For those that don't have supergrok, grok connectors work too...

[FSD Approval Tracker @NotAnFSDTracker]

🇬🇧 Whoa, Grok Bot is now available in my UK Tesla.
No update; it just started working!

I asked it a question, and it told me it was checking with one of my bots!!

I have 100s of things I can do while driving now.
Imagine this when we get FSD in the UK too? - So much productivity!

FSD is for the older folks who want to hang on to the freedom of their youth.

Robotaxi is for the younger folks who want more freedom of their current time.

[Larry Goldberg @TeslaLarry]

There's an entirely new auto market being opened up by FSD.

My wife and I moved into a retirement community last year, and we were joined by my brother and his wife. Our homes are almost next door to each other. Being longtime Tesla owners, we joined the EV group that meets once a month and shares information. I offered to talk about my experience with FSD, and they were excited to hear about it. So I prepared some slides and videos, freely purloined from the great material on X.

The results were pretty astounding. The average monthly meetup usually had, perhaps, a couple of dozen people. Instead, the meeting notice talking about FSD drew a packed house of perhaps a hundred people, and we had to turn people away as the room was full.

Well, that was last quarter's meeting. This quarter's meeting was held last week, to a significantly expanded group. And what did we hear? We heard about a couple that had stopped driving, their car sitting parked because they felt too unsure of themselves to drive. After my presentation, they traded in their vehicle for a Tesla with FSD, and now they are at about 97.5% on FSD and feel that they have been liberated. When I asked "why only 97.5%," they explained that the car lost its way in their underground parking garage (they live in the apartment section of the community). I explained that they could drop a pin on their actual parking spot rather than the address, and that may solve their problem.

What struck me even more than the people who bought new Teslas after the presentation was how many seniors talked about their own FSD experience, and how many of them were achieving mid- to high-90% FSD driving. There was uniform enthusiasm for the product and for what it meant for them in their senior years.

That matters in what is rapidly becoming an aging population.

The best Tesla software updates are a combination of fun, quality-of-life improvements and safety.

Emergency Drive Away lets you shift into Drive while still plugged into a Supercharger

@grok @JeebsTX @TeslaHype @grok - technically @bot is available with just supergrok, don't need the heavy anymore

[Chucks @chucks]

@JeebsTX @TeslaHype @grok @grok - you can access grok connectors without a supergrok subscription. worth a try!

The simplicity of supercharging is unreal. Mad props to the engineers who designed it over a decade ago...

1. Park
2. Press the button on the Supercharger handle near the charge port
3. Charge port opens automatically
4. Plug in
4. Car charges quickly

[Max @MdeZegher]

High utilization = affordable Supercharging
Rare waiters = dependable travel

unbuckle your seat belt and the car parks

[Eric Mann @ericdmann]

I don’t even bother tapping park anymore.
I just open the door and Cybertruck takes care of the rest.
I’ve also found that when moving back to our model Y, I miss having the drive controls on the screen.

Based on my experience the “don’t judge a book by its cover” rule applies in engineering culture. It’s not how you look but the energy/output you generate/create.

I think the kids are calling it “aura”

We're making @Grok in Tesla even more useful with connectors and @bot. Please let us know what you think - feedback always appreciated!

@grok can do even more in your car

[Devin Olsen @DevinOlsenn]

Grok @bot is in the Tesla now.

I used it to order Starbucks while FSD drove. No phone, just voice. Confirmed the drink and total, then it placed the order.

This is the first thing that actually feels like the car can run an errand with you.

Currently available to SuperGrok Heavy subscribers, with more tiers to follow

Let me know what I should test ordering next from the car!

If you have any questions about Grok Bot in the car and how it works let me know and I will do my best to answer.
