In a significant development for Tesla enthusiasts and the broader automotive industry, Tesla has begun the rollout of its highly anticipated Full Self-Driving (FSD) version 12.5. This latest update marks a significant milestone in Tesla’s quest to achieve fully autonomous driving capabilities.

FSD 12.5 is now being released to a select group of Tesla employees and select regular customers with Hardware 4, signaling the beginning of a broader rollout to the general public. This update brings a host of improvements and new features that are set to revolutionize the driving experience for Tesla owners.

One of the most notable advancements in FSD 12.5 is the integration of a single end-to-end neural network for both city and highway driving. This means that the system will be able to handle complex urban environments and high-speed highways with a single, unified approach, making it more efficient and reliable.

The update also includes enhancements to the Autopilot system, such as a more prominent warning display for inattentive drivers and a new green dot indicator that shows when the camera is monitoring the driver’s attention. 

Another significant aspect of FSD 12.5 is the inclusion of the latest Tesla software update, 2024.20.10. This update brings a range of new features, including power front door functionality improvements for Model X, improved headlights that adapt to curves, and enhanced security.

While the rollout of FSD 12.5 is currently limited to Tesla employees and select regular customers with Hardware 4, this initial rollout indicates that it will be made available to a wider audience in the coming weeks. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been actively sharing updates and insights about the rollout on X, providing a glimpse into the progress being made.

As the rollout of FSD 12.5 continues, Tesla owners can expect to receive the update in the near future, bringing them one step closer to a truly autonomous driving experience. With each new iteration, Tesla is pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the world of autonomous driving, and FSD 12.5 is a testament to the company’s commitment to innovation and safety.
