Tesla FSD Tracker

Last updated

FSD (Supervised) requires an attentive driver and does not make the car autonomous. Tesla reported 1.48 million active FSD subscriptions at the end of Q2 2026, up 56% from a year earlier, and gives 55% only as a floor for the share of new North American deliveries with FSD (exact attach rate not disclosed). In the U.S. it is now subscription-only at $99 a month. Tesla does not break out FSD revenue.

TESLA-REPORTED

Active FSD subscriptions by quarter

Tesla's "Active FSD Subscriptions" metric, in millions, from its quarterly updates. Per Tesla, it counts up-front purchases and monthly subscriptions and excludes free trials.

Q4 2025's own update printed this series to one decimal (0.8, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1); later updates restated it to two decimals. Q3 2026 results are due Oct. 21, 2026. Paid-customer counts other than this metric: not disclosed.

FSD REVENUE

What Tesla discloses, and our estimate

Tesla-disclosed Not disclosed. Tesla's quarterly updates (Q4 2025 to Q2 2026) do not break out FSD revenue; they only say automotive ancillary or services revenue rose 'primarily driven by an increase in FSD subscriptions'. Company-wide deferred revenue (Q2 2026 balance sheet) mixes FSD with connectivity, Supercharging programs and other items, so it can't be read as FSD revenue.

Sources: Tesla Q2 2026 Update (July 22, 2026)Tesla Q1 2026 Update (Apr. 22, 2026)

OUR ESTIMATE, NOT TESLA-REPORTED$439.6M a quarter ($1.758B annualized), our calculation

1.48 million active FSD subscriptions (Tesla, Q2 2026 Update, July 22, 2026) × $99 a month (U.S. price on Tesla's FSD page, Oct. 2026) × 3 months = $439.6M; × 12 months = $1.758B.

Rough upper-bound illustration only. Tesla's metric includes owners who paid up front (recognized differently, not monthly), non-U.S. prices differ, and some subscribers use the $49/mo tier for Enhanced Autopilot cars or promotional months.
