THE HONEST TRUTH - $8,000 TESLA FSD REVIEW | WORTH IT?

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides an in-depth, albeit critical, look at Tesla's $8,000 Full Self-Driving (FSD) package in 2024. While acknowledging the technological marvel of FSD's core driving capabilities, the reviewer questions the value proposition, particularly for features like Navigate on Autopilot, Auto Lane Change, Auto Park, and Summon, deeming some outdated or unreliable. The core FSD Supervised feature is praised for its improvement and utility on long or fatigue-inducing drives, but the reviewer stresses the necessity of constant supervision. A major point of contention is the FSD purchase being tied to the vehicle, not the account, making a totaled car a $8,000 loss. The reviewer strongly advocates for the subscription model ($99/month) as the superior, more flexible, and cost-effective option, offering all the benefits without the ownership risks and high upfront cost. The verdict leans heavily towards subscribing rather than buying outright.
