I feel like the inclusion of FSD in the "launch" edition is like a subtle clue that Autopilot/FSD won't be working on launch, much like the Cybertruck. So they're including FSD for "free" as an "apology" for that. Sort of a "We know, but six months to a year from now, when we hammer it out, you'll have FSD!"

I dont know about the US pricing, but st least in EU you are literally paying for all the extra they cram into it. If you take off all the extras, the car still ends up like 1k more expensive

That's generally how "bragging rights" work. Want to save the $1,000, then wait a bit. I do the same thing with video game releases. I wait for a sale to pop up, unless it's something I *really* want, then I buy it at the higher price.

I think the new Model Y will simply have a price increase when the actual version comes out compared to the older version. But at least with the proper launch you arnt forced to get the FSDs and acceleration boosts and whatnot they are cramming into this launch edition. None of it is "free" when all of the extras are simply added to the price tag too

Not to mention that you're paying a premium for them to figure out how to produce the car. So, you'll be among the first to discover the issues as they pop up.

There's a variety of things added to the car, on top of FSD. Call it a big discount. There's no "forcing people to buy to collect more data". *Everyone* driving a Tesla is contributing to FSD, regardless of whether or not you own it. Once you connect to WiFi, you're uploading shit for Tesla to process.

So a prius

It's still a discount compared to buying a current Y with same specs.

No, the same specs in a current Y costs more.

Not sure I understand your comment. To buy the new model y you have to buy it fully loaded which means buying FSD. Which is fine, but it's not free.

Prius is a hybrid

Right now you do. Later on you don't. Now one said you need to buy it right now

FSD really isn't free. Everything that is included is worth $16K and it's like $14K more than the Long range.

Actually I checked and FSD + all the options are only forced on North American customers. The EU and APAC order pages don’t include FSD in the Launch edition and their prices are lower

Been looking forward to this to upgrade my RWD mid range 2018 Model 3. Recently moved from TX to WA and really needing an AWD now when I go into the mountains in the winter so I’ve already put in my order. What are you driving right now Ryan?

Yeah, as FSD doesnt work here, but theyve still crammed things like acceleration boost and expensive wheels etc, but yeah its just less stuff. You can buy FSD here, but it just doesnt really do anything that EAP wouldnt do and even that is useless lol

They do learn a lot from FSD disengagements tho, it's how they evaluate the performance of models

I was fortunate enough to get an Ultra Red Model 3 Performance with the 0% financing just before the holidays last month. I absolutely love it!

That’s awesome, enjoy!

Thank you!

So can someone sell me their old Y on the cheap pls
