 a month to store one that does not run. It is on the stalls page, priced for a car that works for a living.

04 — Join the list

Memberships open when the depot has power. Not before.

Tell us you would want one, and which tier. Unlike almost everything else on this site, this part does not wait on a manufacturer choosing a market — it waits on a building, and the list is what gets the building financed.

Or write to robotaxinwa@gmail.com — particularly if you run more than a couple of cars, or if you have somewhere in the region that power and a canopy could go.
