I'm an "OG" FSD beta tester with >4 years of FSD experience and I think this is the most impressive FSD video I've ever seen. It has come SO far and it almost there!
Watching from the UK, FSD US youtube videos always seem to take place in (at least to UK eyes) inear empty roads. Waching those videos I wondered if FSD would operate on our traffic clogged roads. Now having seen your NY FSD videos I'm now confident FSD will function on our much busier, clogged roads. Thank you for uploading. Great stuff.
@@smoochie3331 It will never work. There are no rules and no rule enforcers in India. It might work in affluent mumbai areas like BK complex or RB city in Bengaluru but that’s about it.
Thank you so much for this video. I was stressed out just watching it, so I can imagine exactly how you felt as your car squeezed and manoeuvred through those crazy streets with pedestrians jumping out left right and centre. And what an amazingly impressive performance by FSD. Anyone who doubts FSD will be unsupervised in the near future has their head in the sand. Thank you again for putting yourself and your car through this.
As a driver of a HW3 FSD (Supervised) vehicle, I never watch any of these videos ALL the way through anymore….but I live in CO and this guy lives in NYC and my car NEVER comes across these complex scenarios so I HAD to watch all 47 minutes of this video hahaha. 100% retention. You crushed it with this video man! Thank you for the precious time of your life (and the high stress situations) you dedicated to making this
I cant believe it actually drove in Manhattan. Many prefer not to drive in Manhattan due to how hectic it gets. This is next level stuff. I think its getting close to L4 or even L5 autonomous driving.
The instant reaction to the waving pedestrian at 7:54 is nuts. If you didn't specify the car did this I would have accused you of pressing the accelerator 🤯
This is exactly what I said FSD would need to master to be taken seriously when I started testing back in 2019. New York's streets are some of the most challenging because navigating them often requires adapting to the rules just to make any progress, all while dealing with extremely tight spaces. When it stayed in the bus lane, weaved through double-parked cars on both sides, and made that left turn just as the line of cars was broken by their light turning red-that moment right there is exactly what I envisioned as the breakthrough needed to start convincing most people.
Parts of that were absolutely insane. Being a fellow FSD tester I can imagine how stressed you were, but you managed to stop yourself from taking over. Well done!
Wow, this is so impressive! Many more people need to see this. Only in a few situations I thought, it could have been even a little bit more assertive. But those were pretty insane scenarios.
After watching this I am even more jealous that we don’t have this in Europe. I watched 100s of FSD videos and it’s insane that it can handle busy Manhattan streets now! - Hope this gets release in Europe soon…
This clip is pure FSD porn😮. By far the hardest test i have ever seen and it handled it amazingly well! Two years ago I would never believe FSB would work in these crazy city scenarios, but now it is a certainty. Congrats to Elon and Tesla for achieving the impossible once again!
Wow wow wow! Full Self Driving has indeed arrived! Initially I thought what’s great about driving in a well organised grid like manhattan, but didn’t think about the complexity of driving with people milling about, insane levels of double parking and chaos in the relatively narrower parts. The FSD did beautifully well. Thank you for an amazing video.
FYI, the planned grid only exists north of Houston Street. South of that is pure chaos as many of those roads were predated by Indian trails from before the Dutch first settled the island in the 1600's. I can attest to having driven on those roads the chaos never ends, I'm stunned that FSD figured out every single scenario thrown its way.
Thanks so much for these videos. Way better and more informative than MKBHD's assisted driving vehicle ranking list. Marques bias has gotten to him all 2024 and his content has just declined in general, very selfish and abuses his audience's trust as he admitted in his 2024 apology video Keep this up. Love to see how incredible this technology is! Thank for sharing and taking the time for these experiments!!Much appreciated
Amazing! Displaying the FSD animation (that's your small display) on the big screen would be much more interesting than showing the map/route. The visualization let's you "see" what the car is "thinking" and shows off how it recognizes people, cars, etc.
Your fsd videos are rapidly becoming the most anticipated. Keep up the great work. Love seeing you really put fsd 13 through its paces. If you can make it in New York, you can make it anywhere! 😅. LFG Tesla AI!
