It would be great to plan your route from the mobile app. As soon as you get in the car navigation will start.
Could also be very interesting for companies with Semi. Planning department can then send the route to the driver and keep the driver informed on route changes.
The fix is simple, add or relocate USB ports to the glove box, front trunk, or some other secured location that can not be accessed without access to the vehicle controls.
I live in Norway, and we have a lot of tunnels. And when entering a tunnel, I would like air recirculation to turn on.
The camera-system should be able to detect driving into a tunnel, and turn on recirculation, and then turn it off again when leaving the tunnel.
A visualization showing the car's understanding of traction on each wheel. If a loss of traction is detected, this could pop up automatically in a corner and show which wheel(s) lost traction. Perhaps display could show both current traction status and which wheels experienced loss of traction
Tesla ought to be able to privately expand their insurance program to track day coverages like RLI/Hagerty offer. It would be good R&D logging as well. I know the road insurance is limited to CA currently, but would think private event coverage would be doable.
In Quebec like elsewhere, we pay our Hydro Electricity based on outside temp. If temp < -12°c, electricity cost 6x. Can we get custom charging based on outside temp forecast? If weather expects temps to drop, charge now. If temp is to rise, charge when > -12°c when possible
99.9% of the time I want to enable autopilot with autosteer when doing the 2 downpresses of the control stalk on the steering wheel. I do not care for the cruise control function only after 1 downpress.
You've almost had it happen to you - you're backing up, looking at the rearview camera, then you touch the brakes and flip the gear selector to Drive. The camera goes away, but the car's still backing up. A second later, you hear the sound of the car hitting something.
As the title states, when the driver opens the door after Smart Summon, the mirrors should automatically unfold so the car can be driven immediately. Having to fiddle with settings while blocking the lane in front of a store isn’t fun for anyone.
Have a setting similar to chill on less aggressive lane changes.
The default is too aggressive for me.
Engaging autopilot (ACC) at current speed instead of speed limit would be practical in many cases. Suggestions (any combination of these):
“Freezing rain mode” where the tesla heats cabin to about 5°C a few times throughout the night to keep freezing rain/snow from accumulating on car and windows and especially on door handles
games where you may play with other Teslas at Supercharger station. Send a game request by selecting stall number.
I believe airlines have these types of games based on seat number.
When changing from podcast to radio lower the volume to a default setting. As the podcast requires a higher volume yet changing back to radio it’s really loud. And useful for Resetting back to when starting next trip.
Allow a half or one third screen size version of the energy graphs page, similar to how the music page has a half screen mode.
It's nice sometimes to be able to monitor the energy usage while still being able to see the map.
Almost every premium sedan on the market with a rear camera and ultrasonic sensors has this feature by now. The Model 3 has all the necessary hardware already installed. RCA can safe lifes and thousands of Dollars/Francs/Euros in cash. Thank you, Elon.
While driving the car in 'manual' mode (w/o Autopilot) cars in my blind spot appear in the same color as all the others on the screen. I'd greatly appreciate it if their color would change to red if they 'coast' in my blind spot for more than - let's say two seconds.
I don't have any mobile phone coverage in my garage, therefore I can't use preheating/cooling when my car is charging.
It would be very nice to be able to start pre-heating/cooling based on a pre-set schedule using either the app or an in-car menu.
When charging not at home/work leave the charging status screen on and the charge port LED indicator lit-up even after the car is locked.
"Wink mode"- the ability to turn off one of the daytime running lights temporarily in effect winking to other Tesla's?
Due to direct screen controls, you can turn on front heated seats w/o turning on cabin heating. This is not possible for the rear seats. You have to turn on cabin heating, turn on the rear seats and then go back and turn off cabin heating. Rinse and repeat for any changes to rear heated seats.
As a driver it would be very helpful to be able to adjust the front passenger seat via the screen. Currently if this is needed (to help a front or rear passenger), the driver must either exit the vehicle or with the vehicle parked, lean over and manually adjust the seat ...
Every single day I go back and forth towards my garage when I forget to take my celular.
Everytime I’m home and have to fetch something in the car and find it locked. If we have a “fold mirrors at this location” why the hell not a “leave car open at this location”?
