TESLA FSD BETA 10.2 | FIRST DRIVE - CONSTRUCTION, ROUNDABOUTS, HAIRPINS & MORE

EV Channels Review

In this video, Rob Maurer provides an in-depth first drive of Tesla's FSD Beta 10.2, focusing on its performance in complex urban environments including construction zones, roundabouts, and challenging lane markings. Maurer highlights improvements in visualization, noting crisper lines and increased confidence in rendering. However, the beta still struggles with certain edge cases, notably a difficult construction zone where it repeatedly disengaged or required intervention. The reviewer also points out instances where the system hesitated at flashing red lights, though it showed improvement in recognizing them compared to previous versions. Despite these challenges, Maurer emphasizes that FSD Beta offers significant value in normal driving scenarios, often performing flawlessly without intervention. He concludes that while not yet a Level 4/5 system, the improvements in visualization and handling of common situations make it a valuable tool, though further testing with more traffic is needed to assess long-term progress.
