Tesla Inc‘s Vice President of Investor Relations Martin Viecha is due to leave the company later this year, but he can’t seem to part with the company’s electric cars.
What Happened: Viecha took to X last week, saying he considered purchasing a new family electric car from a rival brand. However, the executive later scrapped the plan.
“Can’t do it…I can’t own a car that doesn’t have FSD (supervised). It’s a deal breaker,” Viecha wrote.
FSD is the acronym for Tesla’s full self-driving advanced driver assistance software which is expected to enable vehicle autonomy in due time. While it requires active driver supervision, it allows for auto lane changes and traffic navigations.
