When using autopilot on country roads, we don't alway want to be at the exact center of the lane. We usually need to be a little more at the right of the lane to get more distance between the car and the other cars coming from the opposite direction.
When listening to music on a high volume, the same volume immediately returns after a call and you will be scared.
Please turn up the volume slowly to the previous level after receiving a phonecall.
It would be nice to get a push notification if you forgot to plug in at home.
It would be nice to have a bluetooth connection associated with a driver's profile (and key).
I love listening to my Daily Mixes & Discover Weekly on Spotify. I have discovered some true gems of songs and artists that way. And nothing better to find music to suit my mood. Unfortunately Tesla's Spotify implementation doesn't feature these mixes. Please do!
This will enable safer on-ramping, and making turns where a faster mode of acceleration is needed for the duration of the turn.
Tesla needs to implement a feature that dynamically allows the setting of a temporary speed limit. A feature often found on European, but sadly almost never found on American cars.
As per the description of Volvo:
The dome light turns off after 60 seconds, which isn't long enough to buckle a child (or two) in a child seat. It's very difficult to get my kids in the car in the dark, so I usually have to close the door and open it again once or twice just to finish the task.
Instead of having random modes to try to fit into everyone's lifestyles, such as Dog Mode or Romance Mode try creating an event base settings similar to IFTTT or Apple Shortcuts where a given event happens such as parking at a location other than your home or work.
Is it the best idea to have a USB device with unencrypted video files of your travels? How tough would it be to code some form of password protection?
In my Model X, the trunk light automatically switches off after a few minutes while the lid is open - often in the middle of myself loading something. The currently only way to get the light back on is to close and re-open the lid.
It would be really handy to have a screen with the recent trips and charges with the most relevant key facts i.e.:
Trips: distance, duration, power consumption, avg. consumption, start and end location
Charges: location, duration, added power, start SoC, end SoC
It would be nice to have an overview over all power consumers with the actual power consumption i.e. AC, seat heaters, battery system, infotainment, sentry mode, etc. to identify high power consumers. I think I've seen that in some japanese cars.
In warm climate, with high amps, sometimes charging the car can be very noisy. Fans at full speed gets very noisy than you have to lower the amps (from the WallBox as it is not possible from the app!).
When fast scrolling the tacc speed scroll wheel it works in increments of 5. In km/h countries this should be adjustable to 10 increments which makes much more sense since the speed limits work in 10 increments as well.
Have the ability to schedule climate control to come on at a certain time or have climate control come on in X hours time.
When a sentry event occurs, the car would open live streaming to the mobile app and user would be able to watch in real time what is going on with the car.
TPMS is not required by law in Canada.
Add an option to disable it, since by law here, we are required to run 2 sets of tires (summer and winter). Having TPMS always on is very annoying.
In the UK the road network uses miles and speed in miles per hour which are mandatory. However, many people use metric measurements for short distances like centimetres and metres in their daily lives so don't use inches and yards as these are not mandatory to know.
We haven't seen the implementation in version 10, but automatically turn on Joe(y) mode when rear seats are occupied.
Just in case it's not already in version 10, download YouTube and Netflix video to external storage when on Wi-Fi so that there's no need to use cellular data when parked to watch the video.
Find a way to gracefully change from Navigate on AutoPilot to Traffic-aware cruise control. Currently I have to cancel NoA and then enable TACC.
When changing lanes, increase the distance between yourself and the vehicle behind you. The auto-lane change works great, but the I end up too close to the vehicle behind me.
The current equalizer is pretty simplistic. Add some pre-configured equalizer modes such as Pop, Talk, Classical, etc.
