There are multiple external modules that can be added so that if someone is in danger can unplug from inside the car https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-HXnI5AmWc. It would be nice if that was implemented as a built-in.
As an option, this would present a great deal of help for false radar readings by police officers trying to inflate citation speeds or pin other vehicle radar readings on Tesla vehicles.
In the event of Tesla’s servers crashing, etc you should still be able to remote control the car if both devices are on the same network.
I propose adding some sort of protocol like Bonjour to enable auto local discovery where possible.
Energy consumption is depicted as a line graph for last 10, 25, 50km. Nevertheless, it is difficult to use it for learning efficient driving. Why? Example: Assume 230km/h 10km ago and stopping now. Best result although inefficient.
It would be amazing to have IFTTT integration (or similar) in the car. That would open up an entire new world of customization for those so inclined.
Tesla App or website has feature for granting emergency privileges to drive the car even if there is no phone or key fob present. If you lose your phone or run out of battery, your spouse can remotely enable the car to be driven so you can get home. As other feature requests have mentioned, thi
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:
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.
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.
Turn your EV to UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) for your home.
Use energy stored in Tesla battery to provide power to your home during power interruption.
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
Station Picons for the Radio-Stations!
in All modern cars in Europe you can Identify the Radio Stations with thier unique Station Logo.
Just not in the Tesla Radio App.
On many Public 3rd Party Chargers it would be more convenient to have an additional charge port on the Co-Driver side of the car.
Especially
Add a 2nd charge port on the other side!
Normally it is not necessary to use the brakes or only for the last few meters to a full stop. The problem is, the the brakes corrode, begin to squeak and the contact parttern gets worse. The only way to prevent this, is to brake. Even it is not necessary - totally insane...
No need to connect a 3rd party game controller via USB, just use the Tesla app. (Assumes latency is good enough).
When driving through a tunnel, the head lights turn on automatically because it gets dark. The transition from bright sunlight to dark tunnel should also reduce the brightness of the display or otherwise switch it to night mode.
Would like to see an enhanced police notification ability where users could quickly submit a real-time summary complaint of dangerous road conditions and/or drivers. The car would text a summary of the complaint to 911 dispatch that includes current GPS location and cell phone owner name & n
