The best bang for your money Autopilot package is now back for all cars in all (most?) countries. In the US, you can add it to your Tesla for $6k, this would give you all the features that the FSD package offers today, except for traffic and stop sign control, potential access to the FSD Beta, or in the future, autosteering in city streets. If you purchase this package, you can add FSD for $6k until Tesla raises the price again, or subscribe for $99 / month. You can buy it directly on your Tesla app, under Upgrades, Software Updates.
What are the differences between Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot, FSD, and FSD Beta? Well, it isn’t that easy to explain, but this table offers a simplified easy view of it all.

We talked about this retrofit a few newsletters ago, now this is the final update of the DIY Model Y HEPA Retrofit. Honestly, if someone offers this at a decent price, I will most likely get it for my Model Y.
With a Raspberry Pi and some Open Source software, you can add Apple CarPlay to your Tesla. Personally, I don’t think I need a CarPlay integration, but I’ve seen folks asking for this in the past, if you are the tinkerer type, this might be for you.
As Tesla fan I find myself sometimes having to remember what are all those acronyms, here is a list of the ones you can find in this issue.
