Will Tesla launch unsupervised Full Self-Driving (FSD) by April 30, 2026?
Tesla continues to push toward full vehicle autonomy, with Elon Musk repeatedly stating that unsupervised FSD is a near-term goal rather than a distant vision. Recent software iterations show rapid progress in neural-network driving, end-to-end autonomy, and reduced driver interventions, while Tesla positions its approach as distinct from lidar-heavy competitors by relying primarily on vision and AI. However, major hurdles remain. True unsupervised FSD requires not only technical readiness but also regulatory acceptance, safety validation at scale, and clear consumer rollout criteria.
Conditions
Resolves “Yes” if, on or before April 30, 2026, Tesla officially releases an unsupervised version of Full Self-Driving to the public or a defined user group, where no active driver monitoring or hands-on supervision is required, as confirmed by Tesla announcements, regulatory filings, or reporting from major outlets such as Bloomberg, Reuters, or The Wall Street Journal. Otherwise — No.
