Raise 3,000 US dollars!Tesla North American fully autonomous driving price increase to $ 15,000

Tesla's fully autonomous driving system FSD has again raised its price.

On August 21, local time, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in Twitter that the price of Tesla FSD in North America will increase by 25%. This is the second price increase in this year.

Musk wrote that after the release of the FSD Beta 10.69.2 version of the fully autonomous driving system, the price of FSD in North America will rise to $ 15,000 on September 5. For orders before September 5th, it will be implemented at the current $ 12,000, but the delivery of orders will be later.

However, Musk did not mention the price to increase the price of its FSD subscription, and currently charges $ 199 a month.

As the price rose, Tesla had begun to launch FSD Beta 10.69 to users, which Musk called it "a big step forward."

At present, all Tesla's vehicles are equipped with automatic auxiliary driving system AutoPilot, which has the functions of adaptive cruise and lane maintenance. Above this, the owner can choose FSD to achieve automatic auxiliary auxiliary lanes and vehicle summoning functions. FSD can not be fully autonomous driving on the vehicle, but it must be updated through the continuous wireless software update since then, so FSD has been iterating.

At the Tesla's second quarter financial report on July 20 local time, Musk said that the Tesla autonomous driving test version of FSD Beta has been driving 35 million miles, which is more than the sum of any other company than any other company. Essence

The price of Tesla FSD has been rising. In 2018, its price was $ 5,000. In 2020, the price rose to $ 10,000. Earlier this year Tesla raised the price to $ 12,000.

Tesla China ’s official website shows that“ complete autonomous driving capabilities ”in the Chinese market takes 64,000 yuan. Tesla also said that the function needs to be monitored by the driver, and the vehicle has not yet achieved fully autonomous driving.

It is worth noting that Tesla's automatic auxiliary driving system AutoPilot is investigated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the California Motor Vehicle Administration. Since 2016, NHTSA has investigated 38 collisions involving Tesla Autopilot. The investigation collision accidents killed 19 people. In addition, California Motor Vehicle Management recently accused Tesla's deceitful marketing behavior in its automotive functions and was reviewing Tesla's FSD Beta system.
