Overview

• Elon Musk said on X that FSD v14.0 enters early wide release next week, with v14.1 roughly two weeks later and v14.2 thereafter.
• Tesla touts v14 as a significant AI step with about a tenfold increase in neural‑network parameters, and Musk says vehicles could feel nearly "sentient" by v14.2.
• The company plans to deliver the updates over the air in staged software releases.
• Federal scrutiny continues as NHTSA investigates potential delays in Tesla’s crash reporting for advanced driver‑assistance and self‑driving incidents.
• Availability varies by market, with HW4‑only launches in Australia and New Zealand and Enhanced Autopilot discontinued there, European approvals still pending, lawsuits from some customers in China as Tesla seeks a broader release, and U.S. pricing at $8,000 or $99 per month.
