BYD Outpaces Tesla in Europe as FSD Approval Hopes Rise
TL;DR
In Europe, BYD outsold Tesla in April by more than two-to-one across the EU, UK, and EFTA, with BYD up 115% year‑over‑year versus Tesla’s 47%. Year‑to‑date figures show a similar lead for BYD. Tesla bets its future in Europe on supervised Full Self-Driving (FSD); the Netherlands has granted approval for a supervised FSD version, with expected EU‑wide approval in the second or third quarter and a possible July regulator vote.
