Tesla's upgraded Autopilot to roll out mid-December

Should you happen to be one of the first drivers to buy a Tesla Model S or Model X with Enhanced Autopilot support, you're probably wondering when you'll actually start getting those features. Well, the mystery's over. Elon Musk informs a new Model S owner that the Enhanced Autopilot update should start rolling out in "about three weeks", or sometime in mid-December, Engadget said.

As referenced during the self-driving reveal, the plan is to inch toward the late 2017 goal of full autonomy through incremental "monthly releases." Features like an upgraded Autosteer (using the newer cars' extra cameras) and Smart Summon (which isn't limited to moving the car in a straight line) are on the way.
