Travis Axelrod -- Head of Investor Relations
Great. Thank you, guys, very much. The next question is, Elon mentioned unsupervised FSD in California and Texas next year. Does that mean regulators have agreed to it in the entire state for existing Hardware 3 and 4 vehicles?
Elon Reeve Musk -- Chief Executive Officer and Product Architect
As I said earlier, California loves regulation.

But they have a pathway.
Elon Reeve Musk -- Chief Executive Officer and Product Architect
Yes. I mean, there's a pathway. Obviously, Waymo operates in California so there's just a lot of forms and a lot of approvals that are required. I mean, I'd be shocked if we don't get approved next year, but it's just not something we totally control.
But I think we will get approval next year in California and Texas. And toward the Bay Area, branch out beyond California and Texas.
