I'm a bit disappointed that it's only until the end of Q1, but at least it's something. I think they should allow FSD transfer on all trade-ins until FSD is out of beta.

If the vehicle already had a fully operational FSD and supercharging paid for why is it so hard to allow a new vehicle owner use the capabilites that were already in the car?

It doesn't cost Tesla any more money for one owner to use those features for an extended amount of time vice two owners to use it for the same amount of time.

It's unfortunate that Tesla is keeping up its anti consumer practices.

Free supercharging definitely costs Tesla money, since they're giving away electricity for free. I don't think it makes sense for two owners to benefit in the way you describe.

FSD is a bit more complex. No Tesla vehicles currently have fully operational FSD (only FSD beta), so I think it seems only fair to allow transfer of FSD to new trade-ins, at least until FSD is out of beta.
