Great work by the Tesla AI team!
And much more still to come. By V14.3, your car will feel like it is sentient.
10 drives in with FSD v14.1 and here are all my thoughts.
First of all- wow. Zero disengagements or interventions thus far. The confidence and overall human like driving is next level. The steering inputs are so smooth, braking inputs are earlier and more linear than before.
It gives off Robotaxi vibes with how it navigates parking lots, plus how it drives and how quickly it backs into a parking spot. Such a nice experience to ride along with it.
Seeing FSD now navigate parking garages is so cool. When you enter it waits for the arm to open after you get your ticket, proceeds in and finds a parking space. When you leave it does the same thing, gets close to the ticket stand and then proceeds. Really fascinating to see in person.
It really sometimes feels like FSD can now read signs in the garage to guide it to the exit. Brought it to the back corner of a garage and it found its way out.
Hurry mode is awesome, quick and more assertive than before, while also being smoother with less unnecessary lane changes. Sloth mode is what youβd expect- exact speed limit and gentle driving. Icons are cool and easy to change. When you start FSD from park, thereβs no delay. It starts right away and leaves in a split second. Really good improvement.
I love being able to select the Arrival Options if I am parking curbside or in a charger, it also automatically chooses depending on where you navigate to.
It perfectly parks at Superchargers, tried it at the Tesla Diner and at the Santa Monica supercharger and both times it was excellent. Always centered in the lines and it parks better and quicker than the majority of humans do.
Only thing so far to note is one instance of slight braking when going around a bus blocking a lane, was probably not even 1/2 of a second and dropped 1-2mph but felt it. Super super minor.
Had FSD v14 move over for construction, a loose cone on a dark road, and obey a worker holding a stop sign. All of them were smooth and felt human like or better.
It pulls in and out of my driveway great, doesnβt hesitate at all as well as when at chargers. Everything has a quicker response time. Curbside is cool too as it pulls right up against the curb perfectly in a parking spot.
This release now means now 100% of your driving can now be done on FSD. From your driveway into a parking garage. Elon was right when he said it would feel sentient, and this isnβt even v14.2 yet.
The Tesla AI team COOKED with this update. Itβs phenomenal. Huge congrats to them for such an epic release. This is a HUGE update and I canβt wait to drive it more.
Itβs now 5am so Iβm going to attempt to get some sleep, but tons more driving and videos coming later today as soon as I can. Thanks everyone for following along.
