Recently, according to people familiar with the matter, Tesla has officially begun to launch its FSD (full automatic driving) test version in the Canadian market - which marks the first international expansion of Tesla's new assisted driving system.
Since October 2020, Tesla has been gradually rolling out its Full Self Driving Beta (FSD Beta), an early version of its future "self-driving software" that is currently being tested by a group of Tesla owners in the U.S. and is only available to users who voluntarily apply and pass its Safety Test Score.
With FSD, you can enter a position and make the vehicle automatically navigate the road, but the driver needs to be alert and ready to take control at all times.
Since the responsibility lies with the driver and not with Tesla's system, while it can be applied to most situations at the moment, it is still considered an L2-level assisted driving system, and the owner must always be ready to take over manual driving. It is worth mentioning that since the release of the beta version, Tesla has been frequently updating the FSD Beta software version and expanding more users for it.
As of the fourth quarter of 2021, Tesla has nearly 60,000 test owners in the FSD Beta program, but these test owners are all in the United States.
Yesterday, Tesla has extended its FSD beta to Canada, of course, this is not unexpected, because Musk has repeatedly promised to expand the FSD Beta in Canada.
At the same time, Tesla has begun to push the latest software update (2022.4.5.4) to some owners in Canada, which enables these vehicles to "apply for FSD beta", and if owners choose to request, then Tesla will "safety score" for their daily driving situation.
