Tesla sets FSD subscription €99 in Europe

- Tesla changed Full Self-Driving pricing in Europe this week, offering a €99 monthly subscription and ending one-time purchases for new orders after May 21. - Tesla’s own support pages list €99 a month in the Netherlands and $99 a month in the United States for Full Self-Driving. - Tesla says eligible owners can subscribe in the Tesla app, while older outright purchases remain subject to existing delivery deadlines.

Tesla has now aligned key parts of its Full Self-Driving pricing around a monthly subscription in both Europe and the United States. Tesla’s support pages in Europe list Full Self-Driving Capability or Full Self-Driving (Supervised) at €99 a month in the Netherlands, while Tesla’s U.S. support page lists Full Self-Driving (Supervised) at $99 a month. The shift also appears on Tesla’s vehicle-order pages. Tesla’s U.K. Model Y configurator says Full Self-Driving Capability was available as a one-time purchase until May 21, 2026 and is “available as subscription after,” with the same cutoff shown for Enhanced Autopilot. The move gives Tesla a cleaner answer to a long-running pricing question: buy the software outright with the car, or pay monthly and cancel later. (tesla.com) Tesla has not posted a broad public statement on the change in the material reviewed here, but its sales and support pages now show the subscription model directly. ### Did Tesla really end the one-time FSD purchase in Europe? Tesla’s U.K. order page says the one-time purchase of Full Self-Driving Capability and Enhanced Autopilot was available only for orders placed no later than May 21, 2026, with delivery no later than June 30, 2026. (tesla.com) The same page says Full Self-Driving Capability cost £6,800 in the U.K. before the subscription-only handoff. That means Tesla did not erase the outright option for every pending European order immediately. Orders placed by the May 21 deadline can still keep the one-time package if the delivery conditions are met, according to Tesla’s terms on the configurator. ### Where does the €99 figure come from? Tesla’s Dutch support page says “Full Self-Driving Capability or Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is available as a monthly subscription for €99.” The page also says customers can add the subscription when ordering a new Tesla or subscribe later through the Tesla app. (tesla.com) Tesla’s support language matters because Europe is not uniform on feature availability. (tesla.com) The same page says availability depends on vehicle configuration, hardware, software version, country, region, legal approvals and model year. ### What changed in the United States? Tesla’s U.S. support page says Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is available as a monthly subscription of $99. (tesla.com) Tesla’s current U.S. offers page also says all Tesla models have a Full Self-Driving (Supervised) subscription available for $99 a month and that new buyers receive a 30-day trial at delivery. Tesla’s U.S. pages reviewed here do not show a current one-time purchase option alongside that subscription. (tesla.com) Tesla’s main U.S. Full Self-Driving page now highlights “Available for $99/mo,” reinforcing the subscription-first presentation. ### Is Europe getting the same FSD product as the U.S.? Tesla’s product pages show the answer is no, at least not in a simple one-to-one sense. Tesla’s Dutch support page refers to both “Full Self-Driving Capability” and “Full Self-Driving (Supervised),” and says an existing subscription to Full Self-Driving Capability will convert automatically to Full Self-Driving (Supervised) when the car becomes eligible because of legal approval, hardware and software requirements. (tesla.com 1) (tesla.com 2) Tesla’s Netherlands Full Self-Driving page says Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is currently available in the United States, Canada, China, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands and South Korea, with other regions to follow in future updates. ### What should owners and buyers watch next? June 30, 2026 is the key date on Tesla’s U.K. order page for customers trying to keep a one-time Full Self-Driving or Enhanced Autopilot purchase tied to orders placed by May 21. (tesla.com) For everyone else, Tesla’s support pages say the next step is in-app: open the Tesla app, go to Upgrades, then Software Upgrades, and subscribe if the vehicle is eligible.
