Some Cybertrucks can finally use Tesla’s Supervised Full Self-Driving software, almost exactly ten months after the vehicle was first released.
After many delays and much anticipation, the first Tesla Cybertruck deliveries occurred on November 30, 2023.
However, one feature was missing from those cars – Tesla’s much-ballyhooed Full Self-Driving (FSD) software.
Previous vehicles released by Tesla, like the Model 3 and Model Y, have had access to modern versions of Tesla’s Autopilot or FSD software immediately upon release. However, those vehicles have relatively similar sizes, sensor suites and control mechanisms as other Tesla vehicles, meaning there aren’t a lot of changes needed to the software to make them work.
The Cybertruck, however, is quite different than any other vehicle Tesla has made – or any other vehicle on the road, for that matter.
So, when the Cybertruck first came out, it was notably missing access to this major feature. Tesla was happy to sell FSD access to owners, but it came with an asterisk that the driver-assist system could not be activated until further notice from Tesla.
Well, now that time is here, and Cybertrucks finally have access to the software they’ve been waiting for. Well, some of them do, anyway.
According to a post on cybertruckownersclub forum, some users have started getting access to FSD (Supervised) as of today, with the 2024.32.20 update.
This update is labeled as “early access,” which means that only a subset of owners who have been invited into the early access program will have access to it for the time being. We’re not sure when a wider release of the software will happen for other Cybertruck owners, but it should be some time in the next several weeks.
It’s also labeled as FSD 12.5.5, which is the newest version of FSD available. Currently, most Tesla cars are on FSD 12.5.4 – so these early-access Cybertrucks aren’t stuck on an old version, but instead are getting the latest and greatest (or, well, “greatest“).
The first videos of Cybertrucks with FSD are starting to leak out, with this forum post seeming to be the absolute first on the internet, so far.
