What the heck...Enhanced AutoPilot does not exist anymore
- Thread starter CommandoFL
- Start date
Because the people buying the basic cheap trim of the car are probably not willing to pay an extra $5k, but they might pay $3k.
Would you rather make $5k on 10% of 100,000 cars, or $3k on 30% of them?|

It's Not Easy Being Green
TBH, I remembered quite a few posts where people complained that they only wanted certain features of EAP, namely only TACC and less so Autosteer. This seems like this is Tesla's response to those criticisms.
The point is to even get enhanced auto pilot i have to pay 10000.000 where before it was 7000.00 after delivery. He is really screwing early adopters.

What does this have to do with "early adopters"? The changes only affect people buying today.
No...I bought in december. It clearly stated that I could get EAP for 7000 after delivery. Now I would have to shell out 11000.00 to get all the features that were listed on the EAP then. DIG IT MAN
If you were an early adopter, you would already have EAP.
Do you have a screenshot from the upgrades page in your Tesla account to prove that?

This is what most are forgetting; post purchase/trial EAP was $5500 and FSD $5000.
Now it is $4000 and $7000, $500 more.
The total cost if bought at time of purchase now is $8000, which is the same as it was before.

Tesla has to date honored prior post-purchase upgrade prices. Might happen in this case. Though I'm not sure I agree that you're owed the right to purchase a package that doesn't exist any more just because you didn't buy it at the time of purchase.

Early adopters now have EEAP, now you can only order regular EAP
To get some of the features that were previously included you have to shell out alot more money.

All Tesla
All Teslas prior to today came with Autopilot and EAP was extra. The new Autopilot add-on is $3000. Being that it's called just Autopilot I was curious if would get new Autopilot that "Enables your car to steer, accelerate and brake automatically for other vehicles and pedestrians within its lane."

No, they came with the hardware, but no features were enabled.

I believe the old Model 3 webpage claimed the Model 3 comes with Autopilot not to be confused with Enhanced Autopilot. The below excerpt was from the manual. I am just hoping they will roll out new Autopilot to early adopters.
Autopilot:
These AUTOPILOT safety features are available on all Model 3 vehicles:
• Lane Assist (see Lane Assist on page 74).
• Collision Avoidance Assist (see Collision Avoidance Assist on page 76).
• Speed Assist (see Speed Assist on page 79).
These convenience features, designed to reduce driver workload, are available only if your Tesla vehicle is equipped with the optional
ENHANCED AUTOPILOT or FULL SELF-DRIVING Capability packages:
• Traffic-Aware Cruise Control (see Traffic-Aware Cruise Control on page 61).
• Autosteer (see Autosteer on page 67).
• Auto Lane Change (see Auto Lane Change on page 70).
You can enable/disable Autopilot features and in some cases, control how they work. To access settings for Autopilot features, touch Controls > Autopilot > Settings.

I see what you're saying. But the answer to your question is still no. Safety features that use the autopilot hardware have always been included, you are correct. However, that doesn't imply that the new "autopilot" package available for $3k is going to make the convenience features available on cars that did not purchase one of the convenience feature packages.

We can still hope though
Hope is not a strategy.
Tesla is not going to give you something you didn't pay for that they currently charge $3,000 for.
