Tesla is looking to meet regulatory registration requirements for its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software in China and begin testing the latest version of it on Chinese public roads, Reuters reported on Thursday, citing people with knowledge of the matter. If the US automaker manages to gain approval from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, it may roll out version 12 of the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) in China this year, and allow owners to subscribe to the service at about $98 per month. The service now charges Chinese buyers a one-time fee of RMB 64,000 ($8,828), according to the report. The news comes after Tesla chief executive Elon Musk met with Chinese Premier Li Qiang in Beijing last month and China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), a top auto industry group, confirmed that Tesla’s China-made vehicles are compliant with the country’s data security requirements.
