Tesla starts removing outright Full Self-Driving purchase option at time of order
"Tesla has chosen to axe the ability to purchase Full Self-Driving outright from a select group of cars just days after CEO Elon Musk announced the company had plans to eliminate that option in February. The company is making a clear-cut stand that it will f ully transition away from the ability to purchase the Full Self-Driving suite outright, a move that has brought differing opinions throughout the Tesla community. Earlier this week, the company also announced that it will no longer allow buyers to purchase Full Self-Driving outright when ordering a pre-owned vehicle from inventory."
"This is a major move because it is the first time Tesla is eliminating the ability to purchase FSD outright for one flat fee to any of its vehicles, at least at the time of purchase. It is trying to phase out the outright purchase option as much as it can, preparing people for the subscription-based service it will exclusively offer starting on February 14."
Tesla has removed the option to purchase Full Self-Driving (FSD) outright at the time of order for a select group of vehicles and for pre-owned inventory orders. The $8,000 one-time purchase option at order time has been removed, and buyers are now offered either a $99-per-month subscription or the ability to buy FSD outright after delivery until February 14. Tesla plans to fully transition to subscription-only FSD pricing starting February 14, eliminating flat-fee sales at purchase. The change has sparked debate among owners over long-term costs and access to unsupervised features.
