Tesla (TSLA) began the rollout of FSD (Supervised) v14.1.3 earlier today. The first wave of this new Full Self-Driving AI software started reaching out to the usual early access beta testers group.

However, several reports submitted by several general Tesla owners suggest that the AI-based automaker has started expanding the rollout of FSD v14 beginning with the point release v14.1.3 (firmware version 2025.32.8.15).

The release notes of the FSD v14.1.3 subversion haven’t changed from the original main branch (read below). However, Tesla owners have already started testing it, and the first-drive impressions show noticeable improvements in the system.

Tesla is accelerating the rollout of FSD v14 point releases. It has just been around two weeks since the automaker started deploying FSD v14.1, the first FSD v14 release outside of Tesla internal testing.

Tesla influencer Sawyer Merritt reported that he got around 100 DMs from normal Tesla owners getting the FSD v14.1.3 (2025.32.8.15) update.

According to Tesla software rollout tracking stats by TeslaFi.com and Tessie, as of this writing, FSD v14.1.3 has reached out to around 0.4% of the Tesla fleet.

Although it has been expanded to users outside of the early access group of influencers and YouTubers, it still cannot be called a wide release. Tesla is taking the cautious approach for safety concerns. All the data provided by these early tests will boost the Tesla AI team’s confidence in releasing FSD v14 to the wider public.

Last month, Tesla CEO Elon Musk provided an FSD v14 version rollout sequence. This timeline suggests that the wide release of FSD 14 will not begin before FSD v14.2.

Tesla still hasn’t started the FSD v14 rollout to Cybertruck units. Earlier this month, Tesla’s head of AI, Ashok Elluswamy, said that the Cybertruck FSD v14 rollout might begin at the end of October. Cybertruck owners, keep your fingers crossed and trucks ready for testing.

FSD v14.1.3: First-Drive Impressions

“I did over an hour of driving with FSD v14.1.3 in my Model S tonight and experienced 0 disengagements,” Dan Burkland wrote on X.

Tesla owner and influencer Sawyer Merritt wrote the following first-impressions review of FSD v14.1.3 after using it for 3 hours straight:

I just got back from over 3 hours of driving to and around Boston using Tesla FSD V14.1.3. No interventions. It was great. V14 is ready to be released wide in my opinion.

It feels noticeably smoother and more comfortable in everyday driving compared to 14.1.2. That’s especially impressive since I tested 14.1.3 in Boston at night, while V14.1.2 was only tested in southern New Hampshire (less challenging).

I only noticed one minor hesitation at a stoplight and one issue during a curbside drop-off at the start of this video, where it circled the block once before pulling over in the correct area, but both were not a big deal. I had no safety issues tonight. There was also an interesting moment in the video where I accidentally set the curbside drop-off area in a dead end street. FSD took a little while figuring out how to back out, but it eventually did it without my help.

Another Tesla owner named Zack (@BLKMDL3) praised FSD v14.1.3 after driving his Tesla on it for 35 minutes without any human intervention. He wrote on X:

FSD v14.1.3 drives me to the Tesla Diner with zero human input.

35 minutes across two highways and city streets handled perfectly.

FSD handled traffic so well and even swerved for a motorcyclist flying across the street.

Wildly good drive! Great job Tesla team getting these updates out so quick.
