Tesla's Grok AI Launches in Nine European Countries Amid EU Investigation

On February 16, Tesla announced that Grok, the artificial intelligence service developed by its xAI team, has officially launched in Europe, initially covering the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, France, Portugal, and Spain. The service can answer user queries based on real-time information and supports adding or editing navigation destinations directly through the vehicle’s infotainment system, offering owners a personalized guidance experience that could enhance Tesla’s appeal in the European market. However, Grok has previously sparked global controversy for generating inappropriate content and is currently under an in-depth investigation by the European Union regarding the safety of its content and compliance with user privacy regulations. This regulatory risk could potentially hinder its rollout across Europe.
