However, drivers will have to meet certain requirements to use the feature. First, FSD is only available in Teslas that have the required hardware installed. Second, only drivers who have purchased the FSD option (which costs $15,000 if purchased separately) can request the feature to be activated from their car's touchscreen, Musk explained.
“Full Self-Driving” is a set of features that brings Tesla cars very close to autonomous driving, with the driver entering a destination into the navigation system and the car driving there on its own – of course the driver will have to be on standby to take control of the car at all times.
Initially, this feature was only available to a very small group of people. However, Tesla later chose to make it accessible to anyone who met the requirements . Today, Teslascope noticed that the newer software no longer includes these requirements.
The news is likely to attract the attention of regulators, who were not thrilled that Tesla released a “beta” version of its self-driving package. The package had a number of documented problems, including issues with “phantom braking.”

Tesla is gradually increasing the price of the FSD, with Musk claiming that its value will “probably exceed $100,000” after it is approved by regulators.
