Try Tesla FSD Supervised: free demo ride-alongs in Italy, France, and Germany

Tesla has launched FSD Supervised demo ride-alongs for passengers in Italy, France, and Germany. Anyone can take the front seat next to a Tesla instructor and watch the system handle urban driving. The company is offering free December slots, and the routes cover city streets, roundabouts, and motorways.

According to Tesla, the goal is to show how FSD reacts in real traffic and how it deals with the tricky parts of everyday driving. The effort is meant to build trust ahead of a possible approval in the Netherlands in early 2026, a milestone that could open the door to wider FSD availability across the EU. Giving people a chance to see the software at work in dense European traffic feels like a practical way to replace skepticism with first-hand experience.

FSD Supervised is already in use in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and partially in China. Owners say the system lightens the driver’s workload and makes long-distance travel more relaxing. That aligns with where assisted driving tends to shine most clearly: easing the grind of lengthy highway stretches while keeping the driver in the loop.

Tesla also emphasizes safety benefits. The company points to an example from Australia, where a car using FSD reportedly continued driving safely after being struck by a suspected meteorite. The case is unusual, but it illustrates how consistent, measured responses can matter when the unexpected happens.
