CORE TECHNOLOGY
Autopilot & Full Self Driving (FSD)
We enabled stop sign and traffic light recognition and braking for our Early
Access Program users at the end of Q1 and to the wider public in April 2020.
As we have done with previous releases of major new features, drivers will be
required to confirm their attention in order to continue. Once enough real-
world data is collected, the system will become more capable and our vehicles
will continue driving through intersections without a confirmation.
Vehicle Software
Among many other security and functionality improvements, we launched
"DashCam Viewer". Many customers have been requesting the possibility to
view footage recorded by Autopilot cameras directly on the car screen. With
the latest software update, our users can now view their Sentry Mode videos
from all four angles (front, back, left & right cameras). That way, Tesla owners
know right away if the Sentry Mode recording requires further attention.
Battery & Powertrain
The maximum range of both Model S and Model X has been extended further,
even without increasing the size of the battery pack. Customers consider long
range as one of the most important factors when switching from a combustion
engine vehicle to an EV, and our lead has continued to increase, with 391 miles
for Model S and 351 miles for Model X.
We recently introduced the new heat pump system, including the octovalve
for Model Y, which allowed us to reach similar EPA range to Model 3 while
being -10% heavier.
