Tesla Update 2022.36.1 Finally Lets You Track Your Energy Consumption

For years, Tesla owners have wanted to have an exact breakdown of their energy consumption and they've had to go to external apps such as TeslaFi. However, Tesla has finally decided to bring these features directly to their vehicles in Software Update 2022.36.1.

1. Energy App Improvements

Now, you can track the battery percentage consumed when driving and parked, by:
- Driving
- Climate
- Battery Conditioning
- Elevation
- Everything Else
Directly from your Tesla vehicle.

This feature has been requested many times by Tesla roadtrippers and is often a point of confusion for those who leave their car overnight to find out it has consumed a noticeable amount of charge. Hopefully this quality-of-life change can finally put drivers at ease.

2. Cabin Overheat Protection

In addition to this, 2022.36.1 allows for the temperature at which the Cabin Overheat Protection feature activates to be configurable, with the options being at 85º F, 95º F, and 105º F.

3. Supercharging Map Update

The Tesla Supercharging map has now been updated to show the historical availability and supercharging price of each location, similarly to how Yelp and Google show the availability of a restaurant at any given time in each day.

This feature is particularly useful based on how difficult it can be for drivers to plan ahead when sets of stalls become suddenly unavailable.

4. Other Small Features

The Tesla app will now notify you if your car doors have been left open.

Nice that they’re making the energy screen more useful. Unfortunately for me I’m on FSD which is 16 Weeks behind… At least it’s something to look forward to!

Now if they could bring back the trip card so we have a quick, easy way to see our trip stats without blocking the entire screen…

Thanks for the info, great Improvements! The car doors open feature has been there for long time.

There are reports 2022.36.2 that it bricked the rear screen on Model S&X ?

Just installed it on 2021 MS and the screen seems fine (Carakoee was working!)

 

[y2khd]

I just got the update 2022.36.2 on my legacy MS. is there a reason I don't have the new energy app...?

 

[geordi]

I've got a MCU2 2014 Model S that just got 36.2 last night, and I don't have that energy app either. Don't know why.

 

[GtiMart]

New S and new X, not older ones it seems. See here: 2022.36.2 Official Tesla Release Notes - Software Updates

Left behind again…

I’m still not giving up my free supercharging to upgrade.

True… I don’t even have the free supercharging. Some things are hardware limitation but i don’t see why mcu2 can’t display detailed energy data….

 

[geordi]

Tesla service said that the energy app is only for the new ones "for now" but that may change with a future firmware update.

Not holding my breath on their having accurate information, but cautiously optimistic.

It’s just part of the ritual of humiliation that they’re putting us legacy car owners through.

 

[Catbiscuits]

OMG. I've been wanting configurable temps for cabin overheat protection forever.

 

[popgodazipa]

Well they have to figure a way to get us out of these cars and into a new model someway.

I’m with you…I’m not giving up free SC for that.

 

[geordi]

Definitely not giving up free supercharging - I've owned this car since May of this year, already put over 25k miles on it and according to the stats tracking, slurped up several thousand dollars worth of supercharging. Just a quick napkin calculation, over 6000 kWh on around the last 15k miles or so (going from memory) with most of that on superchargers since it was all road trips - a minimum of $2700 at 45c/kWh. Yeah.... Keep the energy stats screen!

The open car door notification has been around for a long time.

What does the Cabin Overheat Protection feature do?

Updated to 2022.36.2 but no new energy app

Legacy really getting left behind feel even worse for people who got a 2021 dont even have the free supercharging and missing on tons of updates

Just the benefit of the lowest pricing on these models witnessed.
