Tesla removes Autopilot from new Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in US and Canada
Tesla has discontinued its driving assistance system, Autopilot, from all its new Model Y and Model 3 vehicles in the U.S. and Canada.
The company is also currently facing a 30-day suspension of its manufacturing and dealer licenses in California for deceptive marketing about Autopilot's capabilities.
Here's what's happening: If you buy a new Tesla car in the U.S., you will no longer receive the Basic Autopilot set of features, which was previously included with every Tesla. Instead, you're getting Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, which is a feature that maintains set driving speed and slows down when there's a slower vehicle in front of you.
Tesla has shifted its approach to driver assistance, quietly redefining what "standard" means on its best-selling cars.
Tesla has decided to put its free Basic Autopilot feature behind a paywall for Model 3 and Model Y vehicles, pushing drivers to get FSD.
