Published · Updated · By Investus editorial desk (SUNRYU Partners)
Tesla EU · Sawyer Merritt: first EU FSD (Supervised) safety data · 5.2× fewer collisions than humans · 8.5× safer on highway · Q3 expansion to France/Denmark/Belgium · data covers Apr 10-Jul 28, 2026.
EU FSD Safety Data Detail
Tesla Europe/ME + Sawyer Merritt on Q2 FSD (Supervised) first safety data:
- **Overall**: 5.2× fewer collisions than humans
- **Highway**: 8.5× safer (FSD 49,394 km/collision)
- **Auto Emergency Braking (AEB) events**: 13.4× fewer
- **Pedestrian braking events**: 9.2× fewer
- **Lane keep events**: 7.1× fewer
- **Hard swerve events**: 7.6× fewer
- **Data period**: Apr 10-Jul 28, 2026
- **Coverage**: FSD-approved EU countries
Why This Data Matters
1. **First quantitative EU safety data**: Until now only US/China data · first EU-approved-country data
2. **Regulatory approval basis**: Quantitative basis for follow-on approvals (France/Denmark/Belgium)
3. **Multi-dimensional metrics**: Not just collisions but also AEB/pedestrian/lane/swerve — 7 metrics
4. **Competitive edge**: Waymo/Cruise also publish safety data but 5.2× gap exists
Q3 Expansion
Tesla Q3 target countries:
- France
- Denmark
- Belgium
Consistent with recent TCMV (EU FSD approval body) approval flow.
Combined With FSD Growth Metrics
Recent FSD flow:
- **7/25 report**: FSD miles 315M/day · exponential expansion from 28.8M months ago
- **7/27 report**: FSD v14.3.8 · v14 Lite 6th batch
- **Today**: EU 5.2× safer · Q3 3-country expansion · $6.5B licensing revenue (separate)
FSD expanding into US/China/EU multi-region, multi-platform story.
