Tesla recently posted on social media, claiming that the Dutch regulatory agency RDW has promised to approve its driving assistance system called "Full Self-Driving" FSD (Full Self-Driving) in February 2026, and called on users to express support and gratitude to the regulatory agency. However, RDW quickly issued a statement on its official website to clarify that Tesla will demonstrate its FSD Supervised system in February next year, but it is still unclear whether it will be approved as planned.
RDW emphasized that whether the final approval can be reached on time depends on the actual progress in the next period of time, and reiterated its emphasis on traffic safety.
Relevant reports pointed out that Tesla vehicles come standard with the automatic driving assistance system Autopilot. Users can pay $8,000 to purchase the FSD Supervised version, which will provide more functions such as automatic steering on highways and ordinary roads, automatic lane changes, and more. However, FSD is not currently equivalent to fully autonomous driving. The driver must pay attention and hold the steering wheel with both hands at all times.
Currently, FSD Supervised has been launched in Australia, Canada, China, Mexico, New Zealand, Puerto Rico and the United States. Access to the European market is still awaiting further approval results.
