, Elon Musk’s electric vehicle company on Thursday said that the service — which comes as a paid add-on feature for Tesla customers — is slated for launch in the two regions in the first quarter of 2025, “pending regulatory approval.”

Tesla is yet to receive regulatory permission to launch its FSD product in Europe and China, but Musk in July said that he expects to get this clearance by the end of 2024.

So-called Full Self Driving, or FSD, has been a key pillar of Musk’s strategy to make Tesla a more AI-centric company and push toward self-driving technology.

Despite the label on its product, FSD is not actually capable of making its vehicles fully autonomous. Drivers are still required to sit behind the wheel and keep their eyes on the roads, as well as take over when needed.

FSD is an upgrade to Tesla’s Autopilot driver assistant, which is already available in Europe and China. Tesla has also already offered a limited version of its FSD technology for years in the ****** country.

Since 2016, Musk has promised investors that Tesla will deliver technology capable of making cars drive entirely by themselves. The company has so far ******* to deliver on this commitment due to technical and regulatory limitations.
