    This case is about AP, but AP does steer the car. The car has TACC and Auto Steer, together it’s called Autopilot.

    FSD is the one that can do lane changes, stop for stop lights/stop signs, and all the other necessary things like park and reverse.

      The “auto steer” is what is called lane assistance in other brands, it just keeps you centered in the lane and will do so for mild turns without disengaging. It doesn’t take turns or anything resembling actual steering beyond that, it goes straight and keeps the lane in mild bends in the road like all others.

        Are you from Europe?

        EU has some laws that cause AP to disengage beyond mild turns. It can take some pretty good turns outside EU, but not really sharp ones.

          Yeah I am, and here it is nothing but well-marketed lane-assist. It does better than other brands, but nothing resembling actually steering of the car.

              I’m pretty sure it’s the same overhyped bullshit on the European version of the Tesla site as in the US, the actual product available in cars is just limited more.
