Tesla Cybertruck is getting one piece of the Full Self-Driving suite soon
The Tesla Cybertruck has yet to get the entire Full Self-Driving (Supervised) suite, but according to one member of the AI and Autopilot team, the all-electric pickup is set to get one piece of it soon.
The Full Self-Driving (Supervised) suite has seven distinct functions: Navigate on Autopilot, Auto Lane Change, Autopark, Summon, Smart Summon, Autosteer on City Streets, and Traffic and Stop Sign Control.
Each specific feature helps partially automate some of the responsibilities of driving, granted the driver still pays attention and is ready to take control of the vehicle.
While the four original Tesla vehicles, meaning the Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y all have the FSD suite available to them, the company’s most recent vehicle release, the Cybertruck, has yet to have the semi-autonomous functionality available to it.
However, Tesla Autopilot and AI team member Ashok Elluswamy subtly confirmed the Cybertruck would get one of those features this weekend, perhaps in a limited release:
We are glad that you finally learnt how to park yourself. Looking forward to you showing this off this weekend.

It seems that Tesla may be preparing to give the Cybertruck at least some of the features of the FSD Supervised suite.
In late August, Elluswamy said that the Cybertruck’s FSD rollout would start with parking assistance features:
Cybertruck will start with parking assistance features, given that it ain’t exactly the easiest vehicle to park. Initial release is slated for end of this week. FSD for Cybertruck expected in Sep.

The full FSD Supervised suite should be available later this month, but Tesla is not always on time with its announced deadlines.
In May, CEO Elon Musk said that Cybertruck FSD was “a few months away,” so we’re getting pretty close to the tail end of that estimation.
