Tesla’s advancement in Full Self-Driving remains a core focus. The company is now rolling out hardware version 4 (HW4) and continuously improving FSD software. Tesla insiders highlight impressive real-world performance—such as avoiding obstacles seamlessly—which strongly suggests FSD is nearing or surpassing human-level safety in certain scenarios.
Tesla's vision is to launch fully unsupervised robotaxi fleets by 2024-2025. Despite delays, the company maintains confidence that, by 2030, fully autonomous driving will be safer than human drivers. Steven Mark Ryan emphasizes that lower-cost, safe, self-driving taxis will dramatically disrupt conventional transportation, displacing millions of traditional vehicles and reducing carbon emissions.
