Overview
- Tesla says it has finished the final RDW vehicle testing phase for Full Self-Driving (Supervised) in the Netherlands and submitted its documentation for review.
- The company says the Dutch regulator has indicated April 10 as the expected approval date, a delay from the previously touted March 20 target.
- RDW had earlier corrected Tesla’s claims of a committed timeline and is currently conducting an internal review of the test results package.
- If the Netherlands grants national approval, other European countries could recognize it under mutual recognition rules, and Tesla says an EU-wide decision could come in the summer.
- In the U.S., NHTSA upgraded its FSD probe to an Engineering Analysis covering about 3.2 million vehicles from model years 2023–2025, focusing on detection of system degradation and driver inattention.
