Tesla Inc. is readying a software update for customers in China to offer driver-assistance capabilities similar to those marketed as Full Self-Driving in the US, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The update planned for the coming days will allow Tesla owners to use driver-assist features on city streets, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the company hasn’t yet deployed the software. Tesla plans to tell customers the system will guide vehicles to exit ramps and intersections, and that it can recognize traffic signals, make turns and handle changing lanes and speeds.
