A poll conducted this month shows more U.S. consumers say Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) technology, or FSD, would push them away from the brand than draw them to it.
Only 14% of those surveyed for the Electric Vehicle Intelligence report said FSD would make them more likely to buy a Tesla.
“The drop in the company’s brand reputation this year is remarkable,” said Evan Roth Smith, head of research at Slingshot Strategies, which conducted the survey.

Wait are people still buying swasta cars?
I don’t see how logically, an optional to use feature would make people less likely to buy a vehicle. Sure, it seems like a good indicator of consumer sentiment towards the brand- but the article states over half of Tesla users have never even tried it.
So Tesla could have saved themselves a ton of money by not focusing so much on autonomous, and the Model 3 could have been like $30k with all the cost savings.
I suspect this has more to do with Tesla’s brand damage than people actually disliking FSD.
This article reeks of bias and I didnt even click on it lol.
