Everybody else including standardization organizations such als WLTP or EPA use KWh/100 km as unit for energy consuption. Please change that in the trip meter and the other energy consumption screens from Wh/km to KWh/100 km for concistency.
With EAP, when you press the blinker, Auto lane change is initiated. The lane change times off after a few seconds, which is often the case even with medium incoming traffic.
Use voice command to record voice notes and sync them with smart phone, e.g. via evernote, MAP or dropbox/nextcloud/padlet
When one visits “Go Anywhere” (https://www.tesla.com/trips) on a browser, there’s no option to select a standard range model Y. It shows just the long range & Performance options. Thanks.
There are several things that the car does automatically, I imagine beacause someone thought this would be a good idea, and that someone was so much convinced about this, that there are no options to change this ...
(1) Reducing volume when opening the door
Can we have an option for alerts to be spoken, please?
Screen alerts disappear too quickly, and I don't want to take my eyes off the road. So I usually miss them.
I have a problem with screen popup alerts… sometimes I am busy keeping my eyes on the road, so I may miss an alert because it disappears before I see it, or the font is too small for the current lighting conditions. There should be settings for the alert timer and font size.
The UX to find/manipulate settings while driving a model 3 is pretty painful, distracting, and borderline dangerous. If I want to turn the volume up, I have to carefully point my fat fingers to a 5mm x 5mm square on the tablet at the risk of driving off the lane.
Next to the existing "open trunk", "open frunk", "open doors", "open chargeport" buttons.
One touch button on mobile app to precondition vehicle. This would include the following, based on what the vehicle determined needs to be done:
Allow the vehicle to intelligently respond to weather events. Some examples:
Based on my individual sitting position the display could be about 7cms higher without obstructing my view to the windscreen. If I could shift it upwards these 7cms I'd have an optimized view to it.
Many people read audiobooks on their commute to work. Having to play with your phone is not ideal since (especially in California, it's illegal to play with phone while driving), so having a dedicated app to be able to control and access your audiobooks in the car would be ideal.
I like my car predicting my targets, but while commuting I rely on my "brain-based autopilot" and I need verbal advice only if something is out of line.
Press and hold left heated seat icon will turn on or off heated steering wheel depends on current status.
Toast message appears about which action taken after that.
Since it's cumbersome to open up the entire HVAC settings then tap on steering wheel tab to turn that on or off.
If I say e.g. "play Frank Sinatra", I get one song from Sinatra and then it continues with music of the same kind.
I'd rather like to hear Sinatra songs until I can't stand it any longer and ask for something else, e.g. "play AC/DC" ;)
In my Audi I could call an "extracted number" out of a text message from my office (e.g. "Hello, Mr XY +xx-xxx-xxxxxxx asks for an urgent call-back").
Better would be just to touch the phone number within the text message, as done on a smart phone.
Just the way a fitness tracker does. This brings all messengers as well as all kinds of reminders.
... for more security while driving into narrow intersection or out of parking spot/garage.
Please cooperate with Nespresso so that your car will have quality coffee capsules! George Clooney drives a Tesla with a cup of coffee, what else?!
In addition to existing autopilot activation method, it may be useful to have icons on the touchscreen, that can activate either adaptive cruise control or autopilot feature by tapping on the touchscreen.
In addition to the existing mode of gear selection, it may be useful to set the gear right on the touch screen by tapping the "P", "R", "N" or "D" icon
ok, most cars have a foot-kick-sensor to open the trunk handsfree. The most Tesla-like way would still be an outside voice command. But if not, a substitute would be to place/model the trunk opening button so you can activate it e.g. with elbow or knee.
