Great FSD v14 lite drive. Zero interventions from Century City to the Pacific Palisades. Such smooth driving, it feels like it has the DNA of v14 on AI4. Lane changes are buttery smooth, and acceleration/braking inputs are very refined.

Really impressive first few drives with FSD v14 lite! Big leap in capability and feature set from v12.6.4, it’s tuned for safety right now so it’s taking things slow and smoothly. Highway performance was notably great. More videos and a very long form review later once I get a few more hours of driving in.

FSD v14 Lite is now rolling out to AI3 early-access customers. Based on the feedback, will rollout to more customers over the next few weeks. This build distills the driving behavior from AI4’s v14 series into both the camera and compute config of AI3. It includes destination options and speed profiles on city roads, but more importantly significantly improved safety. We hope you’ll enjoy it, once the build ships wide.

Once you go Tesla FSD, it’s honestly almost impossible to go back to anything else. You start noticing how much mental energy normal driving takes. With FSD handling the driving, I can actually enjoy the scenery, have real conversations with my family, listen to podcasts without constantly scanning every mirror, and arrive feeling more relaxed instead of mentally drained. The biggest difference, though, is the stress… which believe it or not takes a major toll on your health over time. Long road trips that used to leave me exhausted now feel peaceful. Stop-and-go traffic isn’t something I dread anymore. It just becomes part of the ride. And from a safety perspective, I think this is where the technology matters most. Tesla’s FSD is always paying attention. It doesn’t get tired, distracted by a phone, or drive under the influence. It uses cameras and AI to monitor everything around the car at the same time, hundreds of times every second. That’s a huge reason why I believe this technology will prevent countless accidents over time. I’ve been using Tesla FSD every day since the beta launch in 2020, and seeing how far it’s come has been incredible. Every major update has made it feel more natural, more confident, and more capable. Once you experience it for yourself, you start thinking differently of all the possibilities of what driving really means… I genuinely believe this is one of the most consequential technologies of our time. FSD is priceless.

In IIHS pedestrian front crash prevention tests, @Cybertruck avoided every single collision – daytime, nighttime & different angles   It was also the only pickup to earn Top Safety Pick+ (highest award) in 2026

This blatantly irresponsible reporting does more harm to people than they realize. Using Tesla self-driving is far safer than manual driving, and this was measured over 10B miles. Planting such FUD in the minds of general public, who might not know the all the facts, might prevent them from using this technology that makes them safer.

@elonmusk @kylaschwaberow Yup. In this case, the driver manually overrode self-driving by pressing the accelerator all the way to 100% of the accel pedal in this residential area. They reached a speed of 73 mph during the crash, and had the accelerator pressed even after the crash.

Upcoming releases of FSD will remember your parking preferences, so that the car goes to the right location at your home, office, school drop off, etc. Destination parking is by far the biggest reason people now intervene with FSD. Critical safety interventions are extremely rare.
