Fox News
Tesla is increasing the price of its Full Self-Driving feature to $12,000 on January 17, Elon Musk has announced. The system remains in development in beta.
The feature offers limited semi-automated driving features and its name has been called "misleading" and "irresponsible" by National Transportation and Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy.
Certain Tesla owners with cars that have the feature activated are also granted access to a beta testing program that unlocks additional capability, but still requires active driver participation when it is activated.
The price of Full Self-Driving (FSD) was last raised from $8,000 to $10,000 in October 2022, and Musk has said it will continue to go up its capabilities are increased, a point he reiterated with the recent announcement, saying, "FSD price will rise as we get closer to FSD production code release."
