The only reason for the co-driver to use the display is for music selection during long trips, opening glovebox or seat heating.
When I'm driving alone, it would be convenient to be able to orient the display fully to me.
... with current speed, speed limit and next navigation advice.
Just to make sure, Tesla doesn't forget it when finalizing the Berlin prototypes. ;)
"open charging flap!", "lower windows and start venting!", "open door!", "open frunk!", "finish charging!", ... Yes, there are other ways to do so, but it's free as soon as you have an outside microphone (maybe at the B-pillar) and a way to avoid misuse (phone must be close and outside).
I'd like an even smarter and more reliable way to recognize the user's wish to open the trunk than the old fashioned foot kick gesture. Maybe a voice command when standing with a registered phone (and loaded with shopping bags) behind the car.
I'd really like to see more media App's like Amazon Prime Video, Amazon Prime Music, and Disney Plus. Also possible an App's store for future App's to be added by developers in order to unlock extra capabilities, and allow you to add and remove Apps at will.
It’d help to have the blinker make a slightly different sound when there’s a car in the blind spot. This would give advanced warning compared to what is currently present (imminent crash warning), without being annoying.
For short trips, heating up the battery with 7000watt(dual motor) is not necessary when preheating cabin. Battery heater on/off switch would be nice.
Possibility to preheat the seat heating alone! via app to save power on cool days
1) Tesla map databases lag behind Google Maps - so I'd like to use Google maps using CarPlay
2) Bluetooth activation of Siri is slow and often doesn't work, and it works fine on any car with CarPlay
The latest GUI update (current version: 2020.48.30 040912887bad) has a theme for the battery/energy that is a less colorful (black/white). This is not as easy to see, whereas in the older version, the battery was green and could easily be noticed at a glance.
In the UI update (current version: 2020.48.30 040912887bad), the P, D, R, N (the drive gears) display are not as prominent. It would be nice to increase (or have a setting to modify) the text size so that it is more visible to the driver (especially for older eyes).
Introduced a few versions ago from the current version (2020.48.30 040912887bad), the new display looks sleek but the speedometer is not as prominent as previous versions. For older people, the text of the speedometer is a little too small.
In previous versions (currently using 2020.48.30 040912887bad), the software had a button when the user pressed the profiles to adjust mirrors (in the circled area in photo). Now, to adjust mirrors, one needs to press Quick Controls (the car icon in the bottom left), then press Mirrors.
Hello,
Although I am very impressed with my Model 3 SR+, I wish this was made standard.
i) a windshield-washer jet to clear the backup camera and|or hide it in the logo (à la VW e-Golf).
Driver keeps undisturbed access to main screen (e.g. for navigation, cameras, etc.) while co-driver or rear passenger is selecting music or changing temperature.
Spotify playlist should move upward so you can always see the next few songs, instead of disappearing off the bottom of the screen.
When parking backwards, cameras could assess the size of the parking spot and display how hard/easy parallel parking will be
Ever wonder if you are in the parking lines? Well we should be able to see it on the screen if we are in the middle or over the line. This is anytime we are in a parking lot and pulling forward or backwards into a spot.
If door handle is frozen, be able to open drivers door with button in phone app.
Maybe just allow option if if temperature is below 5 C.
every time we are...
in this garage/underground carpark -> limit trunk opening height to xx%
approaching home -> send message to smart home heating
Since last update my car can recognize speed-limit-signs, which makes driving better than before, but new problems are showing up:
(1) car cannot distinguish between the end of a speed-limit or the end of other restrictions (forbidden to overtake, end of parking-zone, ...)
This would bring a lot of additional apps to the big screen without implementation effort for Tesla. Video streaming, incoming messages other than SMS (Threema, wire, Telegram,...), video conferencing, city parking guide, airport/station arrival/departure times in realtime, office apps, ...
An audible warning when the speed limit changes. There are many places with small towns that suddenly change the speed limit to 25 MPH, it would be nice if the car gave an audible warning when the speed limit changed. Same when the speed limit increases as you leave town.
can't mention it to often ;)
Both are not for free but must-have options in european cars at that price level.
Once you are used to it, you will miss it more than a driver seat! ...
... ok, maybe that was slightly(!) exaggerated ;)
