2026.2 Official Tesla Release Notes – Software Updates – Not a Tesla App

This is an early look at this update. It may include additional features for specific models and/or regions.
If an unattended child is detected, the vehicle will flash the exterior indicator lights, play an alert tone, and send a notification to your Tesla app. This will repeat at regular intervals until you return to your vehicle. Cabin data is processed locally and is not transmitted to Tesla.
This feature is enabled by default. To disable, go to Controls > Safety > Child Left Alone Detection.
This release contains minor bug fixes and improvements.
To go along with some of the naming changes, Tesla is replacing the term Autopilot with Self-Driving in most areas.
– Under Controls, the Autopilot tab has been renamed Self-Driving.
– Under the Autopilot menu, “Autopilot Features” has been renamed “Self-Driving Features.” This lets the user select between TACC, Autosteer, or Full Self-Driving.
Tesla has changed the way the map version appears in the Software menu. Instead of listing the full map version, which includes the region, version, and build, Tesla will now include only the region and version, such as NA-2025.44.
Tesla added 3D Supercharger Site maps in the 2025 Holiday Update. While the holiday update included 18 Supercharger sites in the United States, Tesla is now expanding this to Europe. We found at least two new Supercharger site maps in Belgium, located in Brugge and Heusden-Zolder.
These 3D representations of a Supercharger site include an accurate layout of the site, which is then coupled with live data.
The layout shows where each spot is, the location of the charger relative to the parking spot, handicap- and trailer-friendly stalls, and more.
The live data is even more interesting. Not only does it show which spots are occupied, but it also shows which Tesla model is charging at each location. It’ll identify and display a 3D model of the vehicle, and for non-Tesla EVs, it’ll display a generic vehicle model.
While these 3D models are limited to vehicles with AMD Ryzen infotainment units, anyone can view them by searching for the location in maps.
The ECU Update Status panel now includes non-Controller Area Network (CAN) Electronic Control Units (ECUs), such as the Autopilot processors and Telematics Control Unit (TCU).
Models: Model S (2021+), Model 3, Model X (2021+), Model Y, Cybertruck
