Do/ when will we get NoA in the UK?

[ben_c]

From timanrebel in another European thread:

It is interesting to see that it is also dependent on the country and not only the car. Driving a Dutch M3 with NOA over the border to Belgium and later France, disables NOA the minute you cross. Arriving in the UK yesterday was a surprise, since NOA is available here. Especially surprising since the M3 is not.

Post - #15

Do we think this is likely to roll out with M3, or a configuration option they've not disabled yet?

sorry what is NOA? ok figured it out navigate on autopilot.

NOA is due to come to all new model S and X too maybe they are getting ready to roll this out with a software update.

This would be fantastic if it does roll out as I’m lining Elon’s wallet having ticked the FSD option on a new MX.

Tesla have to do a lot of work to deal with national differences in road markings and there are a lot of subtleties to these.
It will come, but unfortunately for non-US territories we have to expect delayed release.

The post in the European forum said it was available in the UK when they brought their M3 over... so curious to see if that’s an oversight from Tesla or ready to go when we get M3!

Do MS and MX not share identical hardware with M3 in this regard? If so, why would its rollout be linked to M3 arrival except for just a volume increase in their cars in the UK?

 

[pjuk]

Maybe it will go into a testing phase for RHD market. I would imagine that the roll out of M3 will allow for a substantial increase in data for UK road markings etc... and what will follow will be a slow and steady release of NOA to users.

It does not seem to be an oversight, since driving our Dutch M3 with NOA enabled across the border to Belgium and later France disabled NOA immediately after crossing the border. It was a surprise to us that NOA was re-enabled when we drove off the ferry in Dover. I have only tested NOA on the larger A and M roads in southern England, but it did seem to work fully. Including RHD (overtaking slower cars on the left and not overtaking slower cars driving in the right lane). It was a real pitty we couldn't use NOA on our way back to Amsterdam in France and Belgium. You really get used to it fast

Thanks - really appreciate it and sounds promising!

Just saw a post elsewhere showing NoA in the UK on 2019.16.1.1
Anyone else?!

 

[NorfolkMustard]

Got a link?

 

[DJP31]

Got a link?

I can’t link to it as it’s from the closed FB Group but have seen the release notes and NoA confirmed. Owner also checked the settings in the car and they are there.

 

[pilotedge]

I'm updating right now as it happens so I'll report back...

 

[pilotedge]

Yup. NoA confirmed.

 

[squarepeg77]

I don’t like the sound of “Due to new local regulations...”

 

[DJP31]

View attachment 408488 Yup. NoA confirmed.

Which version of AP do you have?

 

[PDB33]

2019.16.1.1 arrived this morning.

June 2017 build 75D AP2

One of the few AP2 cars to get it so far .

The change to Summon seems odd. It says Bluetooth has to be active and the phone connected before Summon will work. Have you tried Summon since getting it?

 

[PDB33]

I have not been driving today and have not tried it (ever). Maybe a Bluetooth connection restricts the distance between summoner and summoned - presumably it was GPS previously.

 

[NorfolkMustard]

Yeah. Requiring Bluetooth connection means it won’t work very far. Doesn’t bode well for Advanced Summon later on.
