Tesla CarPlay Delayed by iOS patch cadence and map-sync challenges

Tesla’s CarPlay rollout is stalled by a clash between Apple Maps and Tesla’s FSD navigation, with Apple reportedly applying a fix that Tesla awaits via iOS 26 adoption; when enabled, CarPlay would run in its own window while keeping Tesla controls and FSD visuals aligned. The piece also notes Tesla’s ongoing push for a vision‑only autonomy approach (removing radar to avoid sensor fusion conflicts) and includes a brief guide on using a single key card to unlock multiple Teslas.

Tesla's Vision-First Autonomy: Cameras Over Radar and LiDAR

Tesla has doubled down on a vision-only approach, removing radar and relying on eight cameras and a neural-network world model to drive autonomy. The company argues sensor fusion with radar/LiDAR creates conflicting data that can undermine safety, a stance it has pursued since 2021, with radar still present on some cars but not used for FSD. Tesla trains depth and velocity from vast camera data using ground-truth measurements from auxiliary sensors, and uses a foveated processing approach to keep compute scalable by focusing high-res on distant “priority” regions while downsampling the rest. The gamble aims for cheaper, scalable autonomy, contrasting with rivals’ sensor-fusion stacks.

Tesla pivots from cars to a future built on autonomy and robots

Tesla signals a shift from selling cars to focusing on autonomous technology and humanoid robots, retiring its Model S/X lineup to prioritize a “transportation as a service” future. It touts rising Full Self-Driving subscriptions, plans for robotaxis, and ongoing heavy spending on Optimus, Cybercab, and battery projects, while vehicle sales remain pressured and the business leans more toward software and services.

Wall Street Bets Big on Tesla Amid Robotaxi Push

Major funds and Elon Musk are quietly boosting Tesla stock as the company pushes into robotaxi services and turns full self-driving (FSD) into a monthly subscription, signaling recurring revenue growth and higher margins; Tesla has begun unsupervised robotaxi rides in Austin, with earnings-per-share expectations doubling over the next two years.

Tesla Ends Autopilot as Standard, Shifts to FSD Subscriptions

Tesla is scrapping Autopilot as a standard feature and shifting Full Self-Driving to a monthly subscription. The $8,000 one-time FSD option disappears on Feb 14, 2026, with current pricing about $99/month and a likely price rise as the software improves. Existing owners keep their features, but new buyers will buy a car that requires ongoing payments to access driver-assist features—a Netflix-like model that regulators view as a way to sidestep branding issues and boost recurring revenue.

Tesla Turns Autopilot into a Paywalled Path to FSD

Tesla has removed Basic Autopilot as a standard feature on new Model 3 and Model Y in North America, making Autosteer available only to customers who subscribe to the Full Self-Driving package at $99/month; Traffic-Aware Cruise Control remains standard. The shift to a subscription model aligns with Tesla's plan to discontinue selling FSD as a one-time option and comes amid regulatory actions in California over Autopilot marketing claims.

Tesla makes FSD a subscription, sparking mixed reactions from owners

Tesla will stop selling FSD as a one-time purchase and will require new buyers to subscribe for $99 per month after February 14. Three owners offered mixed views—from safety concerns and reluctance to pay a recurring fee to enthusiasm for the ongoing tech and hopes prices may eventually drop. Analysts say the move signals growing confidence in FSD, but prices could rise and bundles or license transfers for existing buyers may emerge as the program evolves.

Tesla's 2026 Wishlist: From Forever FSD to an Affordable Model 2 and Beyond

An opinion-piece wishlist for Tesla in 2026 envisions making Full Self-Driving a true software license owned by the user, unveiling a $25,000 Model 2 compact EV and a true 6/7-seat family SUV (CyberSUV), delivering the Roadster, offering HW3 retrofits and MCU4, adding a 360° parking view, expanding V2H/V2L across the lineup, native Starlink connectivity, a Tesla App Store, expanded Theater and Steam support, in-app energy arrival features, more customization options, adjustable speed control, and a Tesla-branded home heatpump—framed as aspirational ideas rather than confirmed plans.
