TESLA'S BIGGEST UPDATE IS HERE

EV Channels Review

The reviewer dives into Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) version 14, questioning its $8,000 price tag and the hype surrounding it. While acknowledging that version 14 is a significant improvement, rebuilt from the ground up with AI and machine learning for smoother, more confident decisions, the reviewer highlights that Tesla has largely abandoned traditional Autopilot. A major point of contention is the hardware disparity: Hardware 4 vehicles with more advanced cameras and a faster computer are clearly prioritized, leaving Hardware 3 owners in a difficult position with no clear upgrade path. The reviewer advises against outright purchasing FSD, suggesting that subscribing offers more flexibility and avoids the pitfalls faced by early adopters of Hardware 3. The core recommendation is to try the free trial if eligible, and for those who drive extensively and dislike driving, FSD can be valuable, but for most, subscribing is the more sensible option. The reviewer also touches on the importance of accessories and charging solutions for Tesla owners.
