FSD (Supervised)

1. 5

   Regulator-cleared or mass marketThis robot

   A regulator has cleared it where approval applies: FDA clearance or approval for a medical robot, a permit to run with no one aboard for a self-driving vehicle, or an FAA approval for routine drone flights. Or: Widely sold: sales in the hundreds of thousands, or a product category you can buy in ordinary shops.

What we couldn't confirm. We could not open sources for the reported 2026 upgrade of an NHTSA FSD probe to an Engineering Analysis (about 3.2 million cars), for the December 2023 Autopilot recall, or for the outcome of California DMV's false-advertising case over the 'Full Self-Driving' name. Musk's many past dated promises of full autonomy for owners' cars are not listed for the same reason.
