Key Highlights:
Tesla’s New Promotion: Tesla introduces a one-month free trial of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology to U.S. customers.
CEO Announcement: Elon Musk, Tesla’s CEO, announced the trial offer on the social media platform X, aiming to boost sales and margins amid decreasing demand and competitive pricing pressures.
Product Details and Challenges: Despite being marketed at $12,000, FSD has yet to achieve full autonomy as promised by Musk, facing regulatory and safety scrutiny.
Implementation Strategy: Musk instructed Tesla employees to demonstrate FSD features to new buyers and serviced vehicle owners, emphasizing its capabilities in internal communications.
Consumer Response: The uptake of FSD among Tesla customers has decreased, dropping from 53% in Q3 2019 to 14% in Q3 2022 according to researcher Troy Teslike.
Financial Impact: Aggressive price cuts and declining FSD sales have significantly affected Tesla’s profit margins, with the company also anticipating lower delivery growth for the year due to a focus on new electric vehicle (EV) production.
Analyst Perspective: Industry analysts view the FSD demonstration mandate as one of Musk’s tactics to improve quarterly sales figures and revenues, amidst challenges.
Subscription Option: Tesla also offers FSD as a subscription service for $199 a month, highlighting that the technology requires driver supervision and does not fully automate the vehicle.
