Tesla’s latest software update in Europe does more than its release notes say. Update 2026.39.100, which includes FSD v14.2.2.6, renames FSD (Supervised) to Tesla Assisted Driving (TAD). “This change only updates the name of certain features and text in your vehicle, and does not change the way your features behave,” the release notes read.
However, that’s not the whole story. One of our readers, Addie, let us know that the update also lowers the maximum Speed Offset from +50% to +10% and resets it to 0% every time the car starts. Neither change is mentioned in the release notes, and several owners, including Addie, only noticed after installing the update.
What Changed
Speed Offset lets FSD drive above the posted speed limit by a set percentage. Before this update, European owners could set it as high as +50%. Now the limit is +10%, and the offset goes back to 0% each time you start a drive. That means you’ll need to set it again on every trip if you want FSD to go over the limit at all.

These are the same changes the Dutch RDW approved earlier this month, when it also notified the other EU countries that adopted its original approval framework to bring FSD to their roads. However, there was no announcement that the changes were already rolling out, and the release notes don’t mention them either.
Why Tesla Made the Change
The Speed Offset cap was one of the main changes several EU countries wanted. France and Sweden, along with road safety groups like the European Transport Safety Council, raised concerns about FSD being able to drive well over the speed limit. Germany later said it would back FSD in the upcoming vote for EU-wide approval if Tesla capped Speed Offset at 10% and renamed FSD to Tesla Assisted Driving.
With both changes now live, Tesla has met Germany’s two main requests ahead of December’s vote on bloc-wide approval. Regulators have said more changes are expected before then, mostly aimed at keeping drivers alert. Hopefully, Tesla’s future release notes will explain those changes more clearly so owners know what they’re installing.
Tesla’s home charger just got more expensive again. The standard Wall Connector now costs $635 in the U.S., up from $585, while the Universal Wall Connector has jumped from $660 to $720 (via @DennisCW_).
Even at the higher price, the Wall Connector is still limited to Tesla owners. Tesla’s online store says you need to sign in with a Tesla account that has a registered vehicle to buy one, noting that “Tesla ownership is required while supplies are limited.” Financing starts at $58 per month.
Fourth Price Increase This Year
This is the fourth time Tesla has raised the standard Wall Connector’s price in 2026. It started the year at $450 and climbed to $485 in the spring. Then, in early July, it rose to $535, which Tesla timed with the Model Y L launch. In September, Tesla raised it again to $585 and bumped the Universal Wall Connector from $600 to $660.

Here’s how the standard Wall Connector’s price has changed this year:
Early 2026: $450
Spring 2026: $485
July 2026: $535
September 2026: $585
November 2026: $635
That’s a $185 increase, or about 41%, in less than a year. The Universal Wall Connector, which has a built-in J1772 adapter for non-Tesla EVs, has gone up $120 since the start of the year.
Prices are going up in other markets too. The Wall Connector now costs $885 CAD in Canada, up from $815, and $890 AUD in Australia. Tesla hasn’t said why it keeps raising prices, but climbing copper costs are likely playing a role.
Still Useful for Tesla Owners
The Wall Connector adds up to 44 miles of range per hour at 11.5 kW, and it connects to Wi-Fi for over-the-air updates, remote diagnostics, and access controls in the Tesla app.

It’s also become more useful lately. Firmware 26.34 added smart charging for Powerwall owners, letting the Wall Connector charge your car when energy is cheapest or from excess solar, depending on what mode you’re running your Powerwall in. Tesla also recently launched Powershare home backup for the Model 3 and Model Y, which lets your car power your home during an outage, and the Wall Connector is part of that setup.
If you were planning to buy a Wall Connector, it may be worth doing it sooner rather than later. With four price increases this year and new features like Powershare tied to it, there’s little sign that prices will drop again anytime soon.
