Tesla software update 2026.2.6.5, released on February 27, 2026, covers entertainment, vehicle convenience, supervised driving and software maintenance. Its 7 documented entries explain changes to the ownership experience, from the features used inside the cabin to the software operating behind them. Availability depends on the vehicle and the requirements of each entry.
FSD (Supervised) v13.2.9 Down Under is listed for Model 3 and Model Y with HW4. Availability follows the requirements of each entry; the update number alone does not identify which driving branch a vehicle receives.
Grok with Navigation Commands (Beta) edits destinations in Assistant mode on AMD Ryzen vehicles with connectivity.
Unlatching Charge Cable uses a three-second hold of the rear-left handle on Model 3 and Model Y. Child Left Alone Detection is listed for newer Model Y vehicles. If an unattended child is detected, the vehicle flashes its exterior indicator lights, sounds an alert and sends a Tesla app notification. The alerts repeat at intervals until the owner returns. Detection is enabled by default, with cabin information processed locally rather than sent to Tesla.
FSD (Supervised) v13.2.9 Down Under upgrades the AI4-based driving network with full-resolution video inputs, expanded training and reduced control latency. Integrated unparking, reversing and parking capabilities join a redesigned controller aimed at smoother tracking. Dynamic routing can respond to road closures detected by the fleet. Proposed future additions are separate from these delivered changes. Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Down Under assists navigation and maneuvers with continuous driver supervision. Vision-Based Attention Monitoring uses the cabin camera when visibility permits and steering-wheel monitoring otherwise.
Minor Fixes covers smaller software corrections and refinements.
Driving assistance continues to require continuous driver supervision. The documented capabilities can include features carried forward within the same software branch.
