This graph takes additional operational and overhead costs into account (specifically relevant for Tesla, Uber, and Public Transportation). Interesting side note: Public transportation in America is a major money-losing venture. Costs exceed revenues by a factor of 5.

@kerooke do we know if this cost considers vehicle depreciation, maintenance, and computing costs or solely the associated energy costs? -
For both 'Tesla Robotaxi' and 'Owned Gas Cars', depreciation, maintenance, and computing costs are considered. For Uber, operational expenses are considered at 90% of total company OpEx (Uber Eats does ~10% of revenue). For public transportation, all funding is included.
