Tesla Begins Rolling Out Summer Update to FSD Vehicles in Europe

Tesla has begun deploying the latest Summer Update to vehicles with FSD in Europe. After a vehicle has maintained an FSD subscription for several months, Tesla typically moves it to the FSD track, where it receives the newest FSD builds but often waits longer for broader feature releases.

Because new features are integrated into Tesla’s main development branch while FSD releases are built on a separate code branch, features take longer to reach vehicles running FSD. With this Summer Update bringing items like Preferred Routes and Grok Vehicle Commands, the delay has been noticeable. Tesla announced the Summer Update more than a month ago, and vehicles on the latest FSD builds are only now starting to receive it.

Tesla Begins Merging FSD and Summer Update

The merge is starting in Europe with software update 2026.27.100.1. This release includes FSD 14.2.2.6 for hardware 4 vehicles and also adds the 2026 Summer Update.

Europe is the first region seeing this combination, with other regions such as Oceania and North America expected to follow. In North America, beyond vehicles on the latest FSD release, hardware 3 vehicles on v14 Lite are also waiting for the Summer Update.

What FSD Owners Are Missing From the Summer Update

Tesla’s 2026.26 Summer Update introduced a wide range of features, although availability varies by model and hardware.

Additions include Preferred Routes, smarter Automatic Navigation, Grok vehicle commands, Caraoke scoring, customizable driving visualization zoom, mobile custom-wrap uploads, Camera Preview while driving, arrival-energy settings from the Tesla app, Apple Music queuing, Supercharger search by site name, and the ability to disable touch input on rear displays.

Newer Model 3 and Model Y vehicles also received welcome animations, while certain items such as browser camera access and Caraoke scoring require AMD Ryzen infotainment hardware.
