Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) rollout in the Netherlands is generating real-world data at a remarkable pace. Dutch owners have now driven over 15 million kilometers — roughly 9.32 million miles — on FSD Supervised in just 39 days since the feature went live, according to data shared by Sawyer Merritt. That works out to an average of 239,000 miles (384,000 km) logged every single day. Globally, the cumulative FSD mileage has climbed to nearly 10.5 billion miles.
The Netherlands became the first European country to authorize FSD Supervised for public roads after the Dutch vehicle authority RDW granted type approval on April 10, 2026. Tesla pushed the rollout to eligible owners within 24 hours, making it one of the fastest regulatory-to-deployment timelines the company has executed. The approved version — 14.2.2.5, a European-specific build — has been accumulating miles at a rate that already surpassed the 10 million km mark by May 6, just 19 days into the rollout.
The global trajectory is equally striking. Tesla's FSD fleet had crossed 8.4 billion cumulative miles as of February 2026, with over a billion of those miles logged in the first 50 days of the year alone. The jump to nearly 10.5 billion miles by late May reflects both accelerating adoption in existing markets and the addition of new European users. Every mile adds to the training dataset that informs future FSD improvements — which is precisely why geographic expansion matters beyond the commercial opportunity.
For European Tesla owners watching from outside the Netherlands, the Dutch rollout serves as the proof-of-concept that regulators elsewhere on the continent will likely scrutinize closely. If the safety and usage data from the first 39 days continues to look clean, it strengthens the case for approvals in additional EU markets. The pace at which Dutch owners have embraced the feature — nearly a quarter-million miles per day — suggests demand has been waiting well ahead of regulatory permission.
