Tesla has changed the name of its advanced driver-assistance system in Europe from “Full Self-Driving (Supervised)” to “Tesla Assisted Driving,” according to Techub, citing TechCrunch. The change came after Germany’s transport ministry said the previous name was misleading because the system still requires a human driver to stay attentive and take over when needed. German Transport Minister Steffen Bilger said Tesla proposed the rename on its own and that he would push for approval of the software across Europe. Tesla CEO Elon Musk thanked Bilger on X this week. Tesla has spent years seeking approval for its FSD software in Europe, and the Netherlands became the first European country to approve the software earlier this year.
