FSD Beta 10.69.2 to start rolling out today (update: going out now).

By Nuno Cristovao

FSD Beta 10.69.2 is expected to start going out to beta testers today.

Elon Musk shared an update last night on the latest FSD Beta, stating that the release would be available to employees as of yesterday and would become more widely available today.

We haven’t been able to confirm whether any employees have received the beta yet, although it’s clear that the wider release hasn’t started yet.

Although the public roll out of 10.69.2 is expected to start today, it’ll likely begin with beta testers that are on beta 10.69.1.1 and gradually increase from there.

Update 2022.20.11

FSD 10.69.1.1

Last updated: Sep 11, 3:50 am

FSD Beta 10.69.1.1 is installed on about 20% of vehicles enrolled in the beta program. The majority of beta testers remain on the last wide-release beta, which was version 10.12.2. However that was first released back in mid-May.

Beta 10.69 changes a lot of underlying code and Tesla has been cautious with its release. Although we’re likely see beta 10.69.2 start going out today, the release may not come until later in the day and it may be several days before the majority of testers have access to this release.

FSD Beta 10.69.2 is expected to only include bug fixes for those users coming from beta 10.69.1.1, however it includes vast improvements for anyone on beta 10.12.2. 

The improvements include additional features that were included in update 2022.16 and 2022.20 as well as improvements to FSD itself.

Update: Elon just shared an update this afternoon on the release of FSD Beta 10.69.2. Unfortunately a bug related to pedestrian detection was found.

The good news is that the bug has been fixed, however it seems like it may have set Tesla back a day, although it’s not totally clear based on Elon’s message. Elon simply said that the bug has been fixed and Tesla will be “rolling out tonight.” Its not clear whether he means the internal roll out will be tonight or the wider, public roll out.

Certainly not the news we were waiting for, but at least the delay shouldn’t be long.

Update: FSD Beta 10.69.2 started rolling out to public beta testers early Sunday morning. FSD Beta 10.69.2 is update 2022.20.15 and appears to only include bug fixes from 10.69.1.1.

Elon Musk wants to make Tesla Service 'awesome'

You never know when Tesla’s CEO is listening — or reading tweets. Elon Musk responded to a tweet complaining about service. He puts his money where his mouth is with his response and lets everyone know where he is focused. He tweeted: Note, I am putting a lot of time personally into advancing Tesla service to make it awesome. Hopefully, this is starting to be felt by Tesla owners.

With more and more Teslas on the road, it’s only natural that there will be a demand for more services. The electric vehicle pioneer is upscaling every part of its business, from factories to charging stations. Last year, Musk talked about expeditating service center openings. Now, it’s clear that service centers are on the CEO’s list of things to do. It is not the first time Musk has talked about improving Tesla’s service capabilities. On June 4, 2022, he tweeted: Working on Tesla North American service. Goal is 2/3 of cars receive same-day service, no wait.

As for the complaint that prompted Musk’s latest response, Twitter user Austin Hinson shared a screen grab of a message he received from Tesla. The statement explained that his appointment had been rescheduled because the parts required to fix his car did not arrive in time. Hinson was upset about the late notice, and he tweeted: So Tesla gets to charge me $100 to change my appointment within 24 hours, but this appointment has been scheduled for 2 weeks and they’re just now telling me this? Service needs to be addressed.

Musk agreed with Hinson and said it should be reciprocal. He responded that Tesla owners should be credited $100 if appointments are changed with less than 24 hours’ notice. Musk also tagged Tesla in his response, but there is no mention of the $100 credit on the website — yet.

Tesla’s goal is to eliminate the need for service. The vehicle comes with several advantages in services due to the remote diagnostics and over-the-air software updates to keep the vehicle in tip-top shape. Also, with far fewer moving parts, regular maintenance is not necessary. The company was ahead of others by incorporating service into the app, allowing owners to book, modify or cancel appointments with Tesla’s service centers. The app also lets Tesla communicate with customers with service reminders and when the vehicle is ready for pick-up.

The cost of Tesla’s Full Self Driving has increased 300% since it was revamped and made available to buy in 2019. Those lucky enough to buy FSD in April 2019 got it for the bargain basement price of $5,000 – it now costs $15,000 in the United States.

Elon Musk warned consumers through Twitter that FSD would be more expensive. On August 21 2022, he tweeted: After wide release of FSD Beta 10.69.2, price of FSD will rise to $15k in North America on September 5. Current price will be honored for orders made before September 5 but delivered later.

Tesla reorganized its Autopilot and FSD packages three years ago; basic Autopilot was introduced and became standard on every vehicle, while FSD was priced at $5,000. Enhanced Autopilot was removed as an option at the time, but was later reintroduced as a $6,000 option in June of 2022.

Before 2019 FSD was an add-on that required also buying Enhanced Autopilot. Enhanced Autopilot cost $5,000 and FSD was a $3,000 option on top of that if ordered with the vehicle. If you ordered FSD after taking delivery then it cost $4,000, which later went up to $5,000.

It can only be assumed that there were a lot of buyers for FSD when Tesla rearranged their offerings in 2019, as the price for FSD went up the following month and has been on the rise since.

In fact, Tesla raised the price again three months after the first release, and eighteen months later, it had doubled to $10,000. 2022 started with another jump to $12,000 in January, and now nine months later, the price has gone up again.

Date FSD Cost
April 2019 $5,000
May 2019 $6,000
August 2019 $7,000
July 2020 $8,000
October 2020 $10,000
January 2022 $12,000
September 2022 $15,000

Tesla’s CEO has made no qualms about the value of the program. At a shareholders’ meeting in August, he said Tesla’s engineers are producing breakthroughs in artificial intelligence. “We’re solving a very important part of AI and one that can ultimately save millions of lives. And prevent 10 of millions of serious injuries by driving just an order of magnitude safer than people,” said Musk. Since its inception and to this day, Musk believes that Teslas will be fully autonomous. He sees a future where your car would drive you to work, then operate as a ride share until you need to go home.

While Musk said the price would increase to $15,000 in North America, it skyrocketed to $19,500 in Canada, more than a 50% boost from what it cost in August. Although there is a monthly subscription offered in the U.S., there currently isn’t one offered north of the border.
