TESLA FINALLY BRINGS FREE UPGRADES FOR ALL OWNERS

EV Channels Review

Tesla's annual shareholder event brought several key announcements, including the upcoming Cybertruck production start in April 2026, with a focus on autonomous capabilities, potentially without traditional controls. The robo-taxi service is expanding to new cities, and a significant software update, FSD 14, is rolling out, enabling texting while FSD is active. Tesla is also introducing the ability to gift FSD subscriptions and offering free trials for non-owners. A notable promotion offers one free exterior or interior upgrade on leased Model 3 and Model Y vehicles (excluding Performance and Standard trims), which can be stacked with other incentives. The company is also progressing on future hardware (versions 5-8) and battery technology, with potential for increased range from suppliers like Panasonic. App updates include a new charging tab and upcoming extended warranty options, signaling a move towards subscription-based services. While no new, cheaper models were announced, the video highlights the Luba Mini electric lawnmower as an innovative EV alternative.
