Sweden Threatens EU-Wide Block on Tesla's FSD Over Speeding Concerns
Summary
Sweden's transport authority is recommending the EU block Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) technology across Europe unless its ability to exceed legal speed limits is disabled. This opposition, if successful, could significantly hinder the EU-wide rollout of FSD, impacting Tesla's sales and competitive standing in a key market. Other Nordic countries also share similar concerns. The EU's Technical Committee on Motor Vehicles (TCMV) is scheduled to discuss the matter on June 30, with a vote on the technology's approval expected at a later date.
