Two free hours of electricity to assist with Sunday lunch, car and home battery top-ups, plus some boiling water stored away in Thermos container for later.
For me, a truly rare occasion where sizeable grid demand occurs.

Seems Tesla has relented and opted to rename FSD in UK market, should hopefully pacify our regulators.
Full Self-Driving (Supervised) → Tesla Assisted Driving
Enhanced Autopilot + Full Self-Driving Capability → Tesla Assisted Driving Basic (what I have)

Model Y was #1 across the Nordics in September 🇩🇰🇫🇮🇮🇸🇳🇴🇸🇪
Best-selling passenger vehicle in all five markets – Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway & Sweden
In Norway, more than 1 in 4 new cars registered was a Model Y!
Also the top-selling brand overall in Denmark, Iceland & Norway

Tesla's Model 3 becomes the UK's #2 best-selling car in September!
Preliminary data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders show 9,929 Model 3 registrations in September, making it the UK's top electric model and the second-best-selling car overall. The Model Y added 5,946 registrations and became #5 🏆
At it once more – with two free hours of grid import going on charging car, topping up home battery, heat pump, kettle, lunch and every electrical rechargeable device I can think of ;)

The chance to experience Tesla’s Model Y and 3 today and tomorrow with advisors on-site to answer any questions. Be warned though, you may never want another brand of car after test driving one!

Really love the idea of Tesla’s Automatic Collision Evasion for manual driving (only North America for now), which evades head-on collisions where braking insufficient or driver is not looking/controlling or asleep/unconscious – by FSD briefly intervening!

An exciting release of info direct from Tesla about FSD Supervised HW4 Article 39 evaluation results
tesla.com/fsd-evidence-dashb… ahead of expected October TCMV vote.
An update on FSD Supervised in Europe
FSD is currently approved in five EU countries (NL, DK, BE, EE, LT), used by >70k customers for over 1 million km per day, and is 4.1x less likely to get into a crash compared to manual driving, measured across 100 million km on public EU roads.
Leading up to a potential EU-wide approval vote for FSD Supervised on October 6th, 2026, we have decided to open-source one of the key pieces of evidence used to support the Netherlands approval.
As a reminder, we adjusted the FSD design to be compliant with existing regulation (UN-R-171 DCAS) but requested an exemption for certain behaviors via the EU Article 39 procedure. The following dashboard is evidence of safety for those exemptions.
This exact dashboard was shared with all EU Member States in April 2026, shortly after RDW’s approval, and all data presented is from before that date.
tesla.com/fsd-evidence-dashb…
European countries recorded 19,400 road deaths in 2025. That's around 53 deaths/day, with the vast majority of these crashes attributed to human error. These deaths are largely preventable with technology we have today.
FSD Supervised is already saving lives where it’s approved – yet in much of Europe, that safety benefit remains locked behind bureaucracy.

Of particular note:
Clear signalling reduces uncertainty and allows surrounding drivers and vulnerable road users to anticipate manoeuvres. SAE field data estimate that turn-signal neglect contributes to millions of conflicts and crashes annually (Ponziani, 2012).