Insane test! Thank you!My real world use case: Did a 400-mile round trip from Vancouver WA to Edmonds WA for a Christmas Eve family get-together on v13.2.2. Only 1 disengagement, and that was just before getting home, turning into my neighborhood! It is so amazing with city lane merges and roundabouts, hundreds of miles of I5 including 80mph driving and stop and go driving (in Seattle), then neighborhood driving and errands around Edmonds. The disengagement was because the turn into my neighborhood is from a suicide lane where you can turn in both directions. This instead of a dedicated turn lane, and it, for some reason, won't get into the suicide lane to make the turn. Silly error by FSD. Also rained on the drive home heavily 3 times, and fsd never gave up. It reduced its top available speed during the heavy rains and moved over to the slowest lane, but was able to at least stay at the speed limit. Sped back up again as the rain eased off to full hurry mode speed and performance!
Oh man, I used to live in Edmonds when I was a kid. I lived on Dayton right up the street from Old Mill Town. I miss that city, its a beautiful place. I also wish my car could get fsd over here. Sounds like you too would have had an interesting video if you had recorded it. Although, it's pretty much impossible to beat this amazing video! I can't get enough of these fsd videos!
@ElectrifiedJourneys Thanks. Will be recording and posting my drives soon. Just waiting for gear to arrive and set it up. Where I live here in the Southwest Washington area I have some super challenging commutes that push FSD to its limits naturally. I don't even need to go out and create some sort of special challenge course. My actual commutes are enough to show both the strength of fsd and things that they need to improve on, and there are multiple routes that are crazy, plus all the bridge traffic too.
Finally purchased Lifetime with v13 after living off of the free trials for a long time. This really proves how far it's come and how rapidly the improvements are coming. Thanks for taking the stress for us!
I am writing from Italy, I was born in 1975 and when I was about 10 years old I watched SUPERCAR, KITT on TV. I thought the car was driving itself, but obviously it was a TV series so it was all fake. Today, after 40 years, it is no longer fiction and when I tell people that Teslas drive themselves, I am the one laughing at those who don't believe. Excuse my English, I am using Google Translate. Greetings from Italy and thank you and best wishes to all the USA, the most beautiful nation in the world!! ❤️ 🇺🇸 ❤️ 👋
While not yet fully hands-free or stress-free, the improvements from earlier versions are evident, generating optimism among both longtime testers and new onlookers. The overall impression is that FSD is nearing a point where it can handle extremely dense urban environments with minimal intervention-an achievement once thought “impossible” for AI-driven cars in such complex traffic.
Incredible. This is even more impressive than the night drive in the rain. So many delivery trucks in narrow downtown streets during Christmas, crazy. Stressful.
I'm not sure why I find these FSD drives so entertaining - I don't have a Teela, I don't live in the USA and I don't drive. But thanks so much for the tour of the big apple.
This is cuz you're seeing the iPhone of cars before it becomes worldwide... it's coming in these next 4 years, at least in USA. Trump will ease regulations and Tesla will lap over its chinese competition
Ok, no other RUclipsr can claim any stress-testing anymore after this. This is the stressiest test I’ve ever seen and I’ve been watching many hundreds of FSD videos from the beginning!
I just stopped at 14:07 , just to comment that , you probably have the best FSD content right now. Just difficult scenarios, camera setup is very good, simple and straightforward commentary, just chill vibe overall and you're not picky and you let FSD do its thing safely. Also Manhattan is where people wanna see this work flawlessly so that's bonus. Keep it up until you're in a FSD robotaxi commenting :)
Please do a Queens Boulevard drive, especially around the Queens Mall area. Thanks, this has been very helpful in evaluating the state of FSD. Great job.
Awesome video! Can't believe you voluntarily subjected yourself to this long tortured route. I'm in Southern CA in a model Y, and often scoff at the wide-open spaces of FSD videos driving country roads and barely-occupied highways. Your Manhattan route looks like a narrow European city, and you did it in Cybertruck! Recover well, and thanks for the ride! (P.S. I discovered V13 downloading while watching this...Finally! 13.2.2.1 with the Holiday updates. yay!)
If this isn't witnessed by the Tesla crew, they are missing something amazing. NHTSA should watch this as well. I was the passenger, and my foot hit the brake pedal too many times, LOL Ty.
This is remarkable. Now I'd like to see how it does in the rain. Having driven these roads my whole life, I know first hand how treacherous these roads are. I am truly impressed. You should try going over the GW bridge from New Jersey and heading up to the RFK bridge. There's always that one gnarly pothole as you come off the bridge.
Version 13 videos are the only videos I've watched where no on intervenes in the cars driving. I test drove one last week and had the same experience. Its so good now.
