Tesla FSD Beta Is Next Rolling Out In Canada, Norway, Musk Says

Tesla Inc TSLA CEO Elon Musk said Monday that Canada and Norway are next in line after the United States to experience the full self-driving beta software.

What Happened: “Canada and Norway are next after we get [the United States] out of early beta!,” Musk said on Twitter.

The Palo Alto, California-based automaker has been rolling out the software slow and cautious approach to the rollout — limiting the accessibility to a “small number of people who are expert [and] careful drivers,” as per Musk.

The executive has himself tested out the alpha version and said he observed “zero interventions between home [and] work.”

Why It Matters: Last month, Musk had said that the price of the FSD Beta would be increased by $2,000, as multiple testers shared their positive experiences after the software was made available.

The price hike was deferred by a number of days and became effective on Oct. 29. Musk had also announced that a way to rent the feature would be made available starting next year.

“One week clock [for price increase] will start in other countries as beta is released,” Musk had said at the time.

Price Action: Tesla shares closed nearly 3.2% higher at $400.51 on Monday and gained 0.12% in the after-hours session.
