360 View only shows cars in front

[rycart]

I just purchased a 2016 CPO 70D. The 360 view only shows the cars in front of my vehicle and not beside or behind me. I've applied all the software updates. I looked through all of the settings. Am I missing something?

If your car only has AP1, it won't be able to show 360 view of cars around it.

OK, that makes sense. Is Autopilot 2 a paid software upgrade?

No. It requires hardware that has been installed in cars since mid October 2016. It has 8 cameras instead of one and enhanced ultrasonic sensors. Elon said it would be the equivalent of a spinal cord transplant trying to upgrade an AP1 car to AP2. There are plans to upgrade AP2 cars to AP2.5 (or AP3) since that upgrade won't be as involved.

You can check if you have ap1 vs 2 by looking to see if you have cameras on the b pillar or repeater lights.
