Tesla Deploys FSD V14 to Australia and New Zealand, with Regional Feature Gaps

Tesla has begun rolling out Full Self-Driving (FSD) Supervised version 14 (build 14.3.3) to HW4 vehicles in Australia and New Zealand, as part of a global effort to update the fleet. However, the Oceania release omits some North American features—such as the 8 mph max for Actually Smart Summon and the unification of ASS, FSD, and Robotaxi—and lacks newer map options. Hardware 3 owners will get FSD v14 Lite later to match the main update while Tesla scales the stack to older cars.

Tesla: Hardware 3 Cars Must Upgrade to Hardware 4 for Unsupervised FSD

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on the earnings call that Hardware 3 cannot support unsupervised FSD, meaning millions of cars from 2019–2023 will need new hardware and camera upgrades to Hardware 4. Tesla is considering discounted trade-ins and “microfactories” to speed the retrofits, and Musk floated converting Hardware 3 cars to Hardware 4 to enable a robotaxi fleet. He also teased a future rental model for owner cars, while acknowledging consumer FSD timelines are likely to slip (potentially back to Q4).

Tesla says HW3 cars can’t reach unsupervised FSD without hardware upgrade

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said vehicles with Hardware 3 cannot achieve unsupervised Full Self-Driving and must upgrade to Hardware 4 (plus camera changes) to enable FSD. Tesla will offer discounted trade-ins and plans to run multiple upgrade lines in major cities to retrofit older models (roughly 2019–2023) with the new hardware, highlighting memory bandwidth as a key bottleneck for autonomous driving.
