Tesla: Highlights from our upcoming Spring Release below
- Thread starter M42 Fan
- Start date
Now if they just said what version number it will be, what version of FSD it will include, and when it will actually be available.
For those without X access:
I do wonder what on the new Model S/X and upgrade Model 3 they are using to enable the Hands-Free Trunk feature. (I think that would be a nice addition.) Did they add an additional BT sensor?
Interesting note: Rivian just added an "Are we there yet?" feature to their rear screen as well.

Your Tesla gets better while you sleep

The "upgraded" Model 3, without stalks, isn't even getting the new Auto Shift Beta feature... (At least not yet.)
But I agree the Model 3/Y should be able to opt in to enable the Auto Shift feature, and maybe they will at some point once it is further refined. (Just like vehicles with the ultrasonic sensors don't get the High-Fidelity Park Assist feature, or the new improved Autopark. (Again, maybe once they are further refined Tesla will enable them on older configurations.)

Please tell me I can turn that off...
My guess would be the UWB support in these models ?
That seems unlikely. Though I don't know why I need to be "Immersed" in my vehicle controls while I'm parked.
But I assume tapping on the map tile in the upper right corner gives you access to a larger map to do your planning. I'm not sure what I think about it, so I'll have to give it a go once it is out.
Personally I finally feel like the current version of the UI has been perfected, they resolved all the issues people had with it when it was first added. Even the notorious auto-wiper problems have become far less frequent, and we're able to turn them off again.
Not a big fan of the redesign based on those screenshots, the map definitely should be bigger and more visible. Though maybe the fact I still have an Intel chip means I won't get that change? The other new features sound nice, but not essential

That screenshot is for when the car is parked. We don't know what the while driving screen will look like. Probably fairly normal most of the time, and it is when you expand the FSD visualizations to full screen that the map goes to just being in the upper right corner. In other words, when you want to see what the car is seeing and you don't care as much about the map. (I think this UI change is pretty much what is in the Cybertruck already.)
Correct.

Imo the best changes are the updated playback controls and Spotify improvements.

I hope the visualizations are more detailed like the FSD ones even without FSD
Cybertruck also getting the love:
Also for Cybertruck:
Powersharing from Vehicle to Home
During grid outages, Cybertruck can power your home using your Universal Wall Connector & Powershare Gateway.
Colorizer
Wrap your digital Cybertruck to match your wrap in real life.
New Horn and Lock Sounds
Lock & unlock your Cybertruck to try them out.
Cabin Overheat Protection
Helps maintain a set temp for up to 12 hours after you park.
Turning Circle
Turning circle is now improved by 1.6 feet, making parking & low-speed maneuvers even easier.
No, it doesn't. The new beta will shift between drive and reverse for you automatically. Like when doing a multipoint turn. You just use the accelerator and brake pedal, no screen input.

2022 Model 3 Performance
Because the S/X have an IC where lots of that is displayed. The new UI/visualizations are only for the vehicles with a single front screen: 3/Y/Cybertruck.
