Tesla Clarifies FSD Ownership Rules: A Subscription Model and Confusion Resolved
With the February 14 deadline for purchasing Full Self-Driving (FSD) approaching, Tesla has addressed some confusion regarding the ownership of this advanced driver-assistance system. Initially, an email sent to customers stated that FSD would remain with the car only as long as the owner held the vehicle, which caused some uncertainty.
However, a recent clarification email from Tesla confirms that FSD will indeed stay with the car, regardless of ownership changes. This means that even if a Tesla owner sells their car to a third party, the new buyer will still have access to FSD. This clarification brings certainty to potential buyers, ensuring they know the value of their purchase will be preserved.
The email also highlights a significant change: FSD will transition to a subscription-only model on February 14. Owners will be able to access FSD for just $99 per month, a potentially cost-effective way to enjoy the benefits of this advanced technology. However, CEO Elon Musk has warned that subscription fees may increase as more features are added, which could impact the overall cost for users.
FSD is a groundbreaking feature with numerous benefits. Tesla claims it enhances road safety by over 80%, preventing nearly 2 million potential injuries annually. The system has even been credited with saving lives, such as guiding a driver to the hospital during a heart attack. Moreover, FSD has demonstrated its capabilities in hands-free coast-to-coast drives across the United States.
