In many countries safety vests / reflective vests are mandatory.
right now i got 2 vests in the clove box and 3 in the seatpockets.
It would be great if every seat got a small pocket underneath for the safety vests like in the air planes.
Front passenger seat to have the same ability for entry mode as the drivers seat? Or have passenger seat settings? Or have the ability from the drivers seat to control the passenger seat positioning from the center display?
It would be good to add 18" wheels without Aero Caps to list in wheel customisation menu, with range recalculation and everything.
Also, It would be nice if one could change caliper colors.....
Teslas are really quiet but road noise is kind of loud. Especially on the highway. Using its awesome speakers, and microphones, if Teslas could produce a sound wave inside, that is opposite to the road noise, It would make the cabin much quieter.
At the moment every charge at a Tesla Supercharger is invoiced separately. This creates a lot of administrative work in the (Dutch) tax system. Please make it possible to download a monthly invoice for all supercharge sessions.
Volvo car app has this option for years. Tesla window buttons are way more sensitive. as a consequence quite often I see that one of the windows has been for days. a notification from the app with a button to lock from notifocation window would be great!
The premium Model 3 stereo with all the doors open is the ultimate boombox. However, the car keeps going to sleep and shutting the sound system down. Using camp mode keeps it awake, but waists energy unnecessary running the climate control and other systems.
Autopilot will hang out in other vehicle's blind spots all day long. This behavior is very unnerving, quite unlike how I naturally drive and one area where autopilot feels less safe. Speed or following distance should automatically adjust one step down (closer) or two steps back (further) as re
I have a narrow garage that I use to back in to. Half way in I usually fold the mirrors to avoid hitting the garage port. On the Model S this was a physical button at the door handle but on the Model 3 I need to enter the main menu that will render over the reverse camera.
Presently, the audio volume jumps to the last-remembered level pretty abruptly when switched on, and gets cut in a similar manner when switched off.
Would be nice to have the sound fade in/out softly.
I often drive alone and have the emotion, that I definitely would love to pickup others.
But "others" would mean to me - nice people, who know to appreciate that.
So in the first build - I think easiest would be to offer the service to other Tesla-Owners.
It would be nice if it was possible to change the maximum amount of current the onboard charger is allowed to use from the API.
This is useful, because then your smart home could reduce the current when doing the laundry or using the electric stove for instance.
When opening a door, have the computer check that no one is close to the vehicle. Many people are injured and killed because they are riding a bike or running near a parked vehicle when someone opens the door in front of them. Bikes, in particular, are often required by law to ride close to p
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):
