Η Tesla μπορεί να μην φτάσει σε πλήρη αυτοκίνηση το 2021

Tesla has told a California regulator it may not achieve full self-driving technology by the end of this year, a memo by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) seen by Reuters showed.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said during an earnings conference call in January that he was “highly confident the car will be able to drive itself with reliability in excess of human this year”.

Η Tesla έχει επίσης κυκλοφορήσει αυτό που περιγράφει ως «beta» έκδοση του προγράμματος «πλήρης αυτοοδήγηση» (FSD) σε περιορισμένο αριθμό εργαζομένων και πελατών από τον Οκτώβριο και ο Μασκ έχει διαφημίσει τη δυνατότητα αυτή στο Twitter.

“Elon’s tweet does not match engineering reality per CJ. Tesla is at Level 2 currently,” the California DMV said in a memo about its 9 March conference call with Tesla representatives, including autopilot engineer CJ Moore.

Level 2 technology is semi-automated driving which requires supervision by a human driver.

The memo was released by legal transparency group PlainSite, which obtained it under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), Reuters said.

“Tesla indicated that Elon is extrapolating on the rates of improvement when speaking about L5 capabilities. Tesla couldn’t say if the rate of improvement would make it to L5 by end of calendar year,” the memo said.

The California DMV, Tesla and Moore were not immediately available for comment to Reuters.

«Η Tesla έδειξε ότι είναι ακόμα σταθερά στο L2», ανέφερε στο σημείωμα η California DMV. «Όπως γνωρίζει η Tesla, η παρανόηση του κοινού σχετικά με τα όρια της τεχνολογίας και την κακή χρήση της μπορεί να έχει τραγικές συνέπειες».

The California Highway Patrol is investigating why a Tesla vehicle crashed into an overturned truck on a highway near Fontana, California, on Wednesday, killing the Tesla’s driver. The patrol did not say whether the Tesla was operating on Autopilot or not, Reuters said.

Federal highway safety regulators are investigating more than 20 accidents involving Tesla vehicles, the report added.
