Tesla has advanced its efforts to deploy Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology in Europe, with testing underway in Germany and Spain. The company released videos demonstrating FSD operation in Berlin and Madrid, highlighting that the system is currently supervised and awaiting regulatory approval. Tesla is seeking approval under an Article 39 exemption of EU Regulation 2018/858, which allows temporary authorization as innovative technology and bypasses delays associated with the UNECE DCAS regulation. This regulatory pathway could expedite Tesla's ability to launch supervised FSD in European markets. In Spain, Madrid is positioned to be a key city for Tesla's robotaxi services pending approval. The Spanish Directorate General of Traffic (DGT) and the Madrid city government have requested explanations from Tesla regarding autonomous driving tests. Meanwhile, other automakers like Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche are intensifying their autonomous vehicle efforts in Europe, aiming to reduce costs and maintain robotaxi ambitions amid a regulatory environment that has previously slowed adoption. Tesla also recently updated its European websites to reflect the upcoming FSD supervised launch. Additionally, Tesla's FSD version 13 reportedly prevented a head-on collision on a highway, demonstrating advancements in safety features. The European autonomous vehicle market is gaining momentum despite historically stringent regulations and the absence of major homegrown tech giants, with Texas noted as a leading region for autonomous vehicle testing in the U.S. Tesla continues to lead electric vehicle sales in Spain, setting a new record.
