NO Tesla doesn't call it autopilot anymore but instead "Self Driving" and "Autosteer" instead

 
No, Tesla has officially phased out and retired the "Autopilot" name from its vehicle software and new car lineups. Prompted by regulatory pressure and legal scrutiny over misleading naming, Tesla updated its software interface to replace "Autopilot" references with terms like "Self-Driving" and "Autosteer", while discontinuing the free basic Autopilot bundle for new vehicles. 
The Rebranding and Changes
  • Menu changes: The on-screen settings tab previously labeled "Autopilot" is now called "Self-Driving". 
  • Feature names: "Navigate on Autopilot" was renamed to "Navigate on Auto Steer", and disengagement alerts now say "Self-Driving disengaged". 
  • Standard inclusion: New vehicles no longer come with free standard Autosteer/Autopilot capability out of the box, shifting buyers toward Full Self-Driving (FSD) configurations. 
  • Grandfathered owners: Drivers who previously purchased vehicles with the original Autopilot package keep their functional features under their original terms. 
Would you like to know more about the current differences between Full Self-Driving (Supervised) and standard Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, or are you looking for details on pricing?
