Imagine this: You’re in your Tesla, going from your home to the sunny beaches by the Mediterranean Sea. You feel sleepy, so you take a nap. The car drives all by itself – through big highways, twisty mountain roads, and busy towns. It stops at lights, changes lanes, and parks when you get there. Wow!
This cool thing is called Full Self-Driving (Supervised), or FSD for short.
Right now, people in places like America, China, Australia, and New Zealand can use it.
But in Europe, it’s not ready yet because of strict rules about car safety.
Tesla is working super hard to get permission. They are talking a lot with people in charge in the Netherlands.
Tesla hopes to show in February 2026 that FSD is safe.
If it works there, other European countries might say yes too!
To show everyone how good it is, Tesla is giving free rides right now. You sit in the passenger seat while a Tesla worker drives, and the car does the work. These rides started in Germany, France, and Italy.
So many people wanted to try it that Tesla made it longer — until the end of March 2026! Now it’s also in Denmark and Switzerland.
People who tried it say it’s amazing.
The car drives smoothly in narrow streets, busy cities, and even construction zones. It’s still “supervised,” which means a person has to watch, but it’s way smarter than regular driving help.
Europe has tough rules to keep roads safe, and that’s good!
But Tesla says FSD can make roads even safer because it doesn’t get tired or distracted like people sometimes do.
So, when can you nap on the way to the Mediterranean? Probably early 2026, if everything goes well. Hang on, European Tesla friends — it’s coming soon!
