테슬라 HW3용 ‘FSD 라이트’, 국내 적용 가능성 주목

Tesla's rollout of FSD V14 Lite for Hardware 3 vehicles could extend autonomous driving capabilities to Korean owners of US-imported Tesla models through Korea-US FTA provisions, reviving interest in older hardware generations. However, the Lite version's limited functionality and Korea's conservative safety standards—which prohibit autonomous lane changes—will likely restrict practical benefits to highway driving, leaving complex urban scenarios unsupported. This underscores a critical gap between Tesla's rapid autonomous technology evolution and Korea's regulatory framework, exposing the need to modernize safety standards that have remained essentially unchanged since 2019.
