Tesla‘s Full Self-Driving (FSD) assistance package is no longer available as a one-time purchase in Europe.
Instead, users can sign up for FSD at a monthly fee of 99 euros/British pounds, depending on the market. Previously, European customers were only able to get FSD (or the promise of FSD) for a one-time fee of €7,500 or £6,800, respectively.

In addition, customers in Europe were previously able to get Tesla’s Enhanced Autopilot suite of driver assistance features for a one-time fee of €3,800 or £3,400, depending on the market. That feature is no longer available; however, the customers who previously purchased Enhanced Autopilot can now get FSD for a reduced fee of €49 per month.
Tesla FSD brings numerous self-driving features, including navigating through city streets, respecting traffic lights, automatic parking, and more. Enhanced Autopilot has a greatly reduced set of options, with highlights being automatic lane changing on motorways, helpful navigation while on autosteer, and automatic parking.
The news comes after FSD became available in two European markets: the Netherlands and Lithuania. However, we’ve checked, and the option is available even in the European markets where FSD hasn’t formally launched yet.
It’s also available for vehicles with older HW3 hardware (as opposed to HW4), even though Tesla CEO Elon Musk made it clear that HW3 cars will not be able to run FSD in its full capability, at least not without a hardware upgrade.
