IS TESLA FULL SELF DRIVING WORTH $12,000?

EV Channels Review

This video critically examines the value proposition of Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) Beta, particularly the $12,000 option. The reviewer, along with guest Armando, finds that while FSD Beta shows remarkable capabilities, especially on highways, it is not yet reliable enough for city streets. The system frequently disengages, requiring constant driver intervention, leading to a lack of confidence and relaxation. Armando, who paid $8,000 for FSD, states he doesn't think it's worth it, preferring the enhanced autopilot features now available for $6,000. The reviewer agrees, calling FSD a "party trick" at its current $12,000 price point, especially given its limitations in urban environments and construction zones. The video also touches on the Model Y Performance's suspension, suggesting aftermarket upgrades like Unplugged Performance offer a superior ride, potentially a better investment than FSD. Ultimately, the consensus is that FSD Beta is not worth the premium cost for its current functionality.
