I just got access to @Waymo freeway access, so I decided to see how much it would cost to go from one side of the geofence to the other.. and it’s actually the least expensive against the other ride-shares! Waymo: $36 Lyft: $42 + Tip Uber: $73 + Top

BREAKING: The U.S. Government has officially announced that @Tesla and LG ​Energy have signed an agreement to ‌build a $4.3 billion lithium iron phosphate (LFP) prismatic battery cell manufacturing factory in Lansing, Michigan, with a 2027 start of production. "American-made cells will power Tesla's Megapack 3 energy storage systems produced in Houston, creating a robust domestic battery supply chain," the U.S. Department of the Interior said in a statement. Here's everything you need to know about Tesla's new Megablock, the latest in the company's industrial storage product lineup, which includes the new Megapack version 3: Megablock: • 23% faster to install with up to 40% lower construction costs • Plug and play platform (hardware, software and services) delivered as one all from Tesla. It's a pre-engineered medium-voltage block that integrates next-gen Megapack 3 • Eliminated above ground cabling between the transformer and the megapacks using new flexible busbar assembly • 91% MV round trip efficiency • 20 MWh of usable AC energy • Operates in temps of -40°C (-40°F) to 60°C (140°F) • 248 MWh per acre • 25-year life & >10,000 cycles • With Megablock, Tesla is targeting to commission 1GWh in 20 business days, equivalent to bringing power to 400,000 homes in less than month Megapack 3: • Will be manufactured in Tesla's upcoming Houston Megafactory starting in late 2026. 50 GWh annual manufacturing capacity when fully ramped. • 5 MWh of usable AC energy • Weight: 86,000 lbs • 28 foot long enclosure that can be shipped globally • Optimized for up to 8-hour applications • New drastically simplified thermal bay. Uses Model Y heat pump, but on steroids. 78% fewer connections, which minimizes failure points • Larger battery module and larger battery cell • 2.8 liter battery cell, co-engineered with Tesla's cell team • LFP battery • Operates in -40°C to 60° • Went from 24 cable connections in Megapack version 2XL, down to 3 simple busbar connections • 75% of the mass of Megapack 3 is battery cells. • A single module in it weighs as much as a Cybertruck • Tesla has enabled easier front access service, so there are no roof penetrations • Drastically simplified bussing system

@Ghizmauve @FredLambert AI3

@FredLambert Any idea if it's HW4 or HW3? Not an excuse, but HW4 would be so worse as it's used in FSD Robotaxi.

A Threads user named Laushi Liu posted dashcam footage from his Tesla Model 3 on Sunday, March 8, showing the vehicle on “Full Self-Driving” mode at 23 mph near West Covina, California. In the video, the car approaches a railroad crossing where barriers have just come down — and drives straight through them. The timing is almost poetic: this video drops the day Tesla is supposed to finally hand NHTSA the data from its FSD violation investigation, after two deadline extensions. We’ll be watching to see whether Tesla actually delivers, and what that data reveals about just how common these railroad crossing failures really are.

@tylercorsair @teslascope First Tesla was Eevee, 2nd is Jolteon!

Pokémon will forever be special to me, as I was born the day Pocket Monsters Green and Red were first released in Japan on February 27, 1996. On @teslascope, hundreds of Tesla owners have named their vehicles based on Pokémon (such as Jolteon, Pikachu, etc.). ⚡

BREAKING: The estimated delivery date for new $59,999 Cybertruck dual-motor AWD orders in the U.S. has changed to April 2027 (from Sept-Oct 2026 before) due to strong demand. The estimated delivery date was June 2026 just a few days ago. Now it’s a ~14 month wait time for new orders 🤯

Model Y on FSD (Supervised) v14.2.2.5 identifies a possible collision ahead of the car in front of it and reacts accordingly.

BREAKING: Tesla has introduced a new dual-motor AWD Cybertruck trim for $59,990, its most affordable trim yet. • 325 mile range • 7,500 lb towing capacity • 0-60mph: 4.1s • Bed with motorized tonneau cover • Bed Outlets (2-120v, 1-240v) • 325kW max charging speed • Coil spring with adaptive damping • Durable textile interior • 18’’ Wheels with all-season tires • 10" ground clearance • Weight: 6,537 lbs • Same 18.5" center display as other tires. No 9" rear screen

@teslascope Got it!

A new wave of Full Self-Driving V14.2.2.5 via Tesla software update 2025.45.10 went out within the past half an hour.

@MissJilianne @99_Colorado You can independently choose whether you want limited speed and or limited acceleration! You can have standard acceleration but limited top speed now

@99_Colorado You are 100% spot on! Limiting the speed on a Tesla also limits acceleration and that’s the dangerous part.

As a parent, I can’t stress enough DO NOT LIMIT YOUR TEENS SPEED. Where it sounds like a good idea, imagine something happens to your kid because they couldn’t accelerate away from an out of control car. There are many scenarios where they might need to accelerate, think wisely.

Model S & X are great cars! Order yours before we sunset the program in a few months. Tesla.com

No better view on FSD in a new Model 3 than a SpaceX launch

It’s delivery day — congratulations to my mom on her brand new Model Y! Delivery day for the Model S soon after!

NEWS: Tesla has filed new trademark applications for its next-generation Roadster, hinting that the unveil is drawing closer. The first application includes a stylized “Roadster” wordmark, while the second includes what seems to be the Roadster’s new design. USPTO filings below:

@imstartingover1 They probably just haven’t moved the factory builds onto an update that includes V14 yet. But hopefully you can receive the latest update within a couple weeks max!!

@BabyTesla3 Just received a new model Y with version 13.2. Why do you reckon they’re delivering with this older version?

Got FSD V14.2.2.4 earlier today! I’ll report back if I notice any significant changes

BREAKING: Elon Musk’s companies, SpaceX and xAI, are officially merging. A newly updated business filing in Nevada list the business name as K2 MERGER SUB 2. K2 means Kardashev type 2 civilization 😎 Tesla will now own $2B of this merged company.
