Tesla has published its first batch of real-world FSD (Supervised) safety data drawn specifically from its European Union fleet, covering four months of driving across the five EU countries where the system is currently approved. The company says FSD (Supervised) has been over 5.2 times safer than manual driving across roughly 65 million kilometers of combined driving in that window.

Where the Data Comes From
The figures cover April 10 through July 26, 2026, and are aggregated across all road types from the five EU countries where FSD (Supervised) is currently approved: the Netherlands, Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark, and Belgium. The Netherlands was first, after its vehicle authority (RDW) granted type approval on April 10, 2026 — the first sign-off of its kind anywhere in the EU. Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark, and Belgium each authorized the system afterward, each leaning on that initial Dutch decision to fast-track their own approvals.
The full breakdown Tesla published
- 5.2x fewer collisions overall across FSD-approved countries
- Highway driving: FSD logged 41.9 million km with zero collisions, versus manual driving (with active safety features) at 429.3 million km and 88 collisions over the same comparison period — an 8.5x difference
- Non-highway driving: FSD logged 6 collisions across 23.8 million km, versus manual driving at 514.5 million km and 368 collisions — a 2.8x difference
- 13.4x fewer automatic emergency braking interventions
- 9.2x less harsh acceleration
- 7.1x less harsh braking
- 7.6x fewer hard swerves
Tesla's own footnotes specify that both the FSD and manual-driving figures are accumulated starting from the date each country approved FSD (Supervised), so the comparison is measured over the same calendar window in the same markets rather than against older, unrelated baseline data.
The highway and non-highway figures roughly add up to the total 65 million km headline number, and the pattern is consistent with what Tesla has previously reported in the U.S.: highway driving, which is more structured and predictable, shows a bigger safety margin than mixed non-highway driving with intersections, pedestrians, and cyclists.
