The FSD Distribution Chart does not make sense to me. With over 1 million vehicles with FSD, Chart, chart says 56%, or 1,059 cars (should be around 600K) have 13.2.1 version. Those numbers done make sense.Can anyone explain where I am messing up? I have a new model 3 with FSD and I am still waiting. It is so frustrating as it is incredibly unbelievable. I don't know why anyone would want anything else. Merry Christmas!!

(My understanding) The chart is from people who are using the Tesla-Fi - https://www.teslafi.com/firmware.php
That's a paid subscription app? Helps you analyze your car at almost the molecular level :) .
My question is- I thought the total number of cars reporting was closer to > 16K but now it's low 2k?

Let me shed some light here.
As Prescott said, the numbers you see across the site are only a small percentage of the overall Tesla fleet, although big enough to give us a very good understanding of which updates are going out and more. They're based on vehicles tracked via TeslaFi.

The numbers you see on the main software updates page are based on the entire tracked fleet. So 10% would mean 10% of the tracked fleet. However, the numbers on the FSD Updates page, are based on only the vehicles with a FSD specific update, so 10% here wouldn't mean 10% of the tracked fleet, but instead 10% of the users with a FSD specific update. Right now due to many HW3 users moving over to a regular feature update due to HW3 vehicles not supporting the latest FSD versions, the numbers end up being skewed, but this should be corrected once Tesla releases FSD 12.6 for HW3 cars.

I hope that helps, but big improvements are coming to these update pages that will let you track things much more granularly.

That totally makes sense! Thank you. Wow, a lot of HW3 cars out there waiting for FSD updates.
