Buy a Tesla before 2021 and get free self-driving, says Elon Musk

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, is out here doing marketing on Twitter as we enter the last few days of 2020. Musk tweeted Tuesday night that anyone who buys a new Tesla will receive three months free of charge from the company’s full self-driving mode. . Access to the software, which is usually in beta and not complete cost $ 10,000 extra just to experience it.

All Tesla cars delivered during the last three days of the year receive the full self-driving option for three months free of charge. Delivery and documents must be completed by midnight December 31st.

All new Teslas have a form of the firm’s Autopilot system, a Level 2 semi-automatic technology on the SAE scale of autonomy, but Full Self-Driving hopes to live up to its name one day. The company introduced the technology to limited groups of managers earlier this year and plans extend the invitations to those who paid for the option to take advantage of the features. Even Tesla says the system can do the wrong thing at the wrong time, so it is definitely not ready for hands-free driving, but many owners find that it works well with a lot of supervision.

To take advantage of Musk’s latest flash deal, buyers must complete all documents and deliver by midnight on December 31st, so it’s probably best to buy Teslas currently in stock if you really want the full self-driving free price have. We also heard earlier this month that Tesla is authorizing its staff to do so. add free Supercharging once again for anyone buying a new EV, as the carmaker is pushing for record deliveries in 2020.

We’ll only know early next year if the tactic worked, but Musk is kind of the master at encouraging fans to buy if it counts.
