autonomous driving

Tesla has launched its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system in China, a significant development that intensifies competition within the rapidly evolving electric vehicle market. This move follows Elon Musk's visit to the country and comes as China has legalized Level 3 (L3) automated driving. The "FSD Supervised" system is now available in China and nine other nations, marking a new phase in the country's self-driving capabilities. While Tesla's FSD debut is a major event, concerns about data security and potential espionage using advanced technologies, including those mounted on cars for mapping, have also been highlighted in recent news. This dual focus on technological advancement and national security underscores the complex landscape of autonomous driving deployment in China.
