GOOD NEWS 🇯🇵 Tesla is still pushing hard to roll out FSD (Supervised) in Japan by the end of 2026 — and launching the Cybercab there is officially on the table too 🔥 In a recent interview with Nikkei, Tesla Japan President Richi Hashimoto reaffirmed the company’s ambitious year-end target, emphasizing that the team is doing everything possible to pull it off. Tesla has been testing FSD on Japanese public roads since August 2025, taking on notoriously tricky conditions like ultra-narrow streets and complex multi-level interchanges beneath elevated expressways. Navigating the terrain, however, is only half the battle. Even when the vision-based AI calculates that a maneuver is completely safe, that move doesn't always strictly align with local traffic regulations. Tesla is actively running local validation and model training to iron out those legal edge cases. Hashimoto admitted that hitting the 2026 deadline won't be a walk in the park. Safety remains paramount, and Tesla is deep in discussions with Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) and other regulatory bodies to secure regulatory approval. Still, Hashimoto highlighted what he views as Tesla’s decisive trump card: a pure-vision AI architecture powered by massive streams of real-world fleet data. That data flywheel gives Tesla a significant head start just as domestic Japanese automakers prepare to roll out their own competing systems in 2027 and beyond. And the ambitions don't stop there. Hashimoto signaled genuine interest in eventually bringing the purpose-built Cybercab to Japanese shores—though getting FSD (Supervised) across the finish line comes first. With just over two months left in 2026, the regulatory timeline is tight, but Tesla isn't backing down. Nailing this launch would mark a massive milestone in FSD's global expansion 🔥

🇦🇹 Austria won't approve Tesla FSD (TAD) on its own. Its transport ministry (BMIMI) says it won't open up national recognition. It's waiting for the "EU decision". So Austrians get TAD only if the EU says yes. The next chance at the TCMV (the EU vehicle committee) is potentially December 2027. Some have said: "Austria confirmed a yes vote", but this is unconfirmed. The source is an anonymous message read out on YouTube.
