										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://autoglobalnews.com/tesla-fsd-supervised-ride-alongs-begin-in-europe/" style="color:#1a73e8;text-decoration:underline" title="Tesla FSD Supervised Ride-Alongs Begin in Europe">Tesla</a>’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) program is making significant strides across Europe, with Spain emerging as a key testing ground. The Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT), the Spanish traffic authority, has launched an ES-AV framework to standardize and regulate automated vehicle testing in the country.</p>
<div class='key-takeaways'>
<h3>Key Takeaways</h3>
<ul>
<li>Tesla is actively testing FSD cars across Spain under a new legal framework.</li>
<li>The ES-AV program allows for nationwide testing of autonomous vehicles at various technological maturity stages.</li>
<li>Spain aims to become a leader in automated vehicle technology through this initiative.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>This expansion comes as part of the DGT’s ES-AV Program, which was introduced in July 2025. The program is designed to support innovation and advancement in automotive technology while ensuring safety standards are met. With over 19 Teslas authorized for FSD testing nationwide, Spain looks set to play a pivotal role in the development of autonomous driving systems.</p>
<p>For families like the Garcías from Madrid, this means more opportunities to see cutting-edge technology on their streets. “It’s exciting to think that our kids might one day ride in cars that drive themselves,” says Maria García, a mother and FSD enthusiast. She believes that such advancements could significantly reduce traffic accidents and improve daily commutes.</p>
<p>However, not everyone is as enthusiastic about the rapid pace of change. “I worry about safety,” says Carlos Sánchez, a local driver. “While I appreciate the potential benefits, I want to see more rigorous testing before these vehicles are on our roads.” The DGT’s ES-AV framework addresses such concerns by providing a structured approach to testing and regulation.</p>
<p>As Tesla continues its FSD journey in Spain, it’s clear that this move could have far-reaching implications for the future of driving. With 19 Teslas already authorized for testing across the country, the stage is set for significant advancements in autonomous vehicle technology.</p>
