Tesla FSD v12.5 is Currently Rolling Out to More Customers: Redefining Autonomous Driving Experience

Tesla FSD v12.5

Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) has taken a significant stride forward with the release of version 12.5. This update, currently rolling out to an expanding customer base, promises to redefine the autonomous driving experience. There’s key improvements and what they mean for Tesla owners.

Tesla FSD test blogger AIDRIVR reports, “The delicacy FSD 12.5 has with the steering wheel is seriously next level. It’s hard to get across on video, but this is already smoother than any Uber I’ve ridden in.” This statement underscores the remarkable progress in handling and ride comfort.

What’s New in FSD v12.5?

  • Enhanced Lane Change Decisions, The system now makes earlier and more natural lane change decisions, potentially reducing driver intervention.
  • Advanced Driver Monitoring, A vision-only driver monitoring system that works with sunglasses enhances safety without compromising comfort.
  • Highway Mastery, End-to-End functionality on highways suggests a more cohesive and seamless driving experience.
  • Cybertruck Compatibility, FSD capability is coming to Tesla’s futuristic Cybertruck, expanding the reach of this technology.

Elon states, “We think customers will experience a step change in how FSD works.” This bold claim sets high expectations for the update’s performance.

Ashok Elluswamy, head of Autopilot and AI at Tesla, shares a X posts: “There was a huge focus on improving both safety AND smoothness in this release. One of my personal tests is to not spill an open cup of coffee while on FSD. 12.5 was the first version where I was able to do that for 30 min long drives.”

With over 1.6 billion FSD miles logged, Tesla continues to refine its autonomous driving technology. As FSD v12.5 reaches more customers, it’s clear that Tesla is driving towards a future where autonomous vehicles are not just a possibility, but a smooth reality.
