Tesla announced on Thursday that drivers have cumulatively logged over 8 billion miles using its Full-Self Driving (Supervised) software as of mid February.
According to the company’s website, the number of miles has now surpassed 8.2 billion, with the 2026 figures already reaching 1 billion miles in the first 50 days of the year.
The mileage includes trips made by both personal Tesla owners — through purchases, subscriptions, or free trials of the software — and the company’s Robotaxi fleet.
In its latest shareholder deck, the company reported that its FSD software accumulated approximately 7.25 billion miles between its launch in 2021 and the end of 2025.
The figures indicate that the last 1 billion miles to surpass 8 billion were driven in the first 50 days of 2026, as first reported by Tesla‘s shareholder and content creator Sawyer Merritt.
The number of miles driven yearly has jumped sharply as the software improved.
Since Tesla‘s software logged 1 billion miles in the first 50 days of 2026, maintaining that pace would allow it to accumulate over 7.3 billion miles over the entire year.
These figures would represent more than the total mileage driven in the first five years combined.
FSD Adoption
Tesla is working on expanding FSD awareness to its car owners.
In the final month of 2025, the company offered North American customers a 30-day trial of FSD 14, timed to coincide with the busy holiday travel season.
Taneja revealed in the latest earnings call that the software has “nearly 1,100,000 paid customers globally,” of which nearly 70% were “upfront purchases.”
Starting from February 14, however, Tesla has eliminated the option to purchase FSD — previously available for $8,000 in the US.
Customers can now only subscribe to the software, for $99 per month.
Late last month, Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk wrote on X that the subscription price “will rise as FSD’s capabilities improve.”
“The massive value jump is when you can be on your phone or sleeping for the entire ride (unsupervised FSD),” he wrote.
FSD Timeline
The first widely rolled out version of FSD — after beta-testing in prior ones — was V12, in late 2023.
Version 12 was released on November 24, 2023, with its first update (v12.1) arriving a month later, in late December 2023.
In 2023, 670 million miles were driven with FSD. The figures more than tripled in 2024, with 2.25 billion miles disclosed by the end of the year.
FSD 13 launched in late 2024, and a year later Tesla rolled out the Version 14 — which CEO Elon Musk called the “biggest ever” update to the software after V12.
The software, which is receiving weekly updates for bug fixes and the introduction of new functions, is currently on v14.2.2.4.
With the latest series — 14.2 — the company has started introducing “reasoning” features, with more expected this quarter as it moves towards V14.3.
Tesla drivers have used FSD for 4.25 billion miles during 2025 alone, nearly doubling from 2024.
As expected, the mileage has been increasing exponentially with the new version of the software.
FSD Unsupervised
During Tesla‘s latest earnings call, Musk said that FSD is now “100% unsupervised,” as the company removed chase vehicles that had accompanied early robotaxi trips operating without safety monitors inside the cabin.
The chief executive reaffirmed that Tesla has “cars operating with no one in them and no safety monitor and no follow car or anything like that in Austin right now.”
However, “for customers, we’re just being very cautious with the rollout,” Musk added.
He flagged that there are “unique issues in particular cities” that Tesla wants to make sure “FSD can handle” before deploying the software for personal use.
