First look at Tesla Automations.

Tesla is introducing a new Automations app that allows users to create custom automations using a simple 'If This, Then That' logic. The app provides a wide range of triggers and actions, including vehicle states and environmental factors. It also includes voice command triggers and customizable feedback. However, certain safety limitations are in place, such as not allowing automations while Autopilot or FSD is active. The app is set to release in China soon and will be available in other regions in a future software update.

New Teslas No Longer Come With Autopilot, Now Only Include Cruise Control

Tesla has discontinued Basic Autopilot for new Model 3 and Model Y orders, now including only Traffic Aware Cruise Control (TACC). Autosteer, a key Autopilot feature, has been removed from new vehicle configurations, pushing lane-centering technology behind a paywall. New owners must choose between TACC or paying extra for Full Self-Driving (FSD). Tesla's move appears aimed at driving FSD adoption, with a $99/month subscription service launching next month.

Tesla Announces FSD Purchase Option Will Go Away Next Month — Here’s Why

Tesla has announced that it will stop selling its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software as a one-time purchase after February 14, 2026, transitioning to a monthly subscription model. This change aims to create predictable revenue streams and avoid legal issues associated with the “forever promise” of hardware capability. The subscription model also offers financial benefits to consumers, as the cost of subscribing over time is lower than the upfront purchase price. Tesla's new hybrid traction inverter patent proposes a cost-effective solution by using both Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Silicon (Si) chips, switching between them based on driving conditions to maximize efficiency and durability. Recent sightings of Tesla's upcoming robotaxi in Chicago and Austin reveal new features, including a rear camera washer and the removal of side mirrors, indicating progress in the vehicle's development.
