Electric Man - Drive Electric !

@dari0x @teslascope It would be very easy for Tesla to develop a HW4 drop in replacement, even for a modest fee.

@teslascope I don't get it. If you truly want FSD. Why not just pay for the HW4 retrofit? Maybe Tesla should just offer it for half the price.

We now have more confirmation that Full Self-Driving (Supervised) in Netherlands is for AI4 vehicles only at this time. This means that HW3 vehicles in the European Union will either have to wait for the release of V14 Lite or a future hardware upgrade to access FSD.

@JonBbC_TechGeek Yeah, we need a guy on the HW3 side to keep giving us info and hope.

These comments on my video make me want to cry w/ happiness. 🥹🥹🥹 This is why I do what I do. 💕 ❤️ Thank you so much for making my day. 🫶

@Kane_Madisonian @tesla_jokes They would if it drove all the illegal immigrants in from France.

@tesla_jokes You think Labour are approving FSD supervised lol

UK Tesla FSD Approval: The general feeling is that FSD will be approved in the UK between this summer and January next year. We are estimating January at notanfsdtracker.com Either way this isn't that far away! What do you think?

@tesla_jokes Can't come quick enough if you ask me. Whether it will arrive before 2027 is slim though in my opinion.

@WG_Mojo @tesla_jokes @grok I think so, both HW3 and 4 provided the new distilled down version of 14 works.

@tesla_jokes @grok isnt the UK governments plan to approve it in 2027?

Be honest: When do you expect FSD Supervised to land in the 🇬🇧 UK ? A) By summer B) By autumn C) Not until 2027 D) Already have it via cheat device😂

@teslascope @koby_pierce Inthink Koby just posts what he thinks and hops as a fact. Shame really.

@koby_pierce Nothing to do with Employees and Early Access, just a general release in a small wave so far. :)

Several reports coming in of Tesla AI/HW3 Employees and Early Access getting 2026.8.6.1 This update follows the last minute revoking of the 2026.8.6 version due to issues with reverse camera activation on some vehicles. We hope to also see a potential fix to break stabbing.

@koby_pierce Who this we ? Where do you get your information ? Do you just post what you think as a fact ?

@TSLA_inside_ As an intel hw3 owner, I now expect nothing.

🚗✨ Who else is excited for the Tesla Spring Update this year? Last year the Spring Update (2025.14) was announced on April 12 with cool new features like adaptive headlights, B-pillar camera recordings.. Super curious what they’ll bring this time! What features are you hoping for? 👀 #Tesla #SpringUpdate #Cybertruck #ModelY #Model3 $TSLA

@kitt_2020 @thommcg1980 @tpgoebel Grok is not always accurate. FSD will need type approval for behaviour changes. All that means is that when tesla wants to add a new feature to consumer cars, it will be tested first. As for general improvement probably not, but we will find out soon enough.

Below is Grok's explanation about Shadow mode. The car has to be driven manually while FSD runs in the background. Also, I asked Grok if Tesla’s Shadow Mode can be used to validate FSD performance to a significant degree. It says that..... .. "Yes, Tesla’s Shadow Mode can be used to validate FSD performance to a significant degree. It runs the new FSD version silently in the background on customer cars and compares its decisions with the human driver. When there’s a big difference, it automatically saves clips for Tesla to analyze. This allows Tesla to test and improve FSD safely using millions of real-world miles before official release. However, it’s not perfect — regulators often still require real supervised driving data for final approval."

Does Tesla need a recertification of every future FSD update in the Netherlands now? Here’s how I understand the situation to be. TL;DR: Bug fixes or UI changes will not need a new approval. But changes to the car’s behavior will. In the US, the system is more liberal, and Tesla can self-certify and push OTA updates as much as they want. NHTSA then checks after the fact if it finds any problems. Very American. In the EU under the UNECE regulations, Tesla needs to provide significant telemetry data for any update that changes the car’s behavior. RDW will do a delta check on what’s new. This will not take 18 months each and every time – but people in Europe will not see updates as frequently as we have here in the US over the last few years. On the flipside, Europeans will benefit from fairly polished versions every time they get a new update. Here in the US, we have been suffering through many setbacks and regressions over the years.

@dtweetsss1 @Gjeebs I read that somewhere but don't know if its true. Seems unlikely to me.

@Gjeebs yeslak.com/blogs/tesla-ne… No, HW4.5 isn’t real and eas confirmed as a misprinted label.

Is it true that HW4.5 is a 3 soc system in Model Y's compared to 2 soc?

@JonBbC_TechGeek @zaneccampbell No, Grok is nothing more than an advanced search assistant that regurgitates what it sees on the net and reports it as fact.

