Frequently Asked Questions

Is Tesla FSD available in Europe right now?
Yes — in the Netherlands only, as of April 10, 2026. FSD Supervised (v14 / firmware 2026.3.6) is live for Dutch Tesla owners. Other EU countries are pending approval via mutual recognition or the EU-wide TCMV vote. Germany, France, and Italy are expected in May–June 2026.
What is the price of Tesla FSD Supervised in Europe?
In the Netherlands: €99/month (standard), €49/month (prior Enhanced Autopilot owners), or €7,500 outright purchase. Pricing in other EU countries is expected to be similar once approved. See our full pricing guide.
What regulation covers FSD in Europe?
Tesla FSD Supervised is approved under UN Regulation 171 (UN R-171), the EU standard governing Driver Control Assistance Systems (DCAS). This is a Level 2 driver-assist system requiring constant human supervision at all times. The RDW (Netherlands) was the first EU authority to grant type approval under this framework.
Is FSD in Europe the same as the US version?
No — the European version (FSD v14 EU, equivalent to FSD 14.2.2.5) is a specifically adapted branch of the software. It includes European road sign recognition, left-hand traffic rule adaptations, different roundabout handling, and compliance with UN R-171 safety requirements. Feature parity with the US version is a development roadmap item. See our detailed comparison.
When will FSD be available in Germany, France and Italy?
Tesla publicly targets May–June 2026 (4–8 weeks after the April 10 Netherlands approval) for Germany (KBA), France (DREAL), and Italy (MIT). Each country can adopt the Dutch RDW approval via mutual recognition, requiring no full re-testing. An EU-wide TCMV vote could deliver simultaneous rollout to all 27 member states.
What is mutual recognition for FSD approval?
Under UN vehicle regulations, once one EU member state (the Netherlands) grants type approval under UN R-171, other EU member states can directly recognise that approval without requiring full re-testing. This "mutual recognition" mechanism means the Netherlands' RDW approval can cascade rapidly to all 27 EU countries via national notifications — much faster than independent approval processes.
