Transfer of FSD!

[Gurule92]

Was this specific to just the CT or the whole Tesla range?

Didnt feel like he was even thinking about CT at the time

Q: Have you considered allowing FSD transferability as a lever to allow existing customers to upgrade to a new Tesla instead of being locked in to existing cars due to price of FSD?

A: Yeah this is a question we get asked a lot. We’re excited to announce that for Q3 we will be allowing transfer of FSD. This is a one-time amnesty. You need to take advantage of it in Q3. Or at least place the order in Q3, within reasonable delivery time frames. I hope this makes people happy. But this is a one-time thing.

thinking on this more, I just don’t think this could be CT relevant, at least not in the war that helps buyers of the CT

instead that they anticipate Q3 suppression of orders and so deliveries in Q4/Q1, and are looking to juice the resulting numbers

to the extent people don’t like how FSD isn’t transferrable, this one-time amnesty seems an odd strategic choice, optically. Emphasizes that it’s possible, that Tesla uses the prohibition as a lever, and - after Q3 - will create buckets of haves vs have-nots.

that said, same could be said of MSRP, model availability, etc. People just aren’t used to or happy with the notion of an expensive option to which they don’t own more than a conditional license when it’s not a recurring subscription-as-a-service.

Priced like CapEx pricing, for OpEx functionality.

Well, no relevance for CT. Must take delivery by 9/30.

Tesla outlines the following conditions to owners:

1. Be the legal and registered owner of a Tesla vehicle that currently has Full Self-Driving capability included at the time of delivery of the new Tesla vehicle. The vehicle cannot be the subject of a pending cancellation of buyback request.
2. Take delivery of your new titled Tesla between July 20, 2023, and September 30, 2023.
3. Accept the forfeiture of the Full Self-Driving capability on your current Tesla vehicle. Alternatively, you can choose to trade-in your current Tesla vehicle altogether directly with Tesla when you purchase your new Tesla vehicle. Tesla will remove Full Self-Driving capability from your current Tesla vehicle up to one week before your scheduled delivery day for your new Tesla. During this process, your current vehicle will automatically reboot for a few minutes after put in park.
4. The Full Self-Driving capability can only be transferred once and so cannot be transferred to another vehicle or to another person, even if the vehicle is privately sold. This offer cannot be combined with any other promotion, and is not redeemable for cash.
5. Tesla reserves the right to change, modify, or terminate this offer at any time without prior notice.
6. The forfeiture of the Full Self-Driving capability on your current vehicle is non-reversible after you take delivery of the new Tesla vehicle, or we remove Full Self-Driving capability from your current vehicle, whichever occurs first. This remains non-reversible even in the event that you cancel or reverse your purchase after you have taken delivery.
7. Used vehicles and vehicles for commercial purposes are not eligible for this program.
8. Tesla may remove the Full Self-Driving capability from your new vehicle if it determines in good faith that you have breached any of these terms or made any misrepresentations about Full Self-Driving on your current vehicle.
9. This offer cannot be applied retroactively after the new Tesla vehicle is delivered.
