Ashok Elluswamy, Tesla’s VP of AI, mentioned that better handling of audio inputs is coming as part of FSD V13.4. That’ll be an interesting change, as the current handling of emergency vehicles on V13.2.1 is already pretty good. However, we’re sure that being able to recognize emergency vehicles audibly will improve.

There was never any plan to make all the superchargers solar. The chargers are at mercy of the local utility and the local governing laws regarding solar production and net metering. The cost to make awnings large enough to trickle charge a battery storage device would be extremely expensive.

Customer ServiceTesla has unveiled plans for a new Supercharger project called ''Oasis'', which will include 168 Superchargers combined with its own solar farm and Megapack battery system.
Customer ServiceTesla apparently made an Earth Day announcement that flew under the radar: The automaker intends to power all Supercharger stations with renewable energy this year.
Customer ServiceIn 2017, CEO Elon Musk said that Tesla plans to add solar and batteries to all Supercharger stations and eventually disconnect most of them from the grid. This has yet to happen. Tesla currently operates the largest global electric vehicle charging network with over 24,000 Superchargers at over 2,700 locations around the world.
For example, in Quebec, all of Tesla’s Superchargers are powered by Hydro Quebec’s hydropower electricity. Adding solar power at the station is not the only solution for places where the grid is powered by fossil fuels. For example, Rivian recently announced its own charging network, which it claims will be solely powered by renewable energy.
But the most interesting piece of information here is that Tesla apparently plans for “all Supercharger energy to be 100% renewable in 2021.” Tesla does have some solar power at some Supercharger stations, but for the most part, its charging stations are powered by the grid and from whatever source of electricity owned by the local utilities.
Early in the deployment of the Supercharger network, Tesla promised to add solar arrays and batteries to the Supercharger stations, and CEO Elon Musk even said that most stations would be able to operate off-grid.
Here’s how it works. Tesla’s Supercharger network is already one of the best electric car charging networks around, and it’s about to get a lot better. That's because it looks like the first V4 Supercharger is coming to Arizona (via @MarcoRPTesla), and plans reveal that it will offer more than just the potential for faster charging.
The charging network’s main reason for installing the batteries is to curb the demand charges, especially in California. Meanwhile, Tesla’s own cost of Supercharging is surging, especially in California. In Southern California, Tesla’s supercharger prices have increased to between $0.46 and $0.58 per kWh for daytime charging.
