FSD (Supervised)

Added in 2026.21.100

Under your supervision, FSD (Supervised) can drive your Tesla almost anywhere. It will start from a parked position, make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects, make left and right turns and stop at your destination. You and anyone you authorize must use additional caution and remain attentive. It does not make your vehicle autonomous. Do not become complacent.

FSD (Supervised) is enabled on your vehicle. To use the feature, first watch the tutorial and take the quiz, available in the new Self-Driving App or in Control > Self-Driving. Then press the Start FSD (Supervised) button on the UI, or press the right scroll wheel button once. You can disable FSD (Supervised) in Self-Driving Settings.

FSD (Supervised) v14.1 Lite

Added in 2026.21.6

FSD (Supervised) v14.1 Lite includes:

  • Distilled the intelligence from HW4 V14 into HW3. This allows HW3 to directly learn how to handle scenarios using HW4 V14 as a guide. This process unlocks the improvements that have been made to HW4 including Reinforcement Learning (RL) and offline models for HW3.
  • Improved both proactive and reactive responsiveness across a wide variety of categories including navigation handling, merges and forks, pedestrian interactions, traffic lights, and vehicle cut-in scenarios.
  • Improved general comfort in nominal scenarios through fewer false slowdowns, smoother steering and more consistent lane centering.
  • Introduced parking, unparking, and reversing capabilities.
  • Added Arrival Options for you to select where FSD should pull over or park: in a Parking Lot, on the Street, in a Driveway.
  • Speed Profiles are now available at all times, to further customize driving style preference.

  • Improved handling of small animals by focusing RL training on harder examples and adding rewards for better proactive safety.
  • Improved traffic light handling at complex intersections with compound lights, curved roads, and yellow light stopping — driven by training on hard RL examples sourced from the Tesla fleet.
  • Improved handling for rare and unusual objects extending, hanging, or leaning into the vehicle path by sourcing infrequent events from the fleet.
  • Improved handling of temporary system degradations by maintaining control and automatically recovering without driver intervention, reducing unnecessary disengagements.
  • Improved driver monitoring system sensitivity with better eye gaze tracking, eye wear handling, and higher accuracy in variable lighting conditions.
  • Unified the model between Actually Smart Summon, FSD, and Robotaxi for more capable and reliable behavior.
  • Help Tesla improve Self-Driving by selecting an intervention reason on the main screen after taking over.
  • You can now see distance traveled in FSD (Supervised) without an intervention. The Self-Driving App will also show your longest intervention-free streak.

Upcoming Improvements:

  • Expand reasoning to all behaviors beyond destination handling.
  • Add pothole avoidance.
