CORE TECHNOLOGY
Artificial Intelligence Software and Hardware
In Q4, we released our latest FSD Beta software (V12) to select Tesla employees,
and more recently, to customers. V12 utilizes end-to-end training, enhancing the
driving experience. We also introduced the 2nd generation of the Optimus robot,
which uses Tesla-designed actuators and sensors and improved Al capabilities.
Both FSD Beta and Optimus are trained with similar technology pillars: real-world
data, neural net training and cutting-edge hardware and software.
Vehicle and Other Software
We delivered the Cybertruck with an all-new user interface and new communication
bus, Etherloop, that efficiently moves data while significantly reducing wiring. As
part of our holiday update, when parking, Tesla vehicles without ultrasonic sensors
display a high-fidelity 3D rendering of the vehicle's surroundings, including nearby
barriers, vehicles and painted markings. Wireless Bluetooth headphones can also
now be paired with the rear screen when watching shows or playing games.
FleetAPI now enables third-party solutions that enhance integration and
management of Tesla devices.
Battery, Powertrain & Manufacturing
Cost of goods sold per vehicle declined sequentially to slightly above $36,000.
Even as we approach the natural limit of cost down of our existing vehicle lineup,
our team continues to focus on further cost reductions across all points of
production, from raw materials to final delivery.
