Do you think that there exists a big-enough market of consumers who will happily pay a recurring subscription for FSD-esque features in their car?
What would be the price point of such a subscription? I struggle to think of a cost that strikes the balance between value for money and me being suspicious of the quality of the service I'm getting. 100s of dollars could easily double or triple the monthly lease/loan which will directly impact the value-prop math we do do in our heads when buying a car. Tens of dollars will immediately make me suspicious of the quality of the service I'm getting.
I'm not so sure about any of this. My feeling is that the majority of consumers will not opt of such a subscription, especially if it's something "I can just do myself for free" (drive my car). I have no data to back this feeling though, so I'm curious to know what others think.
- PittleyDunkin 2y agoWhat do you even subscribe to? Is the alleged self driving run by a data center somewhere?
- beAbU 2y agoThat was going to be my follow on question. Presumably the answer is a bunch of tele-operators in a 3rd world country, based on this article.
