Elon Musk Makes Waves with Tesla's New Full Self-Driving Subscription Model
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has announced a significant change in the company's Full Self-Driving (FSD) software distribution. Starting February 14, 2026, FSD will transition to a subscription-only model priced at $99 per month, doing away with the previous option of outright purchases which could cost up to $15,000. This shift, which aligns with Musk's larger strategic goals, aims to drive steady revenue, expedite AI training with extensive data collection, and strengthen Tesla's position in autonomy and ride-hailing services.
