Tesla boasts its new electric vehicles can navigate a 1.2-mile course at its Fremont factory without human intervention, starting from a charging station and ending at designated parking lanes. This development comes amidst ongoing controversies surrounding Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system, which has faced scrutiny for its capabilities and potential to create a false sense of security.
Tesla claims its new EVs can now drive themselves on a 1.2-mile factory course. The freshly assembled EVs start their driverless journey from a charging station. Tesla isn’t a stranger to controversy. Thanks in no small part to its outspoken CEO, the American electric vehicle got into its fair share of trouble because of its advanced driving assistance systems, which are called Full Self-Driving and Autopilot.
It now claims its EVs drive themselves from the factory to their designated dock lanes without human intervention. The automaker’s artificial intelligence arm posted two videos showing several brand-new Model 3s and Model Ys navigating a roughly 1.2-mile course at the Fremont factory grounds without a person sitting inside. Tesla didn’t offer any details except for what is present in the two X posts embedded below, so it’s hard to pinpoint the exact course taken by the cars.
