In the third quarter of 2024, Tesla recognized $326 million in Full Self-Driving (FSD) revenue, attributed to the Cybertruck and features like Actually Smart Summon. This figure represents a slight increase from the $324 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2022. The recognition of FSD revenue has been a significant contributor to Tesla's profits, with deferred revenue for Cybertruck FSD and Actually Smart Summon estimated at over $300 million. Despite a 17% decline in stock value, analysts noted that this drop follows a record high in the previous quarter, suggesting that Tesla's cost reduction strategies may have played a role in maintaining profitability amidst challenges.
