Elon Musk announced that they have increased the Full Self-Driving service developed by Tesla. The current price, which is $12,000 with a 20 percent price increase, has been criticized by many.
The Full Self-Driving service has misleading naming. Full Self-Driving, which has a Level 2 driver support system, unfortunately does not have a fully autonomous driving feature. However, vehicles with fully autonomous driving are not available for sale yet.
Tesla raises 20 percent to its Full Self-Driving service
The Full Self-Driving service, which came to the fore with a raise for the second time since 2020, increased from $ 8,000 to $ 10,000 in November 2020. Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced that the Full Self-Driving service will be $ 12,000 from January 17, with his tweet today.
Users who purchase the Full Self-Driving service are offered features such as automatic lane change, automatic parking and steering assistance on some highways. The service, which is described as the autopilot driver assistance package, will be updated when fully autonomous systems become legal and gain autonomous driving capability.
Criticized about the price policy of the developed technology, Musk stated that the price of the Full Self-Driving service will be increased again. Underlining that they are improving and constantly updating the driving support system day by day, Musk announced that they continue to work for fully autonomous driving.
Tesla Full Self-Driving technology has a system that requires users to touch the steering wheel at regular intervals. Drivers who do not want to intervene can easily deceive the mechanism developed by the company. Among the criticisms that Tesla received about the driving support system is that the control mechanism can be fooled.
