Tesla has introduced a limited version of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) features in China, receiving mixed feedback due to its limited capabilities compared to promises and local competitors. The update, labeled ‘2024.45.32.12,’ includes Autopilot automatic assisted driving on urban roads, cabin camera monitoring, and an updated map package. While some Tesla owners appreciate the progress, others express disappointment, citing the system’s restrictions and high cost relative to more advanced systems offered by Chinese automakers. Lu Panpan, a Tesla owner from Zhejiang province, criticized the system as knowingly restricted and difficult to justify given Tesla’s pricing. Tesla plans further updates later this year, with CEO Elon Musk reiterating hopes for full self-driving capabilities within the next year, a promise he has made annually for the past six years. — news from Electrek
