According to Sawyer Merritt, Tesla has filed an application to expand its AI-enhanced vehicle rental program to Michigan, featuring unlimited miles, free Supercharging, and Full Self-Driving (FSD) included in all rentals. This move demonstrates Tesla's push to commercialize its AI-powered FSD technology through practical applications in the rental market. The program offers flexible rentals up to 7 days, attractive daily pricing (Model 3/Y at $60, Cybertruck at $75, Model S/X at $90), and a $250 discount on vehicle purchases made within a week of rental. For the AI industry, this expansion highlights increasing business opportunities in integrating autonomous driving and AI features into mobility services, reinforcing the commercial viability of AI-driven vehicle fleets.

According to Sawyer Merritt, Tesla has launched a new car rental program at select U.S. stores, allowing customers to rent a Tesla for up to 7 days starting at $60 per day. The program features access to Tesla's advanced Full Self-Driving (FSD) Supervised technology and includes complimentary Supercharging for the duration of the rental. This initiative demonstrates Tesla's push to make AI-driven autonomous driving experiences more accessible to consumers and serves as a real-world deployment of its AI systems. The program also offers a $250 discount on new Tesla purchases within 7 days of the rental, which could drive increased adoption of Tesla's AI-powered vehicles and create new business avenues for direct AI technology consumer engagement (source: Sawyer Merritt on Twitter).
