Here is something I have been wanting to ask:
Elon let it be known at autonomy day (perhaps unwisely?) that there is yet a newer FSD chip coming beyond the one in HW3, and that this new one will be even better in performance/capabilities. I understand that cars currently being shipped have HW3 with the new FSD chip, and cars with AP2/2.5 that have purchased the FSD option will get HW3 as an upgrade.
Lets give the name “HW4” to AP hardware based on this yet-to-be-released FSD Chip. The questions are (and probably no one knows):
- Will the FSD option purchased with cars being delivered now with HW3 guarantee an upgrade to HW4?
- Will cars that get upgraded to HW3, because of prior FSD purchase, get upgraded again to HW4?
