It's hard to say exactly what they will do, but a $5000 option is not likely to be very popular on a $35K car. One thing they could do is to have a reduced EAP. The competition certainly offers stop and go adaptive cruise control and lane keeping for less than $2K. Summons is something they could certainly drop from the Model 3 EAP and leave for FSD, and perhaps auto lane change or self parking. That way they could offer it at a more attractive price and still justify the higher Model S price. Other companies driver assistance packages vary by model.
Which competitor offers all of that for 2k? It is a 2k option on the Mercedes S-Class, thats true, but for the Mercedes C-Class you have to select the luxury package 4, which is $8,650. For 3k you get the blindspot assist.
