So it remains to be seen if and when Tesla a a genuine retrofit solution for HW3 vehicles will offer.


Conclusion: An important step for the Model Y - but not a solution for older Teslas

With the new "MY Reloaded" FSD computer improved Tesla the hardware for the Model Yin particular through the support of a new front camera and an improved modem. It is likely that this hardware will be replacement for existing HW4 vehicles or as standard in upcoming Model Y variants serve.
