Tesla Assisted Driving Basic has replaced FSD Supervised. The white interior is also gone.
A number of changes, some more noticeable and some less, have occurred in Tesla’s European configurators. Regarding the upcoming certification for the former FSD Supervised, the most significant adjustment involves its name — it is now called Tesla Assisted Driving (TAD), which translates to Tesla Assistance Driving (TAD) or Safe Driving (TJA). There are also other changes, such as the removal of the option to choose a white interior. The new light color option is Zen Grey, costing an additional 5,500 złoty.
Changes in Tesla’s configurator. As usual, on Thursdays
First, there’s Tesla Assisted Driving Basic. Previous reports suggested the name wouldn’t include the word “Basic,” and indeed it doesn’t in countries that have approved FSD Supervised/TAD for roads based on Dutch homologation. As a result, “Basic” is not available in the Dutch configuration tool (HERE), but it is present in the Polish (HERE) and German versions. The monthly subscription for TAD is 420 zlotys, with early reports from countries where the system is already in use mentioning an annoying requirement to confirm the maximum speed each time, as well as a limit of driving 10 km/h above the permitted speed.
But this is just the beginning of the changes: the white interior has been removed from the configurator, and now it’s possible to choose black or light gray upholstery. According to the description, the synthetic leather (a smooth and somewhat slippery material) has been replaced with microfiber and fabric, meaning we assume alcantara (synthetic suede) along with fabric upholstery in the cockpit. It’s a shame because Tesla was essentially the only company offering white upholstery at such an affordable price, and alcantara should feel more pleasant to the touch. The light gray interior already appeared in Australia and New Zealand earlier on.

The Zen Grey interior in the Tesla Model 3 Premium
All vehicles, including the Model 3, already come equipped with 16-inch central screens operating at QHD resolution (2560×1440 pixels) – the Model Y received these a few months ago first in the Performance version and later in lower trims. It’s also worth noting that a subwoofer is only available in the Premium Long Range all-wheel-drive version (Tesla Model 3 = 2 subwoofers, Tesla Model Y = 1 subwoofer); ventilated seats and heated rear seat cushions are only available in Premium trims, as is the touchscreen at the back. Finally, a HEPA filter can be found only in Model Y Premium and Performance versions.
