Not sure what you mean by "out"?

FSD, as sold since ~march 2019, has been out and fully delivered with all promised features to customers for quite a while now in North America (since that time the features promised to buyers were level 2 including city navigation-- which I use daily in my Tesla and works great).

The last promised feature- driving on city streets, was released to beta users in 2020, a year later in 2021 it became widely available to those with safe driving records, a year after that it was available to anybody at all who wanted it, and a year after that they removed the beta label.



There's a tiny fraction of owners who bought a version of the product that promised more than that- there's not a ton of them, but they might be getting that soon as Tesla plans to debut driverless vehicles on public roads in June of this year starting in Texas.
Right, Musk promised 1mm robotaxi in 2020 none of them are available 5 years later.
There is a Tesla owner in Great Britain won $10k settlement over Tesla false FSD claim
https://electrek.co/2023/11/07/te...ng-claims/
There is a Tesla owner in California was allowed to pursue negligence and fraud based FSD claim as well
https://www.reuters.com/legal/tes...024-05-15/
Must because Tesla was hiring remote control operators for so call driverless vehicles
https://www.reddit.com/r/electric..._remotely/
BTW, Tesla for some reasons doesn't call it FSD in China, wondering why? it's intelligent assistance driving

Why you always come to EV treads to post false info?

There you go again, citing Electrek, which is not a reputable source. They are trying to win a defamation case against Tesla. I used to love Electrek, but now I no longer read them because all their articles are clearly attacking Tesla.

Taking a step back, you're missing the point. The timeline does not matter.

The approach chosen by Tesla, to solve self driving, is what matters. That approach, which is a generalized AI approach, using only cameras, is the correct approach.

Remind me how many years it took for FSD to come out? OH, it still isn't out.

You think any commercial number of robots will be ready soon for mass market? No.
How much that goes into it comes from China because according to Grok 40% of the EV battery components are sourced from China.
FSD Supervised has been active and working for about a year or so. And it's farking amazing tbh.

My last car was a Tesla, my current car is a Tesla, and my next car will be a Tesla.

Don't see myself driving anything else, they're that fun to drive with practically zero maintenance.

...The best option is a two year old model at $25K is get the $4K used credit.
In general the people who can afford to purchase a used EV at $25k don't qualify for the credit. The people that do qualify, more than likely can't charge at home as they are renters, usually in an apartment. if the majority of charging is paid for, its not worth it over the equivalent ICE vehicle.

Wow the mods are riding this thread like a cat on a velociraptor.

Anyway, I say if you are looking at buying a used Tesla with HW3, just don't. You need HW4 to get the best of FSD. If all you want is a nice electric car and don't care about FSD then look at Kia/Hyundai before a 25k Tesla.

When automobiles were first introduced, people riding bullock carts and horses called them a fad. When airplanes came along, many mocked the idea of flying. Now, by June this year, Austin will have two autonomous car lines - Waymo and Tesla.
