EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) will roll out its full self-driving (FSD) driver assistance software in Europe and China in the first quarter of 2025, pending regulatory approval, the company said on Thursday.
What Happened: The team unveiled its roadmap for FSD improvements on social media platform X, citing popular demand.
Tesla will focus on improving FSD throughout this year in the U.S. and on deploying the software on its latest vehicle offering – the Cybertruck.
Starting in the first quarter of next year, however, the company will roll it out in Europe and China, given they receive the necessary approvals, the company said.
Why It Matters: FSD is the advanced version of the company’s autopilot driver assistance technology. The name is a misnomer and doesn’t allow for completely autonomous driving as of today.
Musk, however, is optimistic that Tesla will solve autonomy in time with FSD. The company is also looking to unveil a dedicated robotaxi product in the U.S. on Oct. 10.
“Even if I got kidnapped by aliens tomorrow, Tesla will solve autonomy, maybe a little slower, but it would solve autonomy for vehicles at least,” Musk said during Tesla's first-quarter earnings call. “If somebody doesn’t believe Tesla is going to solve autonomy, I think they should not be an investor in the company.”
Musk reiterated the same sentiment during the company's second-quarter earnings call last month.
