New features in Tesla version 10

[BigNick]

Here are the top three features Tesla is working on for v10:

1. Fixed roof for all Model S cars. Regardless of your roof type, Tesla will be disabling the software controls to open and close the roof. (Make sure your roof is closed before updating.)

2. Simplified climate control. Just adjust the temperature. Nothing else can be adjusted. The software will control all air speed, direction, recirculate mode and air conditioning.

3. Single-channel radio. No manual tuning, no fiddling with presets.

I joke of course. But it seems this is the road they are going down. Taking away S features that differentiate it from the 3.

I'd be happy with v10 if they just take v8 and rename it.

I like the way you are thinking! If they do that, I'll be really happy with v12, as my fav version so far was v6.2

The great feature of V10 is: the return of PONG.

V10, V10, where are you? Hopefully they can get it right this time.

I actually like V9. It's my favorite of all of the releases. I don't know what the fuss is all about. Could it be better? Sure... but it beats the living heck out of the labyrinth of menus in my wife's Audi.

 

[Saghost]

The only thing that really annoys me about v9 is that the percentage at destination is now only visible if the Nav is zoomed out to the leg or troop levels.

It used to be you could choose the number of directions to see and zoom level separately, but now they're linked, and the percentage is only available on the full list.

There are features I'd like to have and things that are a little more awkward than before, but that's the only one that routinely annoys me.

Do you have the newer faster MCU2? Maybe that makes a difference.

 

[Barry]

Regardless of MCU version, there's still way too much eyes-at-knee-level in V9. Not to mention all the color removed from maps.

Yes I do... now. But I also had it in my prior P85D, and I liked it then too. It doesn't stress me to look low on the screen for a couple of seconds to change the audio source. On my wife's Audi it's much worse because you have to futz with a bunch of unlabeled, mode dependent buttons on the console around the gear selector. That takes far more attention from the road than Tesla's system.

+1 Saghost — totally agree. I now constantly flip between direction heading up (preferred) and overall route merely to see the state of charge at my destination and thus adjust my speed accordingly to arrive at the desired SoC. Tesla—please bring this back. Thanks!

If I'm on a longer trip where I am concerned about charge levels I keep the energy graph up which I find extremely helpful at giving me accurate information to adjust my driving accordingly.

Just to clarify, are you referring to the graph in the display that is directly in front of the driver or on the 17 inch screen? If on the 17 inch screen, does it take up the bottom half of the display still leaving maps on the top half?

I'm still a noob, have had my 75D for only 2 weeks so far.

I hope for better M3 wiper functionality, and I don't just mean the automatic wiper feature - but rather the basics...

It's the graph on the 17" screen and takes up the bottom. This shows your actual energy use as compared to predicted use and projects what your charge will be at the end of the trip. The end of trip prediction is dynamic and fluctuates with your actual performance. If you haven't used it, definitely check it out. If you hit the up arrow on the bottom of the 17" screen and choose "Energy", it will come up.

Thanks! Will definitely try that out!

No problem. Congratulations on your purchase and best of luck. Remember, it only works if you have a destination entered in Nav.

Scratch that. Rename Version 7, cause then you'd go back to fixed top commands, on NAV too, and the "+" and "-" delayed animations would go away.

I won't compare subsequent Tesla UI versions, to Audi. How about, I dunno. Tesla?

Tesla has moved commands and placed others in sub-sub-menus (like SW heat). That shark is jumped.

I bet Version 10 buries Model S controls, as moving bonus icons in the games. Wanna turn the heat up? Shoot the correct asteroid...

I heard you're going to have the correct combination of farts in Emission Testing mode.
