TESLA UPDATED FSD SO I TESTED ALL 4 FEATURES - THIS IS HOW THEY WORK

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides an in-depth look at Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system, testing its four core features: Dumb Summon, Smart Summon, Self-Park, and the main FSD driving capability. Dumb Summon is praised for its perfect functionality, especially in tight spots or when the car is blocked in. Smart Summon, however, proved problematic during testing, failing to find a clear path and experiencing multiple summon failures, leading the reviewer to deem it 'acted a little dumb today.' The Self-Park feature is demonstrated to work effectively, backing the car into a spot, though it's noted to only work at 8 mph or less and currently only parks in reverse. The main FSD driving experience is described as clunky in parking lots but impressive on highways, with natural merging and lane changes. A significant positive is the apparent elimination of phantom braking, a common past issue. The system's ability to navigate complex exits and its reliance on vision-only input are highlighted. The reviewer concludes that while FSD is still a work in progress, especially in urban environments, it's a fascinating and advanced system, potentially worth the subscription for road trips. The video also touches on the cabin camera's role in monitoring the driver and the system's limitations, such as occasional speed drift and the need for driver supervision.
