Alternatively, you can lease a car like Nissan Leaf for the same $200 monthly. This price point makes no sense, except perhaps in the case of the company wanting to save face instead of turning off the service entirely. What percentage of owners do you think will opt in?

You could have also bought/leased a car for the 10k extra for the "capability" to maybe some day have self-driving. Same demographic I'd guess - people with enough money who think it's cool.

Dummies with more money than common-sense to realize this is just more Elon Musk snake oil vaporware?

My guess is 40%.
