Tesla’s Autopilot Tech Shows Continued Safety Improvements in Q3 2025 Report
Tesla's latest Vehicle Safety Report reveals that its Autopilot technology maintains a significant edge over national accident averages. The data shows one crash per 6.36 million miles driven with Autopilot engaged—a stark contrast to the U.S. average of one crash every 702,000 miles.
While Q3 2025 results slightly trail the 7-million-mile benchmark set in Q3 2024, Tesla's safety performance remains industry-leading. Seasonal patterns persist, with Q1 typically showing peak performance—evidenced by the Q1 2024 record of one incident per 7.63 million miles.
The EV maker's continuous refinement of its Full Self-Driving (Supervised) system leverages real-world fleet data to improve navigation capabilities. This iterative learning process underscores Tesla's technological advantage in autonomous driving systems.
