  • Enhanced autopilot returns as an option in China and Australia

    Enhanced autopilot returns as an option in China and Australia

    Enhanced autopilot has returned as an option on Tesla’s website in both China and Australia.

    At about half the price of Full Self Driving Capability (FSD) Enhanced AP works by mostly driving for you on the highways while also offering summoning and auto parking. It doesn’t respond to traffic lights, stop signs and won’t make turns on city streets.

    For over a year now it hasn’t been an option. But at the current price I don’t think it’s a good value. In Canada it costs $100/month to subscribe to FSD. at the Australia price that’s around 50 months or over 4 years of FSD. It’s great to see it as an option but for it to be a good value the price would need to be significantly dropped.

    In Canada and the US it’s not currently available. We’ll see if it makes it our way when we get the new Model Y is released here.

  • Tesla Canada offering 0% APR if you option FSD (Supervised)

    For Model 3s and Ys sold and picked up until the end of the year, Tesla is offering 0% APR for FSD (Supervised) at a current price of $11,000

    This promotion follows a 1.99% APR promotion that the company offered on the Model Y for deliveries before September 30, 2024. That promotion didn’t require the purchase of FSD at $11,000 though.

    Tesla’s online calculator has already been updated to reflect the change. If FSD (Supervised) is selected, the quouted APR % shown is 0%. According to Tesla’s online calculator, promotional rates for longer term loans are also available when FSD (Supervised) is optioned:

    Term Lenght (months)APR %
    360%
    480%
    600.99%
    720.99%
    841.99%
    962.99%

    In the US, Tesla also launched a similar promotion in October but they quickly dropped the FSD (Supervised) requirement. If you’re interested in a Model Y or Model 3 with FSD (Supervised), this is a great promotion. If you aren’t interested in FSD (Supervised), there might be better promotions as we get closer to the end of the year.
