TESLAS MOST IMPORTANT RELEASE EVER FSD V14.1 TESLA RELEASES 2 NEW MODELS

EV Channels Review

The video reviews Tesla's latest 'more affordable' Model 3 and Model Y variants, alongside a deep dive into FSD v14.1. The reviewer expresses disappointment that these are not new models but de-contented variants, noting the loss of features like ambient lighting, acoustic glass, and upgraded audio systems. While the Model 3 standard is seen as a better value proposition than the Y standard due to fewer feature losses, the lack of basic lane centering on both is a significant criticism, especially given the $8,000 FSD upgrade cost. The reviewer highlights that the Model 3 standard retains matrix headlights and double-pane front glass, unlike the Model Y standard. The FSD v14.1 update is presented as the true 'needle mover,' with significant improvements in parking, navigation, and handling of edge cases, including unprotected turns and emergency vehicles. A new 'sloth' driving profile is introduced, but the removal of the 'max speed' option is a notable downside for users who prefer more control. Despite the de-contented nature of the new variants, the reviewer argues they could double Tesla's addressable market in the US, positioning them as crucial stop-gaps until the Cybertruck and unsupervised FSD are fully realized.
