Here it is the new Tesla Maps ( coming this weekend? )

[aesculus]

My car got the map update today (last week I got 8.12 fw). I am not on WiFi (car has never connected to WiFi in the garage) and definitely was not on when it announced the update after a day of skiing. I was in the middle of the Sierra Nevada with a decent LTE signal.

I have not been on the boards as much (darn life stuff)

My car was updated Thursday. On WiFi. It basically listed the only change as being able to open the trunk from within the car or something along that. Not enough for me to really pay attention.

Then I was at my mom's house on Saturday. The car was home the majority of the time Friday. My car is not on WiFi at my moms, but, when I left her house Saturday (was there for 8 hours or so) I had a screen welcoming me to the new maps.

So, I am in the no. You do not need to be on WiFi to get your maps updated camp.

I am a bit dyslexic. I like the slightly more minimal screen and the ability to see upcoming turns, etc a little better.

Just got pushed the 2018.12 update .Looking at the maps I notice nothing different. Hopefully this map change isn't a negative one

Went on a road trip this weekend with 2018.12 and had the CID crash and reboot several times while driving. Never seen that before and no new maps either.

I haven't seen any maps either...

Team, as @verygreen @croman as said so many times, the firmware has nothing to do with the maps update, and despite whatever you feel or think your not getting the maps update unless you are on WiFi or a SC visit, regardless of your firmware....

Has anyone confirmed receiving the maps update without first installing 2018.12?

 

[croman]

I thought we all agreed not to post about getting or not getting firmware or features but rather only substantive comments about the features. It gets really annoying reading inane posts that were answered pages back about what is going on.

No. I believe 2018.12 white lists cars for getting the map update.

The code to run the maps, has been present for a very long long time, the only thing required for the maps is the 5G download from the server. Everything's been in place for a long time.

I got new MAP ( Mobile Assistance Paper ) already in my Canadian Tesla.View attachment 291320

Your doors have pockets for storage?!

Yeah, this. Forget the map discussion.

 

[lunitiks]

My first thought exactly.

Brand new car?

EDIT: Check out my new door map pocket!

Moving beyond the debate of getting the new maps via wifi or LTE:

I have noticed two improvements to the navigation for me.

1. There is a rutty, dirt and mud road in my area that is 1/4 mile shorter and the old navigation maps favored that routing. The new maps don't go that way
2. A few places have improved road names where there were errors before.

 

[eyespii]

Boom. Just got’em! One obvious difference - the new maps actually have my house in the database! My neighborhood is about 3 years old now. Cannot wait to navigate home from work tomorrow now!

Does anyone know if old non-AP cars from 2012 are even capable of using the new nav? I got an update yesterday that just added roadside assist dialing from the T logo at the top of the screen and nothing else.

Buddy of mine in a 13 non ap s85 got the firmware 18.12 update AND maps.
I got the update 6 days ago but no maps.. but I'm on a 6m dsl line at home

I just got home to my sweet wifi. Old nav warned me about I-90 being detoured but I ignored it and lost 1 hour stuck in traffic. I guess old nav isn't completely useless and I'm a fool for disregarding it (even if it was sending me through Amish country).

I am on 2018.10 and just got the map updates. Still waiting on 2018.12
