XPENG VLA 2.0 vs Tesla FSD tested in Amsterdam

A CleanTechnica journalist became the first outsider to ride in an XPENG L03 prototype running XNGP with VLA 2.0 in Amsterdam, then took the same route in a Tesla Model 3 with FSD. The September 11 test was under embargo; XPENG plans an official VLA 2.0 release next year, and the Netherlands became the first European country to approve FSD.

• XPENG L03 is a pre-production prototype with VLA 2.0, official release planned for next year
• The September 11 test ran on Amsterdam's narrow streets with cyclists and construction
• The driver intervened three times: lane change for construction, passing a stalled car, closing a gap
• VLA 2.0 anticipates cyclist speed and distance and avoids panic braking
