Tesla Removes Standard Autopilot From Model 3 and Model Y, Shifts Lane-Centering to $99 FSD

The move comes after a California ruling on deceptive marketing.

Overview

  • New orders in the U.S. and Canada now include only Traffic Aware Cruise Control, with Autosteer no longer listed as standard on Model 3 and Model Y.
  • Full Self-Driving will be subscription-only starting February 14 at $99 per month, and Elon Musk says the price will rise as capabilities improve.
  • Tesla’s configurator no longer uses the “Autopilot” label and shows a 30-day trial of FSD (Supervised) for new buyers.
  • A December decision found Tesla misled consumers about Autopilot and FSD, and California’s DMV granted a 60-day stay with a potential 30-day license suspension if the company fails to comply.
  • The changes apply to new purchases, with reports indicating existing owners keep their features and some inventory listings still show Autopilot.
