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
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.
“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
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?
The ability to create "Scenes" using the tesla app and activate them with voice command in the car. (Similar to Hue Scenes for Hue lights)
Would LOVE the option to auto adjust Autopilot (Cruise control) speed to speed limit.
Would be nice to be able to schedule departure through the app. My wife and I share the car so if I take our second vehicle she may not need it to be ready to go at 6 am. Would be nice if I didn't have to walk to the car to change that.
Only method for changing audio balancing in in music app but also affects vid apps. Would want audio settings added to each vid app and game app overlays for quick access without quitting apps to change. That or an app switching system so as to not lose progress.
Currently only method of moving between apps is to exit entirely. Would want a switcher system like what phones have to quickly move between previously opened apps.
Now that Tesla has more videogames in their cars, it could ne interesting for them to have a dedicated console at their Service centers to show their games...
It would be a great way to have a nice time while waiting for your Tesla to be serviced.
Add augmented reality direction hints over the front camera pictures in the center screen (and/or driver screen for S/X). Accurately calculated arrows should hover over the crossways showing the route to take and the name of the streets are shown directly in the camera feed.
Have a readily accessible icon on the main screen that, when pressed, records and send to Tesla information about an unexpected Autopilot event (e.g. the car suddenly slows for no reason, or the car starts a lane change and then suddenly swerves back to the original lane).
Add an icon at the top of the main screen that takes you quickly to the Adjust Mirrors page of the UI. OR... add a voice command option to Adjust Mirrors.
Add an option to tell the car the next time I plan to use it so that it can set a one time scheduled departure. I don't have a set schedule every day, so picking a time for scheduled departure for the entire week doesn't work for me. I would prefer if, upon arriving someplace, the car would ask
I dislike trying to carefully maintain 50 km/h which causes me to drive between 47-52 all the time. It would be nice if the car auto detects that I am trying to keep my speed at 50 and auto adjusts to keep that speed.
It should be possible to create read-only API tokens (best would be fine-grained access rights) so that one could more comfortably give access to 3rd party apps, without risking having the car stolen.
Send a push notification to a mobile device if the doors are not closed properly. Check if doors are not closed and smartphone is not nearby, then send a message.
Let the car switch to dark screen mode in a tunnel. Maybe synchronize with driving lights?
Watch dash cam and sentry mode videos directly in the Tesla Mobile App and on www.tesla.com
rather than choosing the speed through the screen, allow users to press the end of the stalk 1-2-3 times to activate wipe speed
We can beep the horn or flash the lights from the phone app, if we've forgotten just where in the parking lot the car is and that's great and useful. But I think it would be good if there was some sequence we could use on the fob to do the same thing, if it's inconvenient to get the phone out.
I have followed my own Tesla when my wife is driving, and when the car slows (clearly in regen braking) no brake lights appear at lower speeds unless the pedal is almost fully up. In normal cars the brakes would come on the instant the brake peddle is touched regardless of speed.
When you backup with a trailer the side sensors should monitor that the trailer won't hit the car. Distance directly behind the car via sensors shouldn't cause alarm sounds.
