Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO, Elon Musk announced on Twitter Sunday that the electric vehicle company would be increasing the price of its full self-driving program by 25%. The price will increase to $15,000 from $12,000 on Sept. 5, Musk said in a tweet.
“After wide release of FSD Beta 10.69.2, price of FSD will rise to $15k in North America on September 5th. Current price will be honored for orders made before Sept 5th, but delivered later” — Elon Musk.
FSD Beta users are supposed to obtain a high “Safety Score” from Tesla to get and maintain access to the system. However, Tesla is planning to make FSD Beta even more mainstream.
At the Tesla 2022 Annual Shareholder Meeting on August 4, Musk said that FSD Beta will be available to anyone who requests it by the end of this year.
A transcript of the Tesla meeting said, “We’re still tracking very much to have widespread deployment of FSD Beta this year in North America. So I should say basically, FSD will be available to anyone who requests it by the end of this year.”
