That article appears to be purely speculation. They're working off the same information as the rest of us.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the S/X get the front bumper camera, but it's curious that it seems to have been removed from the Highland at the last second.

This. Not a Tesla App has also delivered headlines such as New update allows users to adjust regen on all Teslas. HW4 S/X new camera position (with this picture...basically the same thing people are falling for now) and other wrong stuff.

That's not what people are pointing to as the possible camera. There seems to be something to the left of the logo within the gap between the frunk and the trunk. But I'm not convinced that isn't just the render's lighting change showing whatever's normally within the gap. It looks too far back to be a wide angle camera IMO

People want the camera so bad they see what they want to see.

Until it's confirmed people should assume there is no camera there.
 
So digging through the json stuff in the latest toolbox javascript, I found the below:

                  ]
               }
            ]

"Poppyseed" refers to the Model 3 Highland. Lychee and Tamarind are the 2021+ S/X.

Sure seems like the RGB stuff isn't currently planned for the S/X based on the possible configurations. Doesn't mean the RGB stuff for the S/X isn't planned eventually, but I don't think it's imminent since the cybertruck references are there, but not the S/X.

I don't see any references to a front bumper camera at all.

That’s a bummer. Got all hyped for nothing 😂 What is the non RGB premium lighting then? The footwells/map lights? Does it also appear in older code?

Yeah it refers to the footwell/map lights and the overhead lights. Really it's more applicable to the 3/Y, but Tesla did let some of those configurations that don't make sense apply to the S/X (but I haven't really seen examples of the opposite, where equipment that is present doesn't have a valid configuration entry).

Hopefully Tesla offers a retrofit if it ever does come to the S/X. The wiring is apparently present (at least it was, not sure if that's still the case).

I doubt there'll be a retrofit for the camera. And if there is, it'll only be HW4 cars. But I don't think we'll see it on any Teslas except maybe the cybertruck any time soon. I don't particularly care much about the rgb lighting either, but I'd probably pay for a cheap retrofit.

Honestly, I wish they'd just bring back ultrasonics. I'd pay an extra $5k for those.
