Tesla Turns Steering Into a $99/Month Service

TL;DR Summary
Tesla will require a $99-per-month subscription to enable Autopilot’s lane-keeping and steering, with Full Self-Driving also moving to a subscription model after an $8,000 one-time option ends on Feb. 14. The move aligns with a broader push for recurring revenue amid regulatory scrutiny and ongoing lawsuits over driver-assist claims, while regulators consider actions that could impact Tesla’s California sales.
