Tesla Cybertrucks, known for their futuristic design and impressive performance, are now receiving a major upgrade in the form of Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology. This update has been long-awaited by members of the Cybertruck Owners Club forum and has finally started rolling out to some lucky owners.
Despite previous delays, Tesla managed to meet its target date for the FSD rollout, getting it out to Cybertruck owners just in time. The latest version of FSD, 12.5.5, is currently available for Cybertrucks participating in the early access program. This update includes features such as a vision-based attention monitoring system for drivers wearing sunglasses, as well as an “End to End” function on highways, which aims to enhance the driving experience.
In addition to these new features, the FSD system in Cybertrucks also offers improvements in various areas such as making earlier and more natural lane change decisions, enhanced performance in parking lots, smoother performance at intersections and stops, and the introduction of Speed Profile. However, users are reminded that this is an early access build and caution should always be exercised, as the system does not make the vehicle fully autonomous.
A video posted by a social media user known as That Whole Mars Catalog showed the new FSD update in action in a Cybertruck. While the system seemed to work well for the most part, there was one instance where the driver had to intervene to prevent the truck from driving into a median after a left turn at an intersection. This serves as a reminder that even with advanced technology like FSD, drivers must remain attentive and ready to take control if needed.
Overall, the addition of Full Self-Driving technology to Tesla Cybertrucks marks a significant milestone in the evolution of autonomous driving capabilities. With these new features and enhancements, Cybertruck owners can now enjoy a more advanced and streamlined driving experience, all while maintaining a sense of caution and responsibility behind the wheel. As technology continues to advance, it will be interesting to see how self-driving capabilities further develop and improve in the future.
