Tesla renames 'Full Self-Driving' to 'Assisted Driving' in Europe in bid for regulatory clearance

Tesla has renamed its Full Self-Driving software to Assisted Driving in Europe as it seeks regulatory clearance to roll the system out across the continent. The rebrand downgrades the feature's marketed capability on paper — the software itself is unchanged. European regulators have previously flagged the 'Full Self-Driving' label as misleading to consumers, since the system still requires an attentive driver to supervise.
