"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. However, competing companies have not wanted to license FSD for a handful of speculative reasons: competitive pride, regulatory concerns, high costs, or preference for in-house development."
Tesla offered to license its Full Self-Driving (FSD) suite to legacy automakers but received no takers, signaling frustration with firms that refuse the technology. Tesla claims leadership in self-driving technology in the United States and positions FSD as broadly operable rather than limited to specific regions or roadways. The company is improving FSD through large-scale data collection and fleet growth, supported by subscription programs, free trials, and other strategies. Competing automakers reportedly reject licensing for reasons such as competitive pride, regulatory concerns, cost, or a preference for in-house development. The reluctance echoes earlier dismissal of electric vehicles by legacy automakers, which later scrambled to catch up.
