Tesla signals active HW3 development after months of silence

An Australian Tesla owner shared that they received an email from Tesla Australia stating "Active Development Underway" regarding Hardware 3 vehicles. According to the post on X, this marks "the first time we've received an actual update in months regarding hw3 cars from @TeslaAUNZ."

The message suggests Tesla is resuming work on features or software for its older Hardware 3 fleet after an extended period without communication. Hardware 3 is Tesla's third-generation onboard computer, deployed in vehicles prior to the current Hardware 4 systems. The specifics of what development is underway were not disclosed in the notification.

The update comes as Tesla continues rolling out FSD capabilities and software improvements across its fleet globally. Details on timeline or scope of changes for HW3 vehicles remain unclear.
