Tesla's FSD System Makes Waves in Germany With Autonomous Deliveries at Giga Berlin
Tesla has made waves in Germany with its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system, demonstrating autonomous vehicle delivery at Giga Berlin. The Federal Motor Transport Authority (Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt, KBA) oversees vehicle safety in the country, though its specific involvement with Tesla's FSD system is unclear.
Tesla has released a video showcasing a Model Y autonomously exiting the Giga Berlin factory. The car stops at a Supercharger and then parks itself, highlighting its self-driving capabilities. This innovation could significantly streamline car deliveries, reducing costs and eliminating customer and staff trips.
All finished Model Y vehicles at Giga Berlin now autonomously drive themselves to the exterior lot after production. This increase in efficiency eliminates the need for human drivers to move vehicles around the factory. Tesla achieved a similar feat earlier this year, autonomously delivering a Model 3 from Giga Texas to a customer's home.
Tesla's autonomous operation at Giga Berlin is a significant milestone, demonstrating the real-world application of its FSD system. Despite ongoing scrutiny from regulators due to safety challenges and crashes, Tesla continues to push the boundaries of autonomous vehicle technology, with its stock reflecting investor confidence in its autonomy.
