According to Sawyer Merritt on X, Tesla said the Netherlands RDW communicated that FSD (Supervised) could be approved on April 10, paving a path for broader EU approvals, and the jump from legacy Autopilot to FSD V14 for AI4 Teslas would be significant. As reported by Sawyer Merritt citing Tesla, the company conducted 13,000+ customer ride-alongs, 4,500+ track test scenarios, compiled thousands of pages for 400+ compliance requirements, and ran dozens of safety studies to support certification. According to Sawyer Merritt, if RDW greenlights FSD (Supervised), early European deployment could accelerate data collection for long-tail edge cases, enabling faster iteration of Tesla’s end-to-end neural network driving stack and potential revenue uplift from software subscriptions. As reported by Sawyer Merritt, the approval timeline and scope remain contingent on RDW’s final decision and subsequent country-level clearances across Europe.

According to Sawyer Merritt on Twitter, Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) V14.2.2.4 demonstrated impressive navigation and control during a real-world drive in 18 inches of fresh snowfall. The video commentary highlights how V14 continues to handle harsh winter road conditions, providing insights into the robustness of Tesla’s advanced driver-assistance system. As reported by Sawyer Merritt, these results underscore potential advancements in autonomous vehicle reliability in adverse weather, which could further enhance Tesla’s market position and expand business opportunities for real-world autonomous driving solutions.
