2016 Tesla Model S P90D Autopilot Demo | Autoblog Tech

Autoblog's Adam Morath demonstrates Autopilot on the 2016 Tesla Model S P90D. Autopilot enables self-driving in some situations on the Model S. Cameras, radar and 360-degree sonar evaluate traffic and road conditions, allowing the Tesla to autonomously steer and change lanes on behalf of the driver. But, in our experience, Autopilot is not perfect all of the time.

These videos are much better than the horrible "short cuts"!!

Damn back when Teslas had a black interior

[@IvanSanchez-sg9pu]

I tried autopilot and it doesn't detect stop signs or stop lights

[@Luma_29]

It’s not programmed to. Currently the FSD package is still in its infancy, and Tesla has yet to get around to supporting any fluid forms of stop-and-go traffic. Remember that as of now, autopilot is advertised to drive you with your hands still on the wheel coupled with navigation routed. Autopilot can work with your hands off, but it’s not recommended just yet.

pretty sure 2016 models don't start on teslas until 2016

+Ken Melby he was probably driving the 2031 car, mmmmmhm.

I really see no purpose to the "Autopilot" feature as it's currently configured. If you still have to keep your hands on the wheel, or at best, hovering just above it, what's the point? You might as well just drive the car normally.
And what Tesla seems to forget is that a lot of us ENJOY controlling our cars ourselves. It's called the "driving experience". Unfortunately, manufacturers have been pulling us farther and farther away from this pleasure. No thanks. No automatic or DCT for me. I'll shift my own gears and steer my car myself, thank you very much.

+Jeff Puha there is a video that shows two guys playing checkers and napping and doing all sorts of things while auto-pilot is on.

I know this post is over a year old, but I felt the need to mention it anyway:
A lot of us love driving too. But we don't like driving in tough traffic.
Many of us have awful commutes to our jobs if we live/work in the city. I do NOT like driving in traffic where I inch along. It gets worse if I'm driving a manual.
In those instances, Autopilot was be phenomenal.

are you idiot
if you dont want to use
then just dont engage it

[@andrewmcinnis3161]

You must be great at parties 🤣🤣🤣

[@thesoundpainterbkny3465]

Auto driving is 10 to 20 years away. There is no way I would trust a car to drive me without the entire society using the same software and hardware. Hight sensors would have to be installed every highway in the country.

[@whatintarnation4969]

There has been 0 crashes that have been the cars fault

[@noahhogue9341]

😂 far from correct probably gonna be out in like 1 maybe 2 years so 6-7 years from when u made that comment

[@trendy28]
