Musk said that Tesla FSD may land in China soon.
[car home News] A few days ago, a Tesla China owner asked Musk on social media, "I expect Tesla FSD (fully autonomous driving) to enter China as soon as possible. I don’t know when it will be realized. When can HW3.0 system model images in 3D? When can the new parking assist be pushed to the owner of Tesla HW3.0 in China? "In this regard, Musk replied that "it may be realized soon.".At the same time, we can see that Tesla’s website shows that Tesla has reduced the price of fully automatic driving (FSD) package from $12,000 to $8,000 in the United States.
Since March this year, Tesla has started to deploy its software update to promote the latest FSD V12.3 beta version, which was integrated into the software update of 2023.44.30.25. Tesla CEO elon musk bluntly said: "This is a major release, and it can be said that it should be called V13."
Since its first launch on October 20, 2020, FSD has only been available in Beta in North America. Tesla released new software updates through beta to verify its latest autonomous driving technology and improve performance. At present, the system can’t realize full automatic driving, and it needs the supervision of the driver.
Last November, it was reported that Tesla FSD Beta was about to enter China. Tesla China official website updated the owner’s manual of China with FSD Beta, which indicates that FSD will soon land in China. Taking the new Tesla Model 3 as an example, it costs 64,000 yuan to install the FSD. After the installation, it can realize the functions of recognizing and responding to traffic lights and stop signs, and automatically assisting driving in urban streets.
Tesla has made a lot of preparations before landing in FSD in China. In 2021, a data center was established in Shanghai. All data generated by China business, including production data, sales data, service data and charging data, are completely stored in China to meet regulatory requirements. In addition, Tesla set up an FSD operation team and a data labeling team in Shanghai, and sent engineers from this department to do training. However, Tesla China once responded to the domestic media that "it is really in progress at present". (Compile/car home Wang Yin)
