Tesla says its Full Self-Driving package is now available in China

Tesla has brought its Full Self-Driving (FSD) suite of driver assistance features to China – or it's at least close to doing so.

The company announced the news in a tweet on Thursday, listing all of the countries where FSD is currently available. Besides China, also new on that list is Lithuania, the second European country to get FSD after the Netherlands.

The total list of countries where Tesla FSD is available is now as follows: Australia, Canada, China, Lithuania, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, South Korea, and the United States.

Tesla did not share any other details about FSD availability in China. Launching FSD in the vast, busy automotive market that is China would surely be a win for Tesla, especially given that many other local automakers, such as Xpeng and Xiaomi, have a similar suite of semi-autonomous driving features in the country already.

As CNBC pointed out, Tesla previously offered its Autopilot and Enhanced Autopilot suites of driver assistance features in China, while the FSD was only available to select users, and in limited fashion. China Daily, however, claims that the complete version of FSD isn't available in China yet, though "progress is under way," citing insider sources.

The news comes shortly after Musk, alongside several other American businessmen and President Donald Trump, visited Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Beijing.

Tesla customers in China currently have to pay a high price to access the most advanced autonomous driving package the company has to offer. As it stands on Tesla's Chinese website, the "Intelligent assisted driving" package costs a one-time fee of 64,000 yuan or $9,409. In the U.S., FSD is only available as a monthly subscription, at a price of $99 per month.
