Tesla raises price of Full Self-Driving mode to $10,000 now that it's in beta

Engadget

Elon Musk warned that Tesla would hike the price of Full Self-Driving now that it's in beta, and he's being true to his word. The Verge reports Tesla has raised the cost of the package to $10,000 in the US for both new car buyers and upgrades, up $2,000 from before. And that price isn't guaranteed to stay put -- as usual, Tesla warns that the pricing is "likely to increase" as it rolls out new features. You still need to pay attention and sometimes take the wheel. Instead, it unlocks more semi-autonomous features like Auto Lane Change, Autopark and traffic light stops, on top of more familiar perks like Navigate on Autopilot.


Tesla Raises Price of Autopilot Option by 500

WSJ.com: WSJD - Technology

Tesla Motors Inc. TSLA -0.35 % raised the price of its semi-autonomous Autopilot option by 500, the latest move by the Silicon Valley auto maker to adjust prices and options on its electric vehicles. The move comes the same week that the company made a more capable battery pack available for its Model S sedan and Model X SUV. The new 100 kilowatt-hour batteries will enable the sedan to achieve as much as 315 miles on a charge and significantly increase acceleration times, the company said Tuesday. It also takes the price of the car to 134,500. Earlier in August, Tesla started offering a new 593-per month lease on its base Model S sedan.
