Tesla makes FSD a subscription, sparking mixed reactions from owners

Tesla will stop selling FSD as a one-time purchase and will require new buyers to subscribe for $99 per month after February 14. Three owners offered mixed views—from safety concerns and reluctance to pay a recurring fee to enthusiasm for the ongoing tech and hopes prices may eventually drop. Analysts say the move signals growing confidence in FSD, but prices could rise and bundles or license transfers for existing buyers may emerge as the program evolves.
