Outside temperature off?

[Mateo83]

Anyone else Notice the outside temperature is displaying about 10 degrees cooler than it actually is outside?

Consistently?
Currently my outdoor temp shows 93*F on the weather app - 95*F on the tesla app for exterior.
I'm on the latest software version (2024.20.1) as well

I live in South FL and have owned 5 Teslas over 8 years, and all of them always have shown the outside temp to be higher than it really is.

For me, it's usually fairly accurate while driving, however it can show higher than it really is if the car has been parked in direct sunlight.

Outside temperature sensor is directly above the radiator, so if your car is not driving, it will show higher than the actual.

I never trust the outside temperature

The outside air temperature is only “accurate” when you have been driving for a while (it needs airflow and time to adjust). But never expect perfection. This is true for most, if not all cars.

Mine is showing 10 degrees cooler that it really is since that last update.

I don’t have that one yet. When (if) I get it, I’ll see if it makes a difference. Currently on 2024.14.9 in both cars.
