Your heat pump is one of the biggest electrical loads in your home Heat Pump Optimization allows your Powerwall to boost heating when there's surplus solar or energy is inexpensive, helping you save money when rates are high - available with Powerwall 3 & Powerwall 3P in Europe

"In a major milestone, Green NCAP has independently assessed the whole-life impact of the Berlin-built Model Y, an electric SUV, including the sourcing of raw materials, manufacturing process, distribution and daily operation.  This in-depth analysis, made possible by Tesla’s transparent approach in sharing data with Green NCAP, offers consumers an unrivalled overview of how Tesla has successfully minimised the impact of this popular SUV, which was bought by 150,000 European drivers last year.  Achieving a maximum five-star Sustainability Rating, the Model Y is particularly praised by Green NCAP’s experts for its low levels of Greenhouse Gases associated with the manufacturing and operating phases of the car’s life."

Increased safety and comfort on the road
After an undiagnosed seizure put Wilco's family in a crash & cost him a year of driving, getting his license back didn't feel like enough. FSD Supervised gave his family something a license alone couldn't: peace of mind

Q3 Shareholder Update → ir.tesla.com Highlights – FSD Supervised attach rate grew to over 75% of new vehicle deliveries in NA – Unveiled the next-gen Roadster – Record deliveries in Canada, Australia, Japan & Taiwan – Tesla Semi now in volume production. Top variant can go up to 500 miles at a full 82,000 lbs while achieving efficiency of 1.7 kWh/mile – about a third of the energy a comparable diesel truck burns for the same load – Ended the quarter with the largest backlog for our passenger vehicles in 4 years! FSD Supervised – 4 new approvals since Q2 (Croatia, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Slovakia) – FSD is now live in nine EU countries & used by over 100,000 customers logging more than 160 million kilometers since initial approval Robotaxi – Deployed Cybercab into our Austin fleet – Hit nearly 2 million cumulative unsupervised miles, 8x growth in the quarter – Austin service now runs 6 am to midnight, with wait times continuing to come down as we add cars & improve the orchestration algorithms – Added Grok to Cybercab with Grok Bot & Connectors, letting you interface with your inbox, calendar, files, chats and tasks, all by voice. Transport, office & living room in one Robotics – Started production of @Tesla_Optimus on our high-volume lines in Fremont. These are the first production-quality bots we've built, proving that the current manufacturing process for Optimus is suitable for a commercial product SI Compute – On track for 400 MW of training compute by year end, feeding both vehicle & humanoid autonomy – Austin Fab construction continues, equipment commissioning planned for 2027 Battery – Battery supply is still the limiter on how fast we ramp vehicles globally, so we're expanding on every front: pack capacity in Berlin, cathode and lithium refining in Texas, LFP cells in Nevada – Shipped the first Megapacks built entirely with our own LFP cells – Increasing 4680 output to support ramp of Cybercab, Semi & Model Y Energy – Megafactory Texas is up & running, with Megapack 3 production started – Highest-ever order rate & backlog for energy storage Grid constraints & power availability are making Megapack the answer for SI infrastructure demand: it excels at supplying large data center loads, smooths out demand spikes, helps new projects meet grid connection rules & makes the grid itself more stable All with less local fossil fuel generation Supporting Infrastructure – Added 2,100+ net new Supercharger stalls, up 14% year over year

We are launching the Tesla Robotaxi safety report today. Till date, Robotaxi has driven a total of 3.3 million miles autonomously, and has had zero injuries nor airbag deployments. If the same number of miles were to be manually driven, we should expect roughly 9 injuries to the occupants or other pedestrians and 4 airbag deployments on average. We will continue to transparently share our progress with the public using this page. tesla.com/robotaxi/safety

New Tesla Roadster info from the videos below: • Bespoke 4680 battery cell just for Roadster. Tesla's fastest charging battery, 15-80% charge in 10 mins. • Tesla wants to get to a <30 minute COPV tank refilling time, which will last ~5 seconds (single use before you have to refill it). • COPV uses an actuator from Tesla's Optimus robot • Roadster is capable of 0-60mph time of 0.55 seconds • 310-320 mile range • Up to 1,500 hp • Two motors, both on the rear axel • 10,000 psi COPV • 330+ mph top speed target • Rocket trim will be limited production • Almost every panel of the car moves in some way • Roadster is 2 meters wide • The pedals move for driver comfort. Seats are fixed • Brake-by-wire (and steer-by-wire) • Wireless phone charger • Heated seats • Next-gen heat pump • Tesla's thinnest headlights ever • Rear-wheel drive only, with 2 rear motors making 1+ megawatt & 1,400+ Nm, more than all 3 Plaid motors combined • No differential: each rear wheel is controlled independently through 8.4:1 planetary gears, with its own inverter • New 4680 cells with a special high-power chemistry, aluminum cans (instead of steel) & double-sided cooling • Titanium upper battery plate + aluminum lower plate • 800V architecture (same as Cybertruck & Semi) • 15-80% charge in 10 minutes, Tesla's fastest-charging battery ever • 300+ miles of range (battery size not disclosed) • Target of 25-30 minutes of unlimited track driving per charge • Weight just under 1,700 kg or 3,700 lbs (not final) • Double wishbone front suspension, multi-link rear, adaptive dampers • Track Mode lowers the car 40mm & makes it 3x stiffer • Pop-down headlights only ~15mm tall • Front wings move up to 80°, with pop-out side "scales" (barge boards) & an active hood vent • 4 rear fans (~20 kW each) + 4 drop-down side skirts form a "sucker system" for 2+ g of cornering from 0-50 mph • Skirts are replaceable rubber & nylon-bristle wear parts • Orange-tinted titanium-oxide rear glass, as used on aircraft • Removable roof panels • 4-5 prototypes built so far, with a bigger build planned early next year • Tesla calls it "the last great driver's car"
