Tesla has kept a promise of enabling its ‘Enhanced Autopilot’ function by the end of 2016 starting with a fleet 1000 vehicles that feature a beta version of the new software.

Announced on New Years Eve, this update represents the first time the vehicle's features are powered by Tesla’s new hardware suite known as HW2 as well as the ‘Tesla Vision’ software adaptation.

According to Telsa founder Elon Musk, this will enable Tesla to launch and/or improve features quickly and more often. Additionally, Musk says Tesla remains on-track to launch full self-driving capability by the end of 2017.

However, given the much-publicized fatal crash involving a Tesla using the previous generation of Autopilot, Tesla is being understandably conservative about this 2016 year-end Enhanced Autopilot roll-out.
