It seems like people are using "new nav" and "new maps" interchangeably, but I think they are independent updates. My car was delivered with new maps, but I didn't get Navigation Beta until a couple days ago.

Driving in the Bay Area is sort of a crap shoot for delays in many cases. All it takes is one fender bender to throw everything akilter.Ultimately, Tesla's routing was much more accurate regarding the ETA of the path it chose and seems to have saved me about 30 minutes (assuming Waze was correct in its initial assessment of how long the Dumbarton Bridge route would have taken).

I wonder if WAZE uses some sort of statistical analysis/machine learning to predict the likelihood of a traffic delay vs just the averages for a given time of the day?
I havent gotten my map update yet, but I dont think there is such an option - no carpool lane preferenceDumb question: how do I get the new maps/nav to acknowledge carpool lane and express lane access in the Bay Area ? Waze has a means to turn that on, but I'm not convinced the new Tesla maps are doing that - it routes me along ways I know would be longer and could be avoided by sticking to a nearby carpool/express lane.

I didn't see that there was an email address in the release notes. But in my defense, as I posted elsewhere on the forum, the 17" screen rebooted on me when I got in the car the day it first downloaded the new nav software and announced it on the screen, just as I started reading it. I never looked at the notes since then. Thank you very much for the advice!@MasterT @suraj1194 Have you sent your request for that feature to the email address in the release notes?
That's exactly where I had issues with believing that the map is aware of HOV/express lanes. I take 237W from 880S and this morning it instead told me to keep going further and take Tasman. I stuck to 237 express lane instead.It does not appear to be a feature yet unfortunately. But it is at least somewhat aware of HOV lanes. Once I took the HOV flyover from 880 to 237 and it correctly understood that I cannot legally leave the HOV lane for 3 more exits. It rerouted me to take that 3rd exit and do a U-turn and get back on 237 to get to my destination, which is technically/legally the right thing to do.

Yes it does reroute me when it realizes I'm on the express ramp, but that's a fairly useless capability. I'm going to follow @MP3Mike's advice and become one more party emailing their contact address asking for this capability. There's a huge difference between HOV-aware and non-HOV routes here in the bay area during rush hour, as we all know...Well, I notice that it never ever instructs you to take the express flyovers, so I think that's somehow excluded in the routing engine. It's just, if you do it yourself, it seems to react in a way that suggests it's aware of the concept.

Is this with the new maps? The reason I ask is that this was my first test case. The old maps would send me down a rutted dirt/mud road to save 1 minute of time. The new maps take the paved route.Feature Request: I would like an option to avoid gravel roads. I am not sure if any navigation/mapping system has this option.
It might be a Midwest issue but Tesla KC brought me up test car with last Thursday. I helped the Customer Experience Specialist avoid the direct route along a gravel road but it rerouted her to the next gravel road instead of going an extra 45 seconds out of the way on a paved road.
