He should try to cancel the original purchase agreement on the grounds that now the functionality is available Tesla has demonstrated no intention of delivering it to him, thus voiding the original agreement. Normally if a judge agrees, you get a full refund without controlling for depreciation.

Class actions in the Netherlands mostly favor lawyers.

I guess that’s the point, FSD is not available. What you buy is lvl 4/5 available is lvl 2+.

I think, this is a calculation to understand if an upgrade of hw3 to hw4 actually solves the problem or if hw3 must be updated to hw5.

One upgrade is more economical than two, but I would be annoyed for sure as well.

The definition of what “Tesla FSD is has changed over time. Earlier buyers were promised more, so they have a stronger case on that basis as well.

HW5 is unlikely to solve FSD.

Doesn't canceling the original purchase agreement mean you have to give the car back?
That sounds like even more of a win.
Yeah but it’s a 7 year old car, if it’s a Model 3 it’s around 20000€, nowhere near the original price
If they purchased the car 7 years ago I doubt they got it for that price. GP says "without controlling for depreciation"
I don't know US law but if the contract is void the original purchasing price would have to be given back in most countries.
You mean 13k (got the offer some months ago. Probably less now). That includes VAT by the way. On a VAT-car
I would love for everyone with a Tesla to do that.
