2016 FSD MCU

[RickleYard]

I'm looking at buying a 2016 Model X from Tesla. It says it has FSD but I wasn't sure if that meant it had MCU 1 or and upgrade...Can anyone shed some light?

If Tesla is nice, it would upgrade the hardware to the current 2020 hardware in productions: MCU2 and HW3.0 prior to publishing it on site.

To save money, chances are Tesla would leave the car with whatever it came in 2016: MCU1 and HW2.0.

That means you'll need to schedule for a free upgrade to HW3.0 then it's up to you to pay additionally $2,500 for MCU2 for a "smoother" experience or not.

@Tam Thanks! I'll keep digging to see if I can find more.
