Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) driver-assistance software became available in Lithuania in May 2026, making it the second European country to approve the system after the Netherlands granted authorization last month.
The European rollout is tied to Tesla’s broader goal of reaching 10 million active FSD subscriptions by 2035 — a target linked to CEO Elon Musk’s $1 trillion compensation package. As of Tesla’s first-quarter earnings call in April 2026, the company reported nearly 1.3 million paying FSD customers globally, leaving it well short of that figure.
FSD (Supervised) first launched in beta in late 2020. The system handles steering, lane changes, and parking but still requires active driver supervision. Tesla shifted to a subscription-only pricing model in January 2026, with access now costing $99 per month.
The pace of European expansion has been slower than in the United States, largely due to regulatory scrutiny. The Dutch regulator RDW oversaw the first European approval and is pursuing EU-wide acceptance of its certification. In the meantime, individual European countries can recognize Dutch certification and authorize FSD on their own. Greece’s transport ministry said Wednesday that an upcoming bill would grant approval, and Belgium is also expected to authorize the software through the same process used by RDW.
Outside Europe, FSD is currently available in Australia, Canada, China, Mexico, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, South Korea, and the United States.
FSD (Supervised) is separate from FSD Unsupervised, a fully driverless version not available to consumers. That version operates in a small fleet of roughly 50 Tesla robotaxis in Austin, Dallas, and Houston. Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot is also not yet in mass production or available to consumers.
