On January 22, 2025, Tesla rolled out software update 2024.45.32.5, which includes FSD V12.6.2 for HW3 Model 3 vehicles and FSD V13.2.5 for HW4 models.

This update marks the first time FSD V12.6 is available for the Model 3 with HW3, previously exclusive to the redesigned Model S, Model X, and Model Y.

The FSD update is based on version 2024.45.32.x, making it accessible to all vehicles and prompting interest in subscribing to FSD ahead of a wider rollout.

The update is expected to roll out to most HW3 vehicles within two weeks, provided there are no major issues during the rollout process.

FSD V12.6 brings improvements in End-to-End on Highways, City Street behavior, tracking accuracy, and speed profiles, marking a significant advancement from version 12.5.4.2.

The updates primarily focus on bug fixes rather than introducing new features, aiming to broaden the audience for FSD capabilities.

Model 3 owners can finally expect to test new features like End-to-End on Highway after a prolonged wait, while the Cybertruck remains exclusive to HW4.

In addition to software updates, the refreshed Model Y has been announced in Asia-Pacific markets, with initial vehicles from Giga Shanghai en route to showrooms.

Customer deliveries of the refreshed Model Y are anticipated to begin around May 2025 in the Asia-Pacific region, with a potential North American and European launch by summer.

Significant interior updates for the Model Y include ventilated seats, a new center console design, and the return of the turn signal stalk.

The new Model Y also features a redesigned front end with a prominent light bar, aggressive body lines, and new wheel designs that may or may not include aero covers.

The rear of the Model Y showcases a new reflective light bar, claimed to be an industry-first, along with an updated rear camera location for enhanced functionality.

Legacy Model S and Model X vehicles are not included in this update and remain on FSD V12.5.4.2, with future support anticipated.
