Tesla began offering FSD (Supervised) in China on February 25, 2025 in the original Tesery timeline. This article was a single user’s “months later, no safety intervention” quote. That is an anecdote, not a China safety study.
Key facts
- What the user claimed: Months of city driving with no “safety intervention.” Undefined term — Tesla disengagement? A nag? A crash?
- What Tesla shipped: A China-adapted Supervised stack. Feature set and maps are not the U.S. v14 package by default.
- What one driver cannot prove: Fleet crash rates on Shanghai or Beijing roads.
China FSD is still supervised
Chinese urban traffic is a hard ODD. A clean personal log is interesting. It is not “FSD solved China.” Tesla does not publish a China-only Vehicle Safety Report equivalent that we can treat as regulator-grade. For Tesla’s global tables see the Vehicle Safety Report. Software context: v14.1 notes.
FAQ
Does this mean FSD is legal unsupervised in China?
No. Supervised means a responsible driver.
Should I buy FSD in China because of this quote?
No. Use Tesla China’s current terms and your own roads.
One clean month is not a safety case. Drive as if you are the fallback — because you are.
