"Regulators from Sweden, Germany, and France have raised concerns that Tesla's safety claims for FSD are based predominantly on US driving conditions, which do not fully accommodate EU traffic environments."
"The disconnect documented by Reuters suggests that Tesla's ambitious timeline for EU-wide approval in Q2-Q3 2026 may be overly optimistic, potentially extending the rollout timeline significantly."
"Musk's public confidence regarding FSD rollout has run ahead of the underlying regulatory reality, indicating a gap between expectations and regulatory assessments."
Internal EU regulator correspondence reveals skepticism regarding Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) safety claims and rollout strategy. Regulators from Sweden, Germany, and France have expressed concerns that Tesla's safety assertions are primarily based on US driving conditions, which do not fully account for the differences in EU traffic environments. Although Tesla has a Dutch type approval and is adapting its software, the documented disconnect may extend the rollout timeline from six months to 12 or 18 months. Upcoming committee meetings will clarify the regulatory landscape.
