"Elon Musk said in late November that he's "tried to warn" legacy automakers and "even offered to license Tesla Full Self-Driving, but they don't want it," expressing frustration with companies that refuse to adopt the company's suite, which will eventually be autonomous. Tesla has long established itself as the leader in self-driving technology, especially in the United States. Although there are formidable competitors, Tesla's FSD suite is the most robust and is not limited to certain areas or roadways. It operates anywhere and everywhere."
"Musk and Tesla have tried to push Full Self-Driving to other car companies, with no true suitors, despite ongoing conversations for years. Tesla's FSD is aiming to become more robust through comprehensive data collection and a larger fleet, something the company has tried to establish through a subscription program, free trials, and other strategies. Tesla CEO Elon Musk sends rivals dire warning about Full Self-Driving"
"The company's current position as the leader in self-driving tech is being ignored by legacy automakers, a parallel to what Tesla's position was with EV development over a decade ago, which was also ignored by competitors. The reluctance mirrors how legacy automakers initially dismissed EVs, only to scramble in catch-up mode years later-a pattern that highlights their historical underestimation of disruptive innovations from Tesla."
Tesla has established a lead in Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology that operates broadly across roadways. Elon Musk says Tesla offered to license FSD to legacy automakers but found little interest. Tesla seeks to strengthen FSD through large-scale data collection, fleet growth, subscriptions, and free trials. Legacy automakers are declining licensing for reasons including competitive pride, regulatory concerns, high costs, and preference for in-house development. The reluctance to adopt FSD mirrors earlier industry dismissal of electric vehicles, when legacy automakers downplayed EVs and later scrambled to catch up, revealing a pattern of underestimating disruptive innovations.
