Those who purchased the new 2024 Tesla Model S or the 2024 Tesla Model X are in luck. The company just announced a new $5,000 bundle for the aforementioned EVs, offering Full Self-Driving (FSD), Premium Connectivity, and unlimited Supercharging for 36 months. This package is quite a saving, since customers are getting all these features at a potentially lower price point compared to individual subscriptions. Here's a breakdown of the costs:
- Full Self-Driving (FSD): $99 per month, totaling $3,564 over 36 months.
- Premium Connectivity: $9.99 per month, adding up to $360 over the same period.
These two services alone account for $3,924, leaving $1,076 of the bundle's cost attributed to unlimited Supercharging. This part is slightly tricky. Supercharging costs may vary, with rates ranging from $0.25 to $0.44 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), depending on location. Using an average rate of $0.30/kWh, a full charge for a 2024 Model S Long Range, which has a 100-kWh battery and an EPA-rated range of 402 miles, would cost about $30. This translates to approximately $0.075 per mile for Supercharger-based travel.
Tesla just published the Vehicle Safety Report for Q2 2024, claiming that their EVs with Autopilot were way above the national average vehicle-safety wise. Furthermore, it's the cheapest car brand to maintain long-term, as per Consumer Reports data. Full Self-Driving also got a big upgrade recently, and Elon just confirmed that the Cybertruck will get the v12.5 update later this August. Couple these stats with the new $5,000 bundle, and Tesla seems to present itself as a very enticing option for those in the market for a new EV.