Hi Jordan, thank you for your great FSD videos! The NYC ones gives me PTSD, and bring back memories of years of driving (manually indeed) in another similarly crazy capital city. And at the same time it brings a great confidence in the big progress the FSD is making with v13. I personally would drive manually in NYC only snow plow or garbage truck ... 🤣
Simply amazing. I've seen a lot of videos about FSD and this is truly the most amazing I've seen so far. I'm convinced that with a few changes to the laws, Tesla could do FSD in Tel Aviv without a problem. In Israel, for example, it's illegal to turn right on red. But these are small changes and Tesla could easily handle driving like this in Tel Aviv. India its a different story. Great video
I've watched a lot of FSD videos and this is by far the best stress test of FSD. KUDOS!!! Once there is awareness it will be crazy not to get a Tesla and use FSD.
This is completely crazy! Out of this world! I love your videos. Great camera perspective and brightness. One suggestion. Please comment more clearly when you intervene and for how long, because we can’t see your foot. Please also mention when people around you get annoyed from FSD.
I did note the only time I intervened which was by the bull downtown. I could try to capture the foot pedal but the camera is so awkward if I move it down more
@ I would not move the camera! It is just perfect like it is. Just mention it always clearly and it’s fine. Thanks for your great videos and pushing FSD to its limits!
Wow! What an incredible drive. I think we can safely say that FSD can be notched up to level 3 driving. With the fast improvements we have been seeing in just 6 months, next year should be the year that FSD can go fully autonomous.
Oh my word. The way people park in New York is insane. This should be policed more, and there should be delivery zones installed, so delivery trucks wouldn't need to park on a lane of traffic. I thought it was already pretty bad in Berlin, Germany, but this is a whole other level.
Looks like the car reacts to people waving...insane.... Thank you for a GREAT drive. This is indeed the most impressive drive I've seen in a long time. I have the feeling Tesla AI solved it.. the only things left are more sustainable parking moves and (apparently) parking garages...🙂
Amazing to see FSD dealing with all these mess in NYC traffic,the assertiveness and decision making are impressive. question,did you step on the accelerator except when you mentioned it?
Battery garage is a great stress test for FSD parking, you should keep testing new versions here. If it can handle that, it can handle any garage. They have an automatic plate reader to get in and out, so it could probably enter and exit on its own eventually. That would be a godsend if you live/work in FiDi since it’s the only public garage around. Also, that ramp of doom stresses me out every time I drive up or down it in my Model X
Another interesting test scenario nearby is navigating to Rector St while going southbound on West St. Probably one of the most insane sections of manhattan during rush hour. FSD version 12.5 (HW3) always makes a mistake here and doesn’t merge right fast enough to avoid being forced to take either the FDR exit or the tunnel exit - very bad. FSD has also had issues in tunnels like the Battery tunnel. The tight lanes and vertical lane dividers spook the car into going super slow. On past versions, it has even tried to merge into oncoming traffic by driving over the dividers. Tunnels also mess up the GPS causing FSD to get lost.
New York traffic is sooo sooo perfect for testing FSD. Thank you for showing us all this. I thank you as a TSLA investor! This is just such a stressful area. Cant wait for FSD to master autonomy so humans can just sleep through all these stressful areas in the world. By the way, is there anyway to smoothen out the camera vibrations? My eye just cant seems to get used to them, makes me alittle car sick. Amazing effort and work! I know the hours of work that goes into editing the video. Appreciate it.
When New Yorkers are on foot they lose 50 points of IQ. Great test by the way and thank you for sharing it was amazing to see. Video on busy challenging streets like these will help Tesla selling many more cars.
Amazing drive. I think this is the top difficulty level for driving in the big city. Now, we need to throw it in Vietnam or India to see how it deals with a maze of motorbikes around.
Viewer from India. India is the ultimate test but it will have to unlearn a lot of things like following lanes , waiting for pedestrians not blocking intersections. These things don't apply here
That was a very relaxing video. Great demo. I would love to see the upper third of the screen with footage from a 360 camera in equirectangular projection I so that we can see more from the vehicles sorrounding and for sightseeing purposes 😊 Never been to NY.
I'm an "OG" FSD beta tester with >4 years of FSD experience and I think this is the most impressive FSD video I've ever seen. It has come SO far and it almost there!
Means a lot! The car performs so well but I also give it a long lease to cost me lol
This is the most competent FSD drive I’ve ever seen in one of the busiest places on earth. This has gotten crazy good. Thanks so much for posting.
It’s that good. I wasn’t lying about the video in the title haha

Yeah, this is Albania-level chaos. UK driving should be no problem.
They should test it inplace like india.

@@VasuJaganath “Never” 😂
Yes, this equals the London mirror scraping experience. Inspires confidence.

