Tesla is developing an advanced, upgraded Full Self-Driving model under the leadership of Elon Musk.
Tesla's New Full Self-Driving Model: What We Know So Far
Tesla is set to release its new Full Self-Driving (FSD) model, with early testing and employee rollout expected in late September. If testing goes well, some aspects of the upgrade could be available by the end of August or early September[3][4].
The new FSD model is expected to be available to Tesla owners who have opted for the FSD package, with initial updates going to employees and early testers before being made available to a broader audience[5]. The eligibility criteria for the general public have not been explicitly detailed.
One of the key features of the new FSD model is a significant increase in parameters, approximately 10 times more than the current version. This upgrade should enhance the model's capabilities significantly[2][3]. Additionally, the update includes advancements in video compression technology, which could improve the system's ability to process and interpret visual data from cameras[2].
The new FSD model aims to reduce the need for driver attention significantly, though drivers will still be required to remain attentive, especially in complex scenarios like heavy weather or unusual events[1][2]. The new model is also expected to improve Tesla's robotaxi fleet functionality and could potentially be used in Tesla's robotaxi fleet[6].
The potential impact of the new FSD model is significant, especially in Europe where Elon Musk's popularity is low. Some market bulls believe the new FSD model could correct slumping sales, but its success may depend on factors including Musk's global popularity[4].
