Elon Musk Says New UI Coming For All Tesla Cars With FSD Computers

Tesla Inc TSLA CEO Elon Musk on Monday said the updated version of the electric vehicle maker’s full self-driving software release will carry a fresh user interface as well.

What Happened: In a tweet response, Musk said all Tesla vehicles with the FSD computer will be equipped with an updated UI or the “mind of car view.” Musk was responding to a query on whether the Model 3 and Model Y would eventually see new UI. The Tesla CEO noted that all Model 3s and Model Ys can be upgraded to have FSD computers.

The Palo Alto, California-based company has rolled its FSD Beta program out to a small set of testers — who have shown the car can make impressive moves, like dodging a deer on dirt roads. The closed beta will expand to a larger group of people.
