Tesla has rolled out FSD V14, and owners are already noting clear gains in how the car behaves on winter roads. With the first snowfalls in Canada and the United States, the system handled slick surfaces with more confidence, correcting slides and holding its line even when grip was scarce.FSD V14 reached users in October 2025 as Tesla’s most advanced driver-assistance suite to date. Refined road-condition analysis helps the car adapt to ice and snow, though cameras still struggle when lenses ice over or fog up. Despite the progress, the company stresses that drivers must remain in charge: the system cannot bend the laws of physics.Test videos from Quebec show the car taking snow-covered corners with poise, dialing back oversteer as it appears. Some users say speeds in those conditions still feel higher than comfortable, but the composure on ice is striking. In winter, predictability matters more than outright pace, and that’s where the improvements stand out most.Elon Musk said FSD would soon let drivers divert their attention to a smartphone and, in later versions, even sleep behind the wheel. Regulators are unlikely to sign off on that level of autonomy anytime soon. Even so, FSD V14 already shows how close the company has come to a winter-ready self-driving experience.
