Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
Tesla’s subscription service for advanced driver assistance is here, because who doesn’t love paying monthly for features that were already supposed to be included? The company is framing this as a convenience, but let’s be real, it’s just another way to nickel-and-dime customers. The “latest updates and features” promise sounds suspiciously like something we’ve heard before. And hey, who needs to own a feature outright when you can just rent it?
