Buyers who paid at least $93,990 (and beta testing) of Tesla Cyber truck they finally get the key, promised feature: Full Self-Driving (FSD). Several people on the Cybertruck Owners Club forum, including an Angeleno posted a video – finally say it’s coming to early access for select users, Electrek informed.
After Tesla promised Version 12.5.5 v12 (latest available) is shipping, with FSD tracking to hit Cybertrucks in September, but only for users in the early access program. That means the feature (included in the Tesla Cybertruck Foundation package) won’t be available to most buyers for at least a month, based on Tesla’s previous FSD history.
According to Cybertruck Owner’s Club forum user espresso-drumbeat video above, the FSD ran smoothly during the short time it was on display. He drove his car through an urban area and onto a freeway ramp before reaching LA on I5, all in relatively light evening traffic.
According to the update description, FSD (Supervised) v12 includes vision-based attention monitoring with sunglasses and integrates city and highway into a single software stack. In other words, this is the first version that fully controls driving using artificial intelligence.
Cybertruck first started shipping 10 months ago, so FSD has been a long time coming. Recent tests by independent automotive testing group AMCI found that Tesla’s FSD can only go an average of 13 miles before requiring human intervention.
Recently, Elon Musk promised By the end of 2025 it’s self-governing without control, but it’s been making the same claim for nearly 10 years and it’s still not here. Now more than ever, the pressure is on, although the company is willing to reveal its reliance on FSD robotaxi product on October 10.
