No Vent Mode? AP2 MCU1 EAP...v2019.32.11.1

Is there a reason I’m not seeing vent mode, or is it only available for the model 3?

Looks like only available on 3 and X. I have no idea why its not available on the S, maybe in a future version? Dunno.

The Tesla blog mentions that it is available on the 3 and X. (And the X is limited to opening the windows, only the Model 3 can remotely close them.)

So much for being flagship cars, I guess....

You can vent the model S if you have the panoramic sunroof.

Although there have been some really hot days when I wish I could also remotely roll down all the windows in the model S.

They treat the model 3 like the flagship car, newest features first and clearly designed for the landscape screen. Embarrassing.

WAG with no supporting evidence, but I wonder if they didn’t build in the sensors or controls until the Model X came around?

Yeah, but a lot of Model S owners have specifically said that they don't want a landscape screen, and that they wouldn't purchase a refreshed S if it came with one... i.e. You can't make everyone happy.

I love the current screen, portrait mode. That said, videos are better on landscape. I think the S screen has more potential, obviously because it’s larger. Tesla just doesn’t want to take advantage. Which goes to the earlier posts in this thread

I don't think its that they don't want a landscape screen, but they don't want the model 3 "staple an ipad to the dashboard while leaving the rest of the interior barren" look. I love my S interior currently and if they can find an elegant way to integrate a landscape screen plus keep the instrument cluster I'm all in.

Able to only open but not close on the x? I can see some issues with that.
