Tesla is increasing the price of its Full Self-Driving software to $15,000 | Engadget
For the second time this year, Tesla is increasing the price of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature..

And it'll still be ready 'within the next year'2000, 5000, 8000, 10000, 12000, 15000…..
By end of this decade, that FSD software will cost more than Toyota Camry.
I would think if they made it $3k they would get at least 10x the take rate vs. $15k pricing. It’s software so deploying to 1M cars vs 100k carries only incremental additional cost. I would think that approach would be better financially.It was 6K when I bought it and I thought it was iffy on value at that point. I’m in the beta and while it impressive software, I don’t think I could pay 12k for it. I don’t think the prices will stick.
Yes but no way is the take rate going to be anything close to 50% at $15k. Maybe 5%…10% at best.Goldman Sachs has lowered its Tesla delivery estimate for the full year of 2022 to 1.401 million units, which is still very close to Tesla's rough guideline of roughly 50% increase year-over-year.
Assuming 1/2 of them are buying FSD and the anemic 2022 number due to China locked down is replicated conservatively in 2023.
1.401M x 50% x $15,000 = $10,507,500,000
That’s enough $ to build 2.x new Gigafactories for just software price alone. And Elon wants to build 10+ Gigafactories to have 20M annual production by 2030 goal. #monster
maybe Elon is overestimating their popularity.Yes but no way is the take rate going to be anything close to 50% at $15k. Maybe 5%…10% at best.
Cut the price to $3 or $4k then I could possibly see 50% take rate.
The humanity is living under Elon’s world.Emperor Elon strikes again
What is the likelihood that Lucid will be rolling out DreamDrive Pro this year? I am at a point where I have to make a decision whether or not to keep the Lucid GT reservation. Is the car still worth getting with the current half-baked autonomous software?Sadly though, people keep falling for it! The guy is a liar and how a class action hasn’t come up regarding this is astounding.
Maybe we’ll be eating our words if DreamDrive Pro doesn’t get enabled this year
Half baked? If you don’t understand or can’t get onboard with the journey, cancel your reservation. Some people are better off paying more and losing the tax credit in favor of more complete software.What is the likelihood that Lucid will be rolling out DreamDrive Pro this year?

i am came here to seek understanding. You stating something about not understanding the journey implies you know what the journey is but are unwilling to share. Please do. I am all ears!Half baked?
