Tesla has officially begun a wider rollout of its latest version of Full Self-Driving (FSD), known as v14, to customers outside its Early Access Program (EAP). This expansion comes as the company prepares for a comprehensive launch of the new suite, which aims to enhance the driving experience across its fleet in the United States.
Over recent weeks, Tesla focused on refining the v14 Full Self-Driving software. Initial versions of this update encountered issues, including a brake stutter that required attention. According to reports, these concerns have largely been addressed, allowing the company to proceed with the rollout. The new capabilities have garnered positive feedback from early testers, who noted improvements in how the vehicle interacts with traffic.
New Features and Improvements
The rollout of v14.1.3 started on October 19, 2025, with numerous EAP members confirming their installations. One enthusiastic owner shared, “We are SOOOO BACK! v14.1.3 installing on my 2024 Model 3!” This version introduces a new “Mad Max Speed Profile,” which has received attention for its ability to execute lane changes and maintain pace with faster traffic, offering a driving experience akin to that of a human driver.
The excitement extends beyond the Model 3, as the update is also reaching Model S and Model X vehicles. Another user reported having a disengagement-free experience during an hour-long drive with FSD v14.1.3 in a Model S, emphasizing the improvements made in this iteration.
Challenges and Future Prospects
Despite the positive advancements, one notable absence in this rollout is the Cybertruck. Tesla had indicated that v14 would be available for the Cybertruck by the end of October, but no updates have been released to confirm this timeline. This gap highlights the ongoing challenges Tesla faces as it works to ensure all its models benefit from the latest technology.
This latest rollout marks the third iteration of v14 within a two-week span, underscoring Tesla’s commitment to resolving previous issues and rapidly deploying updates to enhance user experience. As the company continues to develop its Full Self-Driving capabilities, it remains to be seen how these advancements will impact the market and consumer perception of autonomous driving technology.
