Tesla skipped the fifth most-voted HW3 question on its earnings call
On the Q3 2026 earnings call, Tesla skipped the shareholder question about HW3 that ranked fifth on the Say platform, with 557 votes and 652,900 shares. The question asked when HW3 owners would know whether they can upgrade their hardware for free. Travis Axelrod read nine Say questions, but not this one, and no analyst raised it. Ashok Elluswamy said the same software will come to customers with FSD v15, and that the first customer vehicles could join the Robotaxi fleet somewhere around Q2 next year.…
- The HW3 question ranked fifth on Say, with 557 votes and 652,900 shares.
- Travis Axelrod read nine Say questions; the HW3 one was not among them.
🔎 Why it matters: Tesla sold FSD for up to $15,000 on the promise that its cars already had the hardware, and the call gave no cost or date for HW3.
📈 Upside: Not applicable.
📉 Risk: Tesla faces class actions in the US, China, and Australia, plus a Dutch collective claim of nearly 7,000 HW3 owners, with no plan announced on the call.
