Tesla Software

Tesla's first OTA update for the Year of the Tiger, developed by its China team, will bring karaoke functionality and allows owners to change the vehicle color of the center console screen.

Users will have to purchase the Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving packages to use the feature.

The update changes the minimum speed to trigger the AEB feature from 8km/h to 5km/h.

Tesla recently launched a monthly subscription service for Full Self-Driving (FSD), and the potential of the business promises to make Tesla's software business more valuable than its hardware, according to Morgan Stanley.

One of the most notable features of the Tesla Model S Plaid is the auto shift feature, and a hint from the company's CEO Elon Musk suggests that the feature will come to other models in the future as well.

The ability to use a vehicle via a mobile app is an important feature of smart cars, but it can also cause a lot of inconvenience if the app's network connection is lost.

Tesla said the issue does not exist in Model S/X, which have different cruise control lever positions and have a very small probability of false activation.

Tesla is conducting a huge recall in China, involving almost all vehicles sold in the country since 2019. This is related to just the vehicle software though, and the company will provide fixes via OTA.

The single-pedal mode is not unique to Tesla, and users should familiarize themselves with the technical characteristics of new energy vehicles, said the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

Autopilot requires a subscription system rather than a one-time buyout, otherwise, users will be hindered by the high price, Qin said.
