Germany has allowed Tesla to launch its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system in the European Union but requires Tesla to stop using the 'Full Self-Driving' name as it is considered misleading to consumers.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Autonomous Vehicles, and 2 sources have reported it between 9 Oct 2026 and 11 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Tesla founders in autonomous vehicles must prepare to rebrand their EU FSD offering quickly to stay compliant and continue market access. The required name change highlights EU regulators' strict stance on product claims that may mislead buyers.
