Elon Musk confirms Tesla's Robotaxis in Austin will go fully unsupervised in about three weeks, removing safety monitors.

A new test reveals Tesla's FSD v14.2.1 allows some 'texting and driving' based on traffic context, though it's still cautioned against due to legal and safety implications.

Tesla has launched one-month FSD (Supervised) gift cards in the U.S., allowing owners to share the driving experience, just in time for the holidays.

Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) demo program in Europe is a bigger hit than expected, extending through March 2026 across Germany, France, and Italy. Europeans are lining up for a passenger-seat peek at the future, as Tesla pushes for regulatory approval.

In a wild test, Tesla's FSD (Supervised) v14.1.7 proved it could expertly swerve to avoid a simulated sideswipe, even turning around when provoked. This demonstration on a closed track highlights FSD's advanced hazard avoidance, showing it can react quicker than a human driver to aggressive maneuvers and potentially 'road rage' scenarios.

Tesla's not just offering a 30-day FSD trial; it's a 40-day 'Holiday Perk' for 1.5 million HW4 owners, strategically timed to run through Christmas and New Year's. This extended test drive aims to turn family passengers into FSD advocates, making the latest v14 a household name and hopefully fueling subscriptions by January.

Tesla's latest FSD update, v14.2.1, is getting some real talk about its new 'Speed Profiles,' with users reporting abrupt speed changes and fixed limits that just don't jive with real-world traffic. It seems like the system's trying to be a little *too* perfect, creating a gap between what drivers expect and what the car delivers.

Tesla just announced a wild 30-day free trial for Full Self-Driving (v14.2), letting owners experience the latest autonomous tech. This bold move aims to boost FSD adoption, letting more drivers sample the future before the robotaxi era really kicks into gear.

Tesla just dropped Full Self-Driving (Supervised) v14.1.4 in South Korea, making it the seventh country to get a taste of the advanced driver assistance system. Initially rolling out to HW4-equipped Model S and X, this marks another big step in Tesla's global 'train anywhere, deploy anywhere' autonomy strategy!
