Beijing –
Tesla has cleared some major hurdles that have long prevented the company from rolling out its self-driving software in China. This clears the way for a favorable outcome after Elon Musk’s surprise visit to the American car manufacturer’s second-largest market.
Tesla CEO Musk arrived in the Chinese capital on Sunday, where he was expected to discuss the rollout of Full Self-Driving (FSD) software and permission to transfer driving data abroad, a person with knowledge of the matter said .
The billionaire’s whirlwind visit, during which he met Chinese Premier Li Qiang, came just over a week after he scrapped a planned trip to India to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi, citing “very heavy Tesla commitments.”
