Tesla moves Basic Autopilot features to paid FSD where available

Tesla has quietly removed Basic Autopilot from its online configurator in the Netherlands. New orders now only offer Full Self-Driving (Supervised) — no free driver-assistance tier at all.

The change makes the Netherlands the first European market where Tesla has stripped Basic Autopilot from the buying experience, mirroring the controversial move it made in North America back in January.

What changed in the Netherlands

We verified the change directly on Tesla’s Dutch configurator. When configuring a new Model 3 or Model Y, the only driver-assistance option available is FSD (Supervised), offered as a €99/month subscription, a €7,500 one-time purchase, or “Add later.”

There is no Basic Autopilot option — not as a standard inclusion, not as an add-on. It’s simply gone.
