[Pacific Auto Network New Car Channel] Recently, we learned from foreign media that Tesla will be produced from October, Model 3 (query the lowest price | check the parameters) and Model Y will no longer be equipped with ultrasonic radar. The subsequent safety and driving assistance functions will only rely on the pure visual solution of the camera to complete.

It is reported that the front and rear bumpers of Model 3/Model Y are currently equipped with 12 ultrasonic radars. Short-range sound radars are mainly used for parking and detecting close-range objects. The ultrasonic radar on Tesla Model S/ Model X will be removed in 2023. Previously, due to chip shortages, Tesla began to abandon the mmWave radar last year. Musk said that it can achieve full autonomous driving just by using the camera.


In addition, in addition to the new visual solution not being launched, the functions of the new car will be restricted, including parking assist , automatic parking, front and rear summoning, intelligent summoning and other functions, will not be enabled for the time being, but will not affect the collision safety level.
