Tesla Reveals FSD Has Driven Over 8.2 Billion Miles
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) has announced significant safety milestones for its Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology, reporting that the system has driven over 8.2 billion miles to date.
7X Fewer Major Accidents
The data shared on Tesla's official website indicates that the Supervised FSD has traveled over 8.2 billion miles, with more than 3 billion miles logged in urban settings. The automaker claims its FSD system is associated with "7X" fewer major and minor collisions, along with "5X" fewer off-highway accidents.
Elon Musk Celebrates Milestone
CEO Elon Musk took to social media platform X to celebrate this milestone, stating, "Lot of miles," in a post that highlighted the impressive figures.
Additionally, Tesla reports that its vehicles have driven over 5.3 million miles in North America without a crash. You can find more insights into Tesla's performance and FSD technology on Inside Ticker.
Robotaxi Crashes and System Concerns
Despite these achievements, concerns linger. Tesla's Robotaxi in Austin recently reported five additional crashes in January, raising its total to 14 incidents since its launch in mid-2025. Investor Ross Gerber from Gerber Kawasaki suggested that Tesla might need hardware updates to improve its autonomous driving technology.
Moreover, a recent incident shared by a Tesla owner involved their vehicle on FSD navigating dangerously close to a lake, prompting questions regarding the system's reliability.
Regulatory Matters and Future Plans
In other news, Tesla has successfully avoided a 30-day suspension of its vehicle manufacturing and sales in California after dropping the term "Autopilot" from its marketing materials. This follows a lawsuit from the California Department of Motor Vehicles that accused the company of misleading customers about the capabilities of its Autopilot and FSD systems.
Looking ahead, Tesla announced a production-ready version of its Cybercab, which Musk claims will be available for customers at a price of $30,000, with a production ramp-up scheduled for April.
