You don’t understand. It’s not like the self-driving feature is just software where they can price it at whatever they want. It’s physically consuming brain cells every month. And those aren’t free you know!

Especially when you realize how bad, unfinished, and dangerous it is. You’re literally paying to be a crash test dummy / AI trainer for them. They should pay YOU.

For my region it’s one time fee 9k $ “only”.
It is hilarious given the fact you can’t legally use it so it turns into better break asistent 😅

They should make a discount for every person the self driving software hits. That shit would be basically free.

That’s just the new subscription cost. It is meant a san alternative to the full purchase cost.

As functionality has been added, the price has increased over the years, the current price is $12,000 for the FSD upgrade over basic Autopilot.

The subscription also lets you try it out and cancel if you don’t want it instead of having to make the decision up front for thousands of dollars.
