Tesla reveals over 10 billion km driven with FSD Supervised self-driving software

Tesla has ramped up its efforts on Full Self-Driving (FSD) in recent months, expanding its rollout to markets outside North America, including Australia and New Zealand. 

A week after the local launch, Tesla shared that it had reached 1 million km driven with drivers using the software on our roads.

Now, the brand has shared data around its FSD Supervised usage, which has hit over 10 billion km, ahead of a massive ramp-up expected in 2026.

In an email to encourage further use by owners, being able to gift 1 month of FSD Supervised membership to others ahead of the holiday season, Tesla said:

“With FSD (Supervised) enabled, Tesla vehicles can handle the drive from start to finish with minimal intervention. And with over 6.7 billion miles of driving experience, FSD (Supervised) can improve road safety and reduce the likelihood of a collision.”

6.7 billion miles of FSD Supervised enabled driving equates to 10.8 billion km, which is quite a feat, and is expected to quickly ramp up from here with incentives like the free 30-day trial offered in some markets, such as North America, around this upcoming holiday season.

Tesla has further expanded the rollout of FSD supervised in recent months, including markets such as South Korea.

Earlier this month, Tesla launched FSD Supervised service in various European countries with a condition. That is the result of the European regulatory framework, which is yet to approve the FSD Supervised suite across Europe.

The catch with the initial European rollout is that it will be offered as passenger rides, instead of experiencing it in the driver’s seat. 

Tesla described that experience, initially to owners and residents in Italy, France and Germany as: “Ride along in the passenger seat to experience how it handles real-world traffic & the most stressful parts of daily driving, making the roads safer for all”.

The company has been pushing ahead in multiple markets, despite the approval hurdles, as its software shows thousands of use cases where accidents were prevented, or impact minimised when the FSD Supervised software was in use.

One recently compiled video really highlighted this with footage from the cars highlighting the impact. 

With the expansion of the FSD Supervised into newer markets and the introduction of promos offering free or gifted trials, it’s only a matter of time before we see the total distance covered supercharged, helping lower accidents and making our roads safer.
