Tesla Rebrands Full Self-Driving as Assisted Driving in Europe

Original: Tesla Rebrands Full Self-Driving as Tesla Assisted Driving in Europe

Tesla has renamed its Full Self-Driving package to Tesla Assisted Driving in Europe. The change reflects regulatory pressure in the region, where authorities restrict marketing language that implies vehicles can drive themselves. The system's capabilities are unchanged; only the branding differs. The move reignites debate over whether Tesla's Autopilot and FSD systems live up to their names, and how automakers should label partially automated driving features for consumers.

Why now: Renaming the high-profile FSD feature in Europe raises fresh questions about the safety and truthfulness of Tesla's self-driving marketing.
