No dual zone HVAC. Heat pump limitation?

[ratsbew]

I watched a review video and it looks like the Y doesn't currently implement dual zone HVAC. Is this a limitation of the heat pump?

Maybe this is the culprit in that instance.

From the manual:
"When Model Y detects that there are no passengers sitting in the passenger seat, the passenger vent and controls automatically turn off."

TURN OFF? interesting.....can you manually turn off the vents by zone in the Model Y? This has been my wife's #1 complaint about our 3 and the inability to turn off the vents by zone in the front. She HATES the air being on in her zone unless really hot or cold.

Good god, if you could solve the marital HVAC battles you would be very wealthy my friend!

I just saw a pop-up for a youtube video (haven't watched it yet) that said if you use your steering wheel voice activation control, and say "unsync climate control" , you will have dual climate controls. Will watch and try this later. Credit: BrewersArcade on Youtube.

I believe it is a software version issue. Dual Zone capabilities show up in a later version of the software. When us Y owners get synced up it and several other major features will be added I believe

worked for me! Thank youuuuu!!!

Did you actually test setting different temperatures? Does it work correctly? (I wonder if they took it out of the UI because the software wasn't ready yet, but they missed disabling the voice commands.)

It works just like the 3. I tried raising and lowering the temps on each side together and opposite. It all works as expected.

A lot of electric cars turn off zones that are unoccupied to save battery range.

Oh I know, however it will randomly sync again or when you get out you have to do it again. 1st world issue. Lol but I’m sure all the issues will be resolved soon enough. We have a lot of issue with Bluetooth specially walk away lock. That’s a hit or miss and mainly a miss. It might lock 20% of the time

new update today fixed the issue! woot
