Tesla's ambitious push to dominate the electric vehicle market is facing a major hurdle in the European Union, where regulators are raising concerns about the company's automated-driving technology. According to records obtained by Reuters, EU officials have expressed skepticism about the safety and reliability of Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) systems, citing a lack of clear data on their performance. The EU's skepticism comes as the region prepares to implement new regulations governing the use of autonomous vehicles on public roads. With Tesla's market value heavily reliant on its autonomous driving technology, any setbacks in the EU could have significant implications for the company's global ambitions.
