Whatever happened to the front bumper camera and ambient lighting?

Here was the single source I’ve seen about it:

I’m seriously hoping this is true; my wife will upgrade her X if it is. Otherwise, we keep the Raven.

I loved them in my F150. I never drove with them off.

How did you stay awake while driving?

I have a hard time believing that massaging seats are coming anytime soon, if ever. It would have to be an incredibly well kept secret given how much interest there is on all things Tesla out there.

Meanwhile we can guesstimate when these features are coming to S/X:

How about the Highland performance seats in Plaid S/X? It might improve interior space too if they are less bulky.

I read that and the performance seats in the Plaid S catalog and hoped they come out for my '24 Plaid X. Nope.

TBH, I thought the seats in my PY were twice as comfortable as the ones in my new X.

I have the same EDD (for my X) and was told its build date was 3/1.

Frankly I’m glad to be getting the car that was made per my order (not a reject) with FUSC and FSD transfers to boot. Was offered a reject in December and could not shake it (put my order on hold and got the same car after releasing my hold) and had to cancel the order. 3 months later, I get FSD transfer added with the POs federal incentive in place. More than good enough for me.

Who told you when it was built? Or is there a way to find out online?

The second SA I got (randomly) on the phone gave me the information. The 1st claimed she couldn’t determine; I out of curiosity checked with the 3rd as I had a different question to ask her and she gave the same answer as the first which confirmed to me they have been trained to not provide the date out of fear that the VIN would be rejected if the build date was not March.

I guess this is confirmed as fake news seeing as how its been a month (and into next quarter)

That sucks, but you're probably right.

It's still possible it's a future planned update, but at least the rumors of it being a March release seem to be false given no news about anyone getting these features.

I’m glad I didn’t wait. Have been enjoying my X for almost 5 months now

6 weeks here, but at least I got the updated yoke.

Yeah, another reason to never trust those guys lying on the web, such as Teslascope, claiming they know things before everyone. This is a solid reason that their reputation is going down the drain.
They claimed that starting March 1st all Tesla S and X are getting the ambient lighting and Front camera.

Almost as bad as the "my Tesla Service Advisor or Tech said...." reports.

I'm pretty sure this was someone trying to get people to delay deliveries and tank Tesla's numbers. Must be someone who has a short position on TSLA stock, and if so, it def worked.

LOL, because of those sky high sales numbers for the model X?

Highly unlikely.

Model S/X average only about 15-25k units COMBINED per quarter, for years now. On par with Q1 this year.

There is a lot of 3/Y’s sitting yet to be delivered.

Front camera is definitely coming soon

This could very well be a view from the rear view mirror cameras as well....
