FYI: Tesla is extending its Full Self-Driving (FSD) free trial for owners, and subscribers can also benefit from the offer. This move is part of Tesla’s strategy to highlight the capabilities of its driver-assist system before launching FSD V13.
Tesla Extends FSD Trial by 30 Days for Owners and Subscribers
An increasing number of Tesla enthusiasts have taken to social media platforms, particularly X (formerly known as Twitter), to share that their Full Self-Driving (FSD) free trials are being lengthened by a further 30 days. This extension also appears to be applicable to existing FSD monthly subscribers.
Tesla continues to emphasize its commitment to FSD, as evident in its recent Q3 2024 earnings discussion. The company’s expansion plans, featuring vehicle models such as the Cybercab and the Robovan, are anticipated to heavily rely on the success of FSD technology. It makes sense that Tesla is eager to allow its customers to experience the full range of what this advanced system can offer.
Social Media Insights on Extended Trials
Social media is buzzing with Tesla owners’ reports, many sharing screenshots of notifications from Tesla announcing the additional 30-day complimentary FSD trial. Notably, for those already subscribed to monthly FSD services, Tesla extends this gracious offer by another month at no extra charge.
The company hasn’t explicitly stated why it’s offering another month of free trials. However, this generous move likely aims to maximize user exposure to FSD capabilities as the launch of FSD V13 approaches. This upcoming version has been a topic of interest, given the hints from Tesla AI team’s posts indicating an October release.
Anticipated Technological Advancements and Timing
Although Tesla’s track record with deadlines is mixed, its AI department has kept pace admirably. Successes such as the on-time rollout of the Cybertruck’s FSD and Actually Smart Summon features underline this efficiency. Keeping this momentum in mind, the potential arrival of FSD V13 seems imminent.
