Tesla Inc. is preparing to register its Full Self-Driving (FSD) autonomous driving software with Chinese authorities, according to sources. The move is part of Tesla's broader strategy to roll out its advanced FSD technology in China later this year. Additionally, Tesla is considering offering the FSD software as a monthly subscription service, which would provide an alternative to the one-time purchase model. This initiative marks a significant step in Tesla's efforts to expand its market presence in China, a key market for electric vehicles. The registration will be with China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, as reported by Bloomberg and Reuters.
