Despite recent provisional approval of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software in the Netherlands, Tesla is grappling with increasing skepticism from European regulators. The Flanders region is exploring swift adoption of FSD, but regulators disapprove of Tesla encouraging user advocacy for rapid approvals. Concurrently, Tesla's sales in Europe have underperformed, raising concerns about broader acceptance of its autonomous technologies and potential impacts on investor confidence amid heightened regulatory scrutiny.
