Tesla FSD v14 Adds Robotaxi-Style Arrival Options and Start From Park

AUSTIN, Texas — Tesla's latest software update is quietly handing owners a taste of the robotaxi experience. Released June 29, version 2026.20.5.1 introduces two notable new Full Self-Driving (Supervised) capabilities — Arrival Options and Start Self-Driving from Park — that let the car begin a drive from a parked spot and choose precisely how to end it.

Drives That Start and End Themselves

With Start Self-Driving from Park, a button now appears on screen once driver requirements are met — the driver seated and buckled, with an unobstructed cabin camera. Tap it, press and release the brake, and FSD takes over from a standstill, no manual pull-out required. It is a meaningful step toward the seamless, door-to-door behavior Tesla has been building toward, even as the feature keeps the driver responsible and attentive.

The companion feature, Arrival Options, is where the robotaxi influence is most obvious. Drivers can now tell FSD exactly where to conclude a trip — a Parking Lot, Street, Driveway, Parking Garage or Curbside drop-off — and those preferences are saved per destination. It mirrors the kind of pickup-and-drop-off logic powering Tesla's Cybercab production push and points to how closely the consumer FSD stack and the autonomous fleet are converging.

More Control Over How It Drives

The update also expands Tesla's Speed Profiles, building on the profiles that recently rolled out internationally. A new profile called SLOTH joins the lineup, offering lower speeds and more conservative lane selection than the existing CHILL setting, while a driver's chosen profile now has a stronger influence on behavior — the more assertive the profile, the higher the maximum speed. The right scroll wheel now adjusts the Speed Profile directly, and settings like Arrival Options can be tweaked straight from the Autopilot visualization on the center display.

For HW3 owners, the release bundles FSD v14 Lite, which distills the intelligence of the newer HW4 V14 stack into older hardware, unlocking smoother handling, improved pedestrian and traffic-light behavior, and — for the first time on those cars — parking, unparking and reversing.

Inching Toward Hands-Free Convenience

Taken together, the new features make FSD feel less like a highway assist and more like a personal chauffeur that can manage the full arc of a trip, from the driveway to the destination curb. Each release narrows the gap between what owners experience today and the fully autonomous service Tesla is scaling on its robotaxi network.

While the system remains a supervised, Level 2 driver-assist feature that requires attention at all times, the direction is clear. Owners can review the full capabilities through Tesla's Autopilot and FSD support pages, and with over-the-air updates arriving at a steady clip, the car in the driveway keeps getting smarter.
