Tesla FSD Hits 160 Million km in First Year Across Australia and NZ
![]()
Tesla’s Australia and New Zealand account on X said on September 18 that Full Self-Driving Supervised has logged more than 160 million km in its first year on local roads, framing that as about 4,000 laps around Earth.
A follow-up post shared fleet safety results for the same anniversary window, September 17, 2025 through September 16, 2026. Against a much larger manual-driving baseline of about 2.4 billion km with Active Safety on, the FSD Supervised sample of roughly 160 million km showed fewer incidents per kilometre across every line on the chart.

The scorecard’s headline cuts:
- 40% fewer collisions (major and minor)
- 66% fewer Automatic Emergency Braking events
- 90% fewer harsh braking events
- 86% fewer harsh acceleration events
- 76% fewer harsh lateral acceleration events
- 80% fewer horn uses
Tesla points readers to its public FSD safety pages for the wider Vehicle Safety Report. The graphic notes the figures are approximate and drawn from the Australia and New Zealand fleet across all road types.
Australia and New Zealand were Tesla’s first right-hand-drive markets for FSD Supervised, and Hardware 4 cars there moved onto the v14 stack in June. Hardware 4 owners elsewhere are generally on FSD Supervised v14.3.7, with Hardware 3 on v14.1 Lite; Tesla told Australian Hardware 3 owners in late August that the Lite path for Australia and New Zealand was still in active development, without a public download date.
The anniversary also lands days after Zurich became Australia’s first insurer to treat FSD Supervised as a rating factor on InsureMyTesla policies, citing far fewer collisions in supervised driving data.
Tesla has not broken the 160 million km figure into Australia versus New Zealand, and it has not said how many cars or paid FSD subscriptions sit behind the milepost. Drivers still have to supervise the stack, intervene when needed, and keep their eyes on the road.
For owners already subscribed, the useful takeaway is simple: a year in, Tesla is publishing both the mileage and a local safety scorecard, not just a celebration clip.