Same here this guys videos are highlight after highlight
I cant believe it actually drove in Manhattan. Many prefer not to drive in Manhattan due to how hectic it gets. This is next level stuff. I think its getting close to L4 or even L5 autonomous driving.
It's already at L4, just legally it is still L2.
Tesla could already be doing the same L4 as waymo. They are just biding time to hit it big.
The dimensionally smaller Cybercab will make quick work of a lot of these tight spaces.
The instant reaction to the waving pedestrian at 7:54 is nuts. If you didn't specify the car did this I would have accused you of pressing the accelerator 🤯
That was crazy to watch!!
It was INSTANT reaction! 😍😍😍😍
THIS is impressive
This is the FSD drive I think I've always been waiting for. Almost 3rd world density, ready for London, etc etc. Breathtaking, thank you.

They have made it ! This is clearly driving better than a human and at least equally good as any Waymo .
Should be on the news .
And Waymo is geolocked to specific small areas while FSD can be taken pretty much anywhere, it's insane
Very cool. I took mine through Boston’s North End, which is similarly insane. It drove perfectly, and that was with v12…
Should go by the Tesla Store on 14th a block off the river. Nice Video!
Great video!! Fsd 13 is really good. You might encounter some superhuman driving stuff.

Another interesting test scenario nearby is navigating to Rector St while going southbound on West St. Probably one of the most insane sections of manhattan during rush hour. FSD version 12.5 (HW3) always makes a mistake here and doesn’t merge right fast enough to avoid being forced to take either the FDR exit or the tunnel exit - very bad.
FSD has also had issues in tunnels like the Battery tunnel. The tight lanes and vertical lane dividers spook the car into going super slow. On past versions, it has even tried to merge into oncoming traffic by driving over the dividers. Tunnels also mess up the GPS causing FSD to get lost.
insane progress!!
WOOOW! That's crazy! Thanks for sharing!
FSD made so many human-like decisions it was uncanny. It's hard to believe Waymo claims to be ahead of Tesla in self driving.
Damn! This is good!
28:02 - The reversing at right turn move was wild 💥 we going places
New York traffic is sooo sooo perfect for testing FSD. Thank you for showing us all this. I thank you as a TSLA investor!
This is just such a stressful area. Cant wait for FSD to master autonomy so humans can just sleep through all these stressful areas in the world.
By the way, is there anyway to smoothen out the camera vibrations?
My eye just cant seems to get used to them, makes me alittle car sick.
Amazing effort and work! I know the hours of work that goes into editing the video. Appreciate it.
Thank you for letting FSD drive through the FDR potholes for science !! 🙏🏻
Get the Tesla haters to watch this video. Absolutely awesome display of FSD. How does anyone drive in New York????
Awesome! It's insane what FSD can already do 🎉
Most of the guys posting FSD content dont trust the car knows its size. Your solved that . Nice
I like to live on the edge what can I say haha
Shockingly good!!
When New Yorkers are on foot they lose 50 points of IQ.
Great test by the way and thank you for sharing it was amazing to see.
Video on busy challenging streets like these will help Tesla selling many more cars.
Awesome!! 😍😍😍 Very similar traffic situations to what we have here in Spain, so I'm looking forward to European authorities to allow FSD over here 👏👏👏
Great video man
I admire adjusting the mirror - for like...whatever reason!! Cool video though!
It was crooked haha. Bothering me
As my grandma used to say, “my heinie was workin’ buttonholes” all the way through that video!
Amazing drive. I think this is the top difficulty level for driving in the big city. Now, we need to throw it in Vietnam or India to see how it deals with a maze of motorbikes around.
Viewer from India. India is the ultimate test but it will have to unlearn a lot of things like following lanes , waiting for pedestrians not blocking intersections. These things don't apply here
Liked and subbed, well done roboMX
That was a very relaxing video. Great demo. I would love to see the upper third of the screen with footage from a 360 camera in equirectangular projection I so that we can see more from the vehicles sorrounding and for sightseeing purposes 😊
Never been to NY.
@@aerolynx2700 I thought about this but driving around NYC with a camera on a pole is a good way to attract more attention than we want lol
@@savagejunkie96valid point. Maybe you find a sneaky way of hiding it. Keep it up 💪
My experience has been the same, I was a FSD skeptic a week ago, today I would say FSD is between Level 3 and Level 4.
great video!!
Good job, buddy.
Outstanding job?! It wore me out just watching! 4:08
Incredible!
