Elon Musk Says Tesla FSD Beta 10.69.3 Is Actually A Big Deal

Among other things, Tesla has addressed the complaints surrounding lane changes. According to Teslarati, FSD beta testers reported issues with the previous software version, stating that, for example, the EVs would sometimes fail to get into the turn lane or would select the wrong lane for an upcoming turn. That would, understandably, be annoying at best. The latest beta addresses the complaints, however, as the release notes show adjustments and improvements that target both velocity error and lane selection. Drivers may also notice improvements when using FSD in environments that have lower-visibility conditions.

Still a fair bit of polish to be done on 69.3. It’s a major release posing as a minor release.

Of particular interest is a tweet Elon Musk published about the new software release. Twitter user “TesLatino” praised the 10.69.3 release in a tweet, saying “today has been so different, that I may actually start posting my experiences of using [FSD] again soon. Holy h*ll, it has been fantastic today.” In a response to the tweet, Musk said that the update is “a major release posing as a minor release.” He did note, however, that there is “still a fair bit of polish to be done” to version 10.69.3. Tesla owners who have FSD can read the full release notes at NotATeslaApp. It’s unclear how many Tesla EVs with FSD have received the beta, but it should be rolling out to a greater number of external testers in the coming days.
