Tesla update forks features for Model 3s built pre/post April 2019

Then on Thursday we also shared a video of a Tesla navigating its way through traffic cones, courtesy Tesla hacker @greentheonly. Now @greentheonly is reporting that the traffic cone feature is only being delivered to Tesla owners with the ‘Hardware 3’ chip (HW3).
