I love driving with navigate on autopilot on and can't wait for FSD 10.x to come out!
One feature I wish Tesla would incorporate is optimizing the braking during autopilot to fully use regen without the brakes at all. For example, when I'm coming up to a red light, the car continues to maintain a high speed and then rather suddenly and abruptly slows down using the brakes as I approach the light. I would love for the car to calculate how much distance is remaining until the stoplight and use only regen to slow the car down. This would increase the battery range because it would use regen more and minimize the wear on the brakes. In absence of this, I end up canceling autopilot often as I come up to a stop light and try to coast/regen to exactly the point where the car would stop without touching the brakes.
Thoughts?
