Who will pay the full, $12,000 price for FSD now? Credit: Tesla

Despite the name, FSD does not actually turn your Tesla into a fully autonomous vehicle, regardless of Tesla CEO Elon Musk's repeated promises that this is happening soon and will tremendously increase the value of the car as it will be possible to put it to work as a robotaxi.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

The pricing reduction is significant, as it now undercuts the full price of the FSD package, which is currently $12,000 (unless you plan to own the car for longer than 10 years). It also comes after Tesla's decision to take every new customer on a test ride designed to show the capabilities of FSD. Musk also recently promised that a "Tesla Robotaxi" will be unveiled in August, though the announcement was short on details.

Musk claimed on several occasions that the value (and price) of FSD will just keep going up over time. For a while, the price part was true, as FSD initially cost just $5,000, before ballooning to $15,000 in Sept. 2022. The fact that the price was lowered to $12,000 in Sept. 2023, together with this most recent reduction, indicates that Tesla is ready to onboard more customers to FSD, but also puts a big dent into the idea that FSD will just keep getting more valuable.
