9月29日:特斯拉表示,其受监管的完全自动驾驶系统已在克罗地亚获得批准,预计很快将在全国范围内推广,这使其加入越来越多批准该技术的欧洲国家行列。
Sept 29 : Tesla said on Tuesday that its supervised Full Self-Driving system has been approved in Croatia, with a rollout across the country expected to begin soon, joining a growing list of European countries that have approved the technology.
此前,荷兰监管机构RDW已于4月批准了该系统,比利时和其他几个国家也相继跟进。邻国斯洛文尼亚也在本月早些时候给予了批准。然而,RDW还提议在整个欧盟范围内批准该软件。
• Dutch regulator RDW approved the system in April, with Belgium and a handful of other countries following suit. Neighbouring Slovenia also approved earlier this month. • RDW is also proposing that the software be approved across the bloc.
不过,一个安全组织和几个欧盟成员国对该系统超速行驶的能力表示担忧。
A safety group and several EU member states have, however, expressed concerns regarding the system's ability to exceed speed limits.
这一问题已成为特斯拉在欧洲推广FSD(Full Self-Driving)过程中最具争议的方面之一。
特斯拉称,这一技术对于提升销量和在来自中国电动汽车制造商的竞争压力下重夺市场份额至关重要。
• The issue has emerged as one of the most contentious aspects of Tesla's push for a European rollout of FSD, which the automaker has said is crucial to boosting sales and regaining market share amid growing competition from Chinese electric-vehicle makers.
原定于10月进行的关于是否在整个欧盟范围内推广该软件的投票已被推迟,下一次决策机会预计要到12月。
• An expected vote on allowing the software rollout across the bloc was earlier delayed from October, with the next apparent opportunity for a decision not before December.
在整个欧盟范围内推广该软件需要得到15个成员国(占欧盟27个成员国总数的65%)的“合格多数”支持。
• An EU-wide rollout requires support by a "qualified majority" of 15 of the EU's 27 member states, representing 65 per cent of the bloc's population.
