What is the logic behind that?
Tesla isn't interested in building 'full self-driving' cars?
"Buy a Tesla while you can!" - yes, be quick, very quick, you only have another 20 years or so...
It will build them, it just won't sell them. Because it can make much more money using them as robotaxis. So Elon says. Expect Elon to be living on Mars before this happens.What is the logic behind that?

Would anyone like to hazard a guess at how long it will be before a vehicle, any vehicle, is technologically and legally capable of traversing all of the UK's road network in all weather conditions, which is surely the bench mark for "full" self driving? I think it's still 10-15 years away in non optimal conditions.
Mind you that's still better than humans there are quite a lot of us who will NEVER get there

I'd like to see that where I live - single track roads with occasional muddy bits in the hedgerows as passing places and occasional long reverses to a farm gate when large kit comes the other way.
One of the things with watching Autopilot videos is that they can both amaze me and scare me at the same time. I stumbled acrossI'd like to see that where I live - single track roads with occasional muddy bits in the hedgerows as passing places and occasional long reverses to a farm gate when large kit comes the other way. Even better in winter on the hills. Last bad winter one of the snowploughs lost his way and snow-ploughed across a field instead of the road. I was scraping doorhandles on the 4x4 between walls of snow that year.
I think for genuine level 5 automation in all A roads (forget the B's etc) it's still more than a decade away with additonal cameras a radars
Other mobility choices will make car ownership largely redundant.
Amazing how autopilot can cope so well with something so far out of its official comfort zone, but a few 'little' things, like drifting left, spoil the show. I feel that it will achieve 80/20 in a reasonable amount of time (quite a few years but we are in this for the long haul), which is why I ordered FSD.
will turn out to have all of the necessary hardware
....but it can cope pretty well with many A-roads. The other thing it is currently very poor at is speed control. If for example you are in AP on a winding 60 mph road it will automatically brake for bends, but often not enough to get round them consistently without having to over-ride auto-steer. It does a better job when following another car where the driver in front is effectively controlling your speed too. Left to its own speed control it typically enters corners too fast and then over-compensates with a very slow exit. The only way to make it smoother is to set a lower speed limit and manually adjust it for the straights. I think the guy in the video was doing this kind of thing.
