Agree in theory but no one has built in a similar sensor suite to Tesla or added a powerful enough computer chip in their cars. This roots back to Tesla treating the whole car like a unified piece of software and having much better programmatic control over it. I only mentioned autopilot because the leading EV does have it as an included feature and so when weighing options people might question why it's not there on other models.
- vel0city 5y agoIt's not an included feature on the Teslas, it's a $10k option.
- judge2020 5y agoYou’re not wrong about ‘full self driving’, but “Autopilot” - which is just lane steering and adaptive cruise - is standard on every car you can get from Tesla’s site (you might still be able to get a model 3 without it by calling sales, but I haven’t heard of that working as of recent).
- bhauer 5y agoSeveral pieces of the Autopilot software suite are included at no charge. The "FSD Capability" (pre-payment for a future delivery of full self-driving) is the $10K option you are thinking of. Buyers of the FSD Capability package get some additional beta features such as "Navigate on Autopilot" which will do lane changes on freeways, but is otherwise significantly less than actual full self-driving as it would be understood by a layperson.

- topkeks 5y agoNo, it's not a $10k option. People should stop repeating this TSLAQ meme.
- leesec 5y agoAll Teslas now have the 8 cameras and computer chip and Autopilot comes standard. it's 10k to enable the FSD via software.
