- Native AI4 inputs and neural network architectures
- 4.2x data scaling
- 5x training compute scaling (enabled by the Cortex cluster)
- Reduced photon-to-control latency by 2x
- Integrated unpark, reverse, and park capabilities
- Improved reward predictions for collision avoidance
- Improved camera cleaning
- Redesigned controller for smoother, more accurate tracking
- Dynamic routing around road closures, which displays them along an affected route when they are detected by the fleet
Upcoming Improvements:
- 3x model size scaling
- 3x model context length scaling
- Audio inputs for better handling of emergency vehicles
- Improved reward predictions for navigation
- Improvements to false braking and slower driving in parking lots
- Support for destination options including pulling over, parking in a spot, driveway, or garage

Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Down Under (part of 2026.2.6.5)

Under your supervision, Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Down Under can drive your Tesla almost anywhere. It will make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects, and make left and right turns. You and anyone you authorise must use additional caution and remain attentive. It does not make your vehicle autonomous. Do not become complacent.
Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Down Under is enabled on your vehicle. To use the feature, press the right scroll wheel button once. You can disable Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Down Under in Autopilot Settings.
Be aware of road conditions or hazards (such as pot holes and speed bumps) and operate the vehicle responsibly under all circumstances.

2026.2.6.5 Vision-Based Attention Monitoring

Vision-Based Attention Monitoring (part of 2026.2.6.5)

When Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is enabled, the driver monitoring system primarily relies on the cabin camera to determine driver attentiveness. Cabin camera must have clear visibility (e.g., camera is not occluded, eyes, arms, are visible, there is sufficient cabin illumination, and the driver is looking forward at the road without sunglasses, or other objects covering their eyes). In other circumstances, the driver monitoring system will primarily rely on torque-based (steering wheel) monitoring to detect driver attentiveness.
If the cabin camera detects inattentiveness, a warning will appear. The warning can be dismissed by the driver immediately reverting their attention back to the road ahead. Warnings will escalate depending on the nature and frequency of detected inattentiveness, with continuous inattention leading to a Strikeout.

2026.2 Unlatching Charge Cable

Unlatching Charge Cable (part of 2026.2.3)

Charging can now be stopped and the charge cable released by pulling and holding the rear left door handle for 3 seconds, provided the vehicle is unlocked or a recognized key is nearby. This is especially useful when the charge cable unlatch button does not work or a charging adapter is stuck in the charge port. You can still release the cable using the vehicle touchscreen or the Tesla app.

Child Left Alone Detection (part of 2026.2.3)

If an unattended child is detected, the vehicle will flash the exterior indicator lights, play an alert tone, and send a notification to your Tesla app. This will repeat at regular intervals until you return to your vehicle. Cabin data is processed locally and is not transmitted to Tesla.

This feature is enabled by default. To disable, go to Controls > Safety > Child Left Alone Detection.
