@wholemars Looking at old data I have. HW3 production ran for about 4 years. 2019-2022. That's about 3.2M cars that can add FSD. Take rates were reported to be much higher back then when we thought FSD would be solved much sooner. I estimated 1.3M bought full purchase.
There are probably around 3.5 million hardware 3 Teslas worldwide.
Bringing V14 to these cars will be an absolutely huge deal. Millions of people will get to experience what the latest FSD is capable of.
@wholemars Out of those 3.5 millions, only less than 10% of them purchased FSD. The majority is those 90%! They are all excited to get V14 lite! Thatโs it, end of the story!
@ElectricRaph Iโm the hw3 owner, why would I get frustrated when we will get v14 lite in 2 months, everyone is so excited! Simply speaking, there are over 3 million hw3 cars in the world, and more than 90% didnโt purchased FSD, and we can subscribe v14 lite in 2 months!
To all HW3 owners, I understand your frustration. I see many people saying that itโs a lie from Elon and Tesla, etc., but I believe rather that I wouldnโt call it a lie. Iโd rather say itโs an overestimation on the part of Elon and Tesla.
We also have to remember that vision-based autonomous driving is a new technology, so itโs difficult to predict. Nevertheless, I still find it honest of them to propose several solutions to remedy it.
@DevinOlsenn Over 3 million hw3 cars in the world, and more than 90% of them didnโt purchased FSD, and everyone is excited to get the upcoming V14 Lite for HW3!
@TeslaTrackerUS Donโt forget the fact that 99% of HW3 owners around the world didnโt purchased FSD, We can enjoy the upcoming V14 lite FSD, who cares if itโs Unsupervised.
๐ง HW3 Tesla owners now have 2 paths
โข Tesla now says HW3 cannot achieve Unsupervised FSD
โข FSD buyers are being offered a discounted trade-in into an AI4 vehicle, plus FSD transfer
โข That moves the issue from software timing to a hard compute ceiling
I have HW3 Tesla in New Zealand, Iโm so happy that V14 Lite confirmed roll out in late June this year! Iโm sure New Zealand and Australia will essentially get V14 lite for all HW3 teslas!
