Tesla Joy

Dear @Tesla, there is a development in Europe that I think might pose a risk for sales. And some bad blood with customers. FSD buy option is cancelled from 21st of May onwards here in Europe. But most European countries don't have FSD supervised, yet. So the old FSD is gone, the new one not there yet. Not optimal, but that's how it is. Now you give us here in Europe another blow: Autopilot will be gone, too, as I just heard. So now you maneuver yourself in a position where, until FSD is legalized in most or all European countries, you offer "premium" cars, that are **less** autonomous than most others on the market. It does just have a measly cruise control without steering. I can't imagine this will go down well with customers. New ones will want more included. Old ones like me will shy away from changing their car - at least not for a new Tesla. See, I had a Model 3 2021 on lease and had bought FSD, because I am a tech nerd and love Tesla. In 2023 I got a Model Y on lease. Sadly HW3, as HW4 was only released a month later. Bad luck. Still I bought FSD, because I love Tesla and I am a tech nerd. Now I understand, I won't get unsupervised and the supervised version will be sin par to HW4. I might get a refit. But the Infos and timelines are a bit murky. I planned to return the lease to the leading bank and lease a Model 3 or Y. Now there's my predicament: 1) I cannot transfer FSD, because: both cars need to be owned by me. Leases don't apply. 2) I cannot buy FSD anymore. 3) I cannot subscribe to FSD yet. 4) if I change cars now, I don't even get Autopilot anymore. I have at the moment **zero** incentive to buy a Tesla. And after having invested twice in a promise that didn't come true, I don't get squat now. A hard life for a loyal fan. But I am not a whiner, I see a problem, I propose a solution. It is a matter of timing. You just need to leave the FSD buy option and Autopilot a bit longer until the new FSD supervised is subscribable. Else, many will think twice before buying the car as a first owner or getting an exchange/trade in for their actual Tesla. Else, this might pose for a) bad sales for however long the EU takes to legalize this and b) hurt customer trust. I gave you loyalty. I hope it wasn't in vain. Still love Tesla and your mission, that's why I tell you when I see a problem and try to be part of the solution. PS: I am a Tesla Investor, too, albeit a quite small one, so loyalty is given on multiple fronts here. Nods to out beloved @TeslaBoomerMama Alexandra Merz!
