Tesla CEO Elon Musk said last week that the automaker’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) beta 10.12 update was coming on March 8 in the U.S. and March 11 in Canada, but now it has been delayed.
@ElonMusk confirmed on Wednesday evening the FSD beta update would come “this weekend”, after being asked about it on Twitter by @WholeMarsBlog.

Last month, Tesla released its 2022.4.5.4 software update which made FSD available for Canada drivers.
Before the feature began rolling out in the country, Musk said Tesla had around 60 cars testing FSD in Canada.
The feature will roll out in a similar fashion to how it did in the U.S., for Tesla drivers with the highest safety scores first, slowly cascading to a wider range of scores.
In February, Tesla was also forced to disable FSD’s rolling stop feature, after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) noted that rolling stops aren’t legal and a recall was immediately necessary.
On Wednesday, it was noted that Tesla is prioritizing FSD buyer delivery times for new Model 3 and Y orders, with some regions showing delivery times cut by as many as seven months.
Musk has also stated that Tesla would consider licensing its FSD software to other automakers.
