HACKER LEAKS TESLA SELF DRIVING SOFTWARE

EV Channels Review

This video delves into several significant Tesla developments, including the controversial leak of the Full Self-Driving (FSD) beta software, which has allowed non-beta testers to access and run the system. The review highlights Edmunds' surprisingly harsh critique of the Model S Plaid, labeling it a "marketing exercise" despite its record-breaking performance, and contrasts this with the host's positive personal experience with the yoke steering. A major focus is placed on Tesla's ongoing struggle with parts shortages, evidenced by a leaked internal email from Elon Musk detailing the "hardcore and challenging" Q3 delivery wave, leading to cars being built with missing parts for later installation. The video also touches upon Tesla's innovative spirit with a patent for laser windshield wipers and the strategic importance of Samsung's new chip plant near Gigafactory Texas. Finally, it previews Mercedes-Benz's upcoming electric lineup, including the EQB, EQE, EQG, and Maybach EQS concept, positioning them as potential competitors in the EV market.
