Tesla's Full Self-Driving outperforms Rivian's Autonomy+ but still requires driver supervision.

CNBC compared Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system with Rivian's Autonomy+ and found Tesla's system superior, especially in non-highway and point-to-point driving. Rivian's system, which offers features like automatic parking and on-ramp to off-ramp driving, still requires driver input for lane changes and struggles on unmarked roads. Tesla's FSD operates well even in dark conditions and on back roads, but neither system is approved for fully driverless operation, meaning drivers must remain attentive. Despite Tesla's lead, full regulatory approval for true autonomy may take years, and safety concerns remain due to past accidents.