Hmm, do you really trust Grok with stuff like that? 🤔 I don’t. Tesla keeps that sort of info super secret and never shares any details. So Grok has to sort through tons of speculation from random people on the internet who think and feel it’s been changing. Did Grok point to reputable sources? I agree with the wild differences in opinion on how good or bad it is! 😆

FSD slams on the brakes for a cat in the road that doesn’t even exist. This is FSD 12.6.4 on HW3, which is a lot more sensitive to shadows & objects in the road with the 2026.8.6 update. There are many reports of brake stabbing. It brings me back to the days when I was testing with v10.3 of FSD back in 2021. It’s interesting that it’s the same FSD version as before, and not something like 12.6.4.1, but I guess Tesla can change the weights without changing the version. And they’ve likely been doing this for a while with 12.6.4. 😒

@JonBbC_TechGeek I get the feeling that the MCU software greatly influences the FSD behaviour. I think it's a combination of both systems that decide what it does, and how it does it.

@RoccoSperanza @Volts_PC I agree. Every time I think something has changed or fixed, its back to normal soon after, lighting and weather make a huge difference.

@Volts_PC More than likely, it’s map data and weather that has made a perceivable change.

Not to give up anyone’s hopes, I’ve noticed zero differences since 12.3 came out. This build doesn’t affect FSD beyond placebo.

@koby_pierce @calvintx1 Show us a picture of your weights

@calvintx1 What makes you think that? At least present some facts to prove me wrong.

THIS IS THE BIGGEST HW3 update we’ve had in MONTHS. 2026.8.6 is not one build. From what I’ve seen across multiple cars, there appear to be 3 variants: 2026.8.6-A, B, and C. My car is on A, and it feels significantly improved. I’m doing 10+ hours of testing tomorrow to learn more. Here are a few confirmed changes: - Reduced Vision Monitoring (seen in A, B, and C) - Improvements to lane selection (A) - Overall smoothness improvement (A) - Roughly 15 to 25% latency reduction (A) - Matches Tentacle Speed to AI4 (the future prediction blue line is smoother and reacts faster, seems to be on A, potentially C as well) - MAJORLY improved “off-road” performance (more confident starting on rock or grass and finding the road without accelerator presses) - Obstacle avoidance improvements Let me know if any of you experience these as well, and check your service mode for your Bank A, B, Trip Weights and AP weights, make sure to leave them in your comment. #2026.8.6 #HW3 #FSD

@spleck @koby_pierce @HerrLinder @jchybow Yes I was wondering this too. Seems everyone's is the same, except this magical A that no one has seen and posted evidence for.

@koby_pierce @HerrLinder @jchybow Why not just post yours? You said you have A. This is B. What is the A value?

@MrCoryB @Tesla_AI @transportgovuk @Heidi_Labour Until Tesla apply for it, its not going to happen. We have our own version of the RDW.

@Tesla_AI We need authorisation for an FSD supervised roll out in the UK asap for our own safety @transportgovuk @Heidi_Labour 🙏

Teslas in the Netherlands rn

@Deandawiz Just asking, but what makes you think and say this?

Hot take: If v14 lite is imminent for Europe and qualifies as safe under the same approval that v14 did that means Tesla deems it just as safe as v14 is!! v14 lite is the update that HW3 owners who purchased FSD in full deserve and I believe those who stuck it out will be really satisfied with the update. The ones who won’t be satisfied are the miserable fucks who will complain that its not unsupervised. But the ones who are open minded will absolutely love v14 lite!

@Rustavi No its not, its in the Netherlands, and the EU. NOT ALL EUROPE WILL GET IT. The UK and Switzerland are Europe and NOT EU.

🚨 Tesla FSD (Supervised) is HERE in Europe! 🔥 Your car will soon drive almost everywhere with minimal driver input! 🇳🇱 Pricing in the Netherlands: • €99 / month subscription • Or €7,500 one-time purchase ⚠️ Important: This is Supervised only. The driver must stay alert and fully responsible at all times. The car is not autonomous. Ready to upgrade your Tesla? “Later toevoegen” is waiting in your app 👀 What would you choose, monthly or buy once? #Tesla #FSD #FullSelfDriving #EV #Netherlands

@TeslaNewswire Not European. Member EU states, christ, when will you idiots learn.

European Tesla owners, will you subscribe to FSD (Supervised) for €99 per month? (€49/month for EAP owners)

@WarrenWhyteUK @Tesla So I gave up reading the drivel posts here. The reason the UK has not approved FSD, is because Tesla has not approached the UK's VCA which is required as the very first step. The VCA is the UK's RDW. Tesla decided to go for the bigger market first plus the UK is RHD.

Interesting late night news from @Tesla and FSD in the Netherlands. Still can’t quite understand why the UK government has sat on its hands.
