Tesla’s Full Self-Driving software development is entering a new phase. After grappling with challenges during the V12.4 rollout, the company is shifting focus to the next iteration, V12.5. Already tested in complex driving scenarios, this version is poised for public release and promises significant advancements.
It will introduce vehicle-to-fleet communication and unify the software controlling highway and city driving. However, perfecting FSD is becoming increasingly arduous. As the software improves, identifying its shortcomings becomes more difficult, leading to lengthy testing periods and occasional setbacks.
This was evident in the delayed and troubled rollout of V12.4, which faced multiple setbacks due to unexpected issues. Tesla’s recent software update rollout encountered difficulties, leading to a pause in deployment.

While the company focuses on refining this build, anticipation grows for the highly anticipated FSD V12.5, especially among Cybertruck owners. This version promises significant advancements, including improved driving capabilities and innovative features like vehicle-to-fleet communication.
By sharing real-time road conditions, Tesla vehicles will collectively enhance navigation and reduce reliance on traditional map updates. Additionally, unifying the software stack for both highway and city driving marks a substantial leap in FSD development, though it may extend the testing and refinement process. With these ambitious goals, a late August release for customers seems optimistic at this stage.
