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.
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.
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 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
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
