Im a nightshift worker, the select autopilot knock auto headlights off immediately became muscle memory.
With this update it is 110% better, massive improvement.
Never have to turn auto headlights off anymore, no one flashes.
atleast on highways it still tends to ignore oncoming trucks for way too long causing them to flashbang you, especially if their headlights are obstructed by bushes on the median. Other than that it seems pretty responsive.
@@BizzMRK Every car does this if it dosent see the headlights behind any landscape or something, kamera obvisouly cant see through things. Havent gotten to try this on my Model Y yet, since it havent been darked at my place in 3-4 months. Coming from Bmw X5 with laser lights, so I am eager to try
What update are you talking about? I installed 20.9 and the matrix headlights are still working poorly. They still blind oncoming vehicles.
@@Tpftww some german cars with matrix headlights I tried in the past managed to detect trucks that had their main headlights obscured and only the roof mounted ones visible which are less intense.
Yeah my adaptive headlights worked well straight away. It seems at first they would block column by column (at further rows) but after a update I think it just does big blocks.
Best thing about Tesla version of adaptive headlights is how much more it can keep active compared to other manufacturers’ versions. Others shuts of immediately for street lights or above/below certain speeds but Tesla, keeps them on.
Especially very good on the motorway for the ability of extended range of high beam
At least in Germany there are laws where you are allowed to use it.
I think 8:30 it would actually be not be allowed, because the street continuously lit up.
Hopefully the finally fixed the lights. I cannot count how many Teslas were blinding me in traffic. It definitely took way too long.
I think (in the US anyway) there were legal restriction to using tech like this, so they might’ve decided to just not do any at all until they could in the US
The low beam still blinds everyone since they have not calibrated the lights in their cars. 9 out of 10 times that I'm blinded by a car is a Tesla Model Y.
@@Danne89There is no low beam when matrix is active
Gone are the days of getting flashed in my Tesla- really great now. (We’re downunder, ie: Australia so RHD).
Model 3, the adaptive headlights is brilliant permanent nights also, it makes a huge difference at night without blinding anyone.
BIG W!!
I hate being blinded by MOdel 3 & Y cars in my low Model S car
Thanks Bjørn!
Would you have a top 5/10 of best adaptive headlights, based on your experience?
Cries in US.
Thanks NHTSA!
Definitely much better. Not managed to try on my model Y yet as too bright until late 😜
They added matrix in curves some updates later. The 20.9 was just Matrix stage 1 if I’m correct. 😊
Ja, heute das Update bekommen MYLR 10/23 😊😊😊
I just got this with the recent update with FSD 12.5. I yet to test them fully myself.
I get blinded by tesla headlights way less now. It has gotten so good over the last months that if I get blinded I dont automatically think anymore 'yeah a tesla is comming my way'.
The main problem with these is they don’t activate early enough at dusk - it has to get really dark before high beam starts being used.
And because there is no way to just manually turn on high beam without changing the settings, I end up driving around holding the stalk towards me to constantly 'flash', until it gets dark enough.
Jeez, what? That sounds uncomfortable. My Corsa is on the other end, it starts using the matrix high beam a little earlier than I would. When that happens I pull the stalk once and it goes into manual low beam until I pull the stalk again which triggers automatic matrix high beam again. So I can choose to go five or ten minutes during dusk with no high beams and then let the car do its thing again. It's actually a good "workflow".
What. You can disable auto if you flash them. That'll bring up the menu for it. Then you can toggle manually.
I have noticed this also. They need to add a setting like some cars have for general auto headlights with "turn-on time early/normal/late".
@@itsbilln2178 just like any other car with auto high beam . It has to be proper dark before they start using the auto feature. Have been the same across different cars I've previously owned .
@@NicoztrikeAbsolument pas. Si c’est le cas, alors c’est un défaut. Les feux doivent s’allumer au crépuscule, c’est à dire lorsqu’il fait encore jour mais que la lumière diminue, pas lorsqu’il fait déjà sombre.
