Tesla has officially released the Cybertruck’s first driver assistance feature. As Cybertruck owners reported on social media, their all-electric pickup truck received Tesla Vision Park Assist with the 2024.26.11 update.
Earlier this week, comments on social media platform X from Tesla Director of Autopilot Software Ashok Elluswamy suggested that the Cybertruck’s first driver-assistance feature would be introduced later this week. According to the Tesla executive, the Cybertruck will “start with parking assist features” since the vehicle isn’t exactly the easiest to park. He also noted that FSD for the Cybertruck is expected to be released in September.
True to Elluswamy’s comments, Tesla released its Vision Park Assist feature for the Cybertruck this weekend. The release of the feature was warmly welcomed on social media, with many stating that the feature was long overdue for the vehicle.
Below you will find the release notes for Tesla Vision Park Assist for the Cybertruck.
Look what’s on my @cybertruckBuild 2024.26.11, which includes Park Vision Park Assist. FSD Supervised is not installed in this build yet, hopefully in September, according to Ashok. @Tesla_AI pic.twitter.com/pCc58jeYBE

Tesla Vision Parking Assistant
Tesla Vision Park Assist now displays a high-resolution 3D representation of the world around your vehicle, including the proximity and shape of nearby objects, barriers, vehicles and painted road markings.
You can use Park Assist with or without audible feedback. To turn the beep on or off, go to Controls > Safety > Park Assist Beep.
Please note that the parking assistant is for guidance only and is not a substitute for an attentive driver. Stay alert and avoid obstacles if necessary.
Here is a short video in the driveway with a first look at the @cybertruck Vision Park Assist. I will make a full video later today, please give me ideas on what would be good to see. Enjoy! @Tesla_AI pic.twitter.com/o1ywaSl2AV

It should be noted that the feature that the Cybertruck received this weekend is Vision Parking Assistantnot Vision Car Park. Thus, the feature only gives drivers a good overview of the space around them when maneuvering their Cybertruck into a parking space. The feature does not park the all-electric pickup truck itself. However, now that Vision Park Assist has been released for the Cybertruck, it would not be surprising to see more driver assistance features integrated into the vehicle in the coming weeks.
