- Elon Musk said Tesla’s FSD subscription could soon cost more than $100.
- He said the subscription price, currently $99, will rise as the FSD’s capabilities improve.
- He said the price would be worth it, since the driver can sleep or use their phone the whole ride.
Elon Musk said Tesla will raise subscription prices for its Full Self-Driving software as it gets better, and it could cost more than $100.
The Tesla CEO said in an early Friday X post, “I should also mention that the $99/month for supervised FSD will rise as FSD’s capabilities improve.”
“The massive value jump is when you can be on your phone or sleeping for the entire ride (unsupervised FSD),” he said. Tesla’s FSD is an advanced driver assistance system that aims to enable its cars to be fully self-driving.
Currently, customers can buy the system for $8,000 on a one-time basis, per the vehicle’s listing on Tesla’s website. But this option will no longer be available from February 14.
The executive was responding to a post about Tesla killing its Autopilot service in the US. Autopilot comes with safety features and tools, such as Traffic-Aware Cruise Control.
Representatives for Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.
