Tesla has formally relaunched the offer following conflicting reports over the weekend on whether the Full Self-Driving (FSD) beta could be extended to new car buyers for a certain period.
When the lifelong Supercharging benefit was first announced on Saturday, the Model 3 was not included, but the carmaker has since added it to its list of limited-time transfers.
Tesla Expands FSD Beta Transfers and Enhances Supercharging Perk by Including Model 3
When customers in North America take delivery of their Model S, X, 3, or Y before March 31st, Tesla is now offering free FSD beta transfers (via Sawyer Merritt).
The announcement follows X user Omar of Whole Mars Blog's observation on Saturday that the opportunity to transfer the FSD beta to a freshly purchased vehicle was displayed on Tesla's trade-in estimate website, along with the following message:
“Includes transfer of your current trade-in vehicle’s FSD capability at no cost to you if you take delivery of a new Tesla vehicle by March 31, 2024.”
Although many speculated that the offer's appearance was the result of an error or bug, it's unclear why the line was later taken down from the page.
But shortly after, Omar posted a follow-up screenshot of a message from Tesla stating that FSD beta transfers would indeed be arriving soon and suggesting that the firm might have chosen to revive the program in response to feedback from its users.
“Coming Soon: FSD Transfer for US Customers,” Tesla wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “Great news! We have heard our customers’ feedback and are working to relaunch FSD transfers in the United States as soon as possible.”
Tesla Broadens Incentives: Expanding Supercharging and FSD Benefits Across Borders
However, according to a Sunday update from Merritt, Tesla has not only formally reopened FSD beta transferability but will also allow customers to acquire the new Model 3 in addition to the Model S, X, and Y.
The update also mentioned that the benefit would be granted in Mexico and Canada in addition to the United States, even though Tesla's first letter only mentioned the latter.
Tesla also began offering lifetime free Supercharging transfers on Saturday to customers who take delivery on March 31. This incentive is now available for the Model 3, whereas it was previously limited to purchasers of the Model S, X, and Y.
For consumers who took delivery of a new vehicle by September 30 of last year, Tesla first introduced FSD beta transferability, marking the first time software transfers to new cars were permitted.
The carmaker referred to it as a "one-time amnesty" at the time, but Tesla owners have subsequently made a strong case for FSD transferability.
