Within a few years, the Tesla, became the leading electric car manufacturer in the world, and has made the autonomous driving the flagship feature in all the vehicles it manufactures.

Η Tesla calls autonomous driving as "auto pilot", however, one of the original co-founders of the company is fanatically against this technology.
In particular, the co-founder of Tesla, Martin Eberhard, stated in an interview:

In my opinion, we should get rid of the habit of thinking that everything related to her autonomous driving they should be combined with electric cars.

It's a completely separate technology, and I'd rather see people think about how we can make better cars that can be driven easily and safely the same people.

Autopilot is M@kalakies (Bullshit)

Ο Eberhard was its managing director Tesla, but was forced to resign by Elon Musk in 2007, and as he says, developing the software for autonomous driving in electric vehicles was not among his priorities while working at Tesla.
As he said Eberhard 

All of them the FSD and Autopilot bullshit they didn't exist while I was at Tesla. This happened later, and required a much larger budget than our original one.

When the Eberhard left Tesla the 2007, the company had not yet launched its first electric car. Tesla at that time developed it Roadster, a small sports car based on the Lotus Elise. The Lotus Elise is a two-seater convertible that was released for the first time on the market 1996 from Lotus Motors UK.

Ο Eberhard said that while appreciating all the "safety oriented systems" like the driver assistance features, who are "not a big fan»Of cars that have autonomous driving. When Musk started looking into self-driving cars, he identified it as one of his biggest concerns for the future of Tesla under his leadership Elon Musk, and that was one of the reasons it was forced out under pressure from Musk.

Electric cars don't have to be like iPhones

For years, Musk has promised that the Tesla will put fully autonomous vehicles on the road, which will not need to be driven by humans. Last year, in fact, Elon Musk stated that the autonomous driving system (Autopilot) by Tesla, is what makes the difference between a Tesla worth a lot of money or next to nothing.

Η Tesla is known for remote updates to the software of its vehicles, and Musk emphatically states that Tesla, in addition to being an electric vehicle manufacturer, is also Software Developer, but the Eberhard apparently disagrees with this approach.