2nd must have I want in a new car, hopefully the technology gets cheaper, cause for other car manufacturers it’s an add on cost
I wish the we could get the adaptive headlights for oncoming traffic without curves in the US. Instead our laws are preventing it for stupid reasons…
Headlight aiming is incorrect, too much to right side.
Once I received the update (M3 2021), I instantly noticed that the box was way too offset to right side. I found the Tesla headlight aiming manual and did the adjustment. Now the box was spot on centered on traffic. However, too high. I did lower the headlights and then they worked properly.
After that I had the headlight units replaced by Tesla for condensation and had a long dark drive home. Instantly I saw that headlight aim was again all over the place. Too low, too right sided… So stopped by a CircleK and did the quick adjustment myself. Again, perfect result.
Bottom line - proper adjustment per Tesla guide is almost always needed!
Wait, did Tesla send you off on your way with headlights out of alignment after the replacement? I call that shoddy work.
@@hadtopicausername yes. After replacement headlights were again aimed way to the right and so low that they iluminated like one car length ahead. As it fell dark only after a long ferry drive, going back was not an option. So I performed adjustment myself on a level surface pointing at a wall.
Makes you wonder what else that garage just skips doing when performing work on customer cars.
@@hadtopicausername they did also replace all taillights for condensation. Afterwards there were some minor scratches on paint around tail light units. Rubber seal of trunk was installed incorrectly (trunk carpeting was not layered into seal correctly), trunk opening plastic trim was loose, left trunk recess had a misaligned bottom piece creating a gap for small stuff to fall through beneath carpet. I fixed all that myself as I did apply additional noise deadening to rear resonant surfaces (btw, big improvement in road noise reduction). But yeah, not what I would call quality work by a service center.
Yes, garages like that exist, unfortunately. It can be a pain finding a good one.
The matrix function is ok. The auto highbeam are brutal and have gotten worse. I literally have to hold highbeams on when I enter the backroads at the cottage. Because I cannot turn them on full time.
It seems to be a nice improvement with these lights. As someone has pointed out, Tesla cars had "all the hardware necessary" for selectively blocking parts of the light cone for years now. But they only managed to deliver the actual feature now. It took them years. To get the lights behave acceptably well.
Now, I am trying to put that into a perspective of some other feature that Tesla has been advertising about for an even longer time. They have been claiming that their cars have "all the hardware necessary" for the so-called "full self-driving" feature. They have claimed that for years now. And yet, that feature is still unavailable. Not in the EU. Not in the US. Yes, I am aware that they are constantly improving. And yes, I understand that they might be 97 % there or 98 % there. It is possible.
But they are not 100 % there. And those last fractions of a percentage point take the longest. In order for their driving assistance system to be able to provide a fully featured self-driving experience, it is necessary for them to be 100 % there. No one would care about an assistance system that will drive you into a ditch or worse in 1 % of the situations. Or even in 0.1 % of the situations. That would not be acceptable. Such a system also would not receive regulatory approval to be operated without a constant human supervision. Which means that it cannot possibly be called a "full self-driving" system.
So, I am wondering, if kind-of-acceptable pixel lights took Tesla 3 years or so to develop, how long would it take them to develop a feature that is much more difficult, much more demanding and delicate to design and test. They of course claim that they will be done "by the end of next year". And they keep claiming something like that for years now.
Given all of these facts, I think that whatever they claim now about their "full self-driving" feature's availability cannot be trusted, unfortunately. They themselves have created this kind of bad vibe about it. By constantly over-promising and under-delivering.
I get blinded by tesla headlights way to often. It is gotten so bad that if I get blinded I automatically think 'yeah a tesla is comming my way'.
Yeah same ! When I'm on the road and I get blinded in my mirrors I'm like, ah, yes. Model Y.
If people have updated and activated matrix it's way better. I don't get blinded by Tesla's nearly as often anymore .
They are not using matrix then, and they are on autopilot. With matrix you don’t get blinded.
This was maybe two years ago where automatic headlights was very slow to react so either they didn’t update or their angles are not set up correctly i have seen the latter more often
At least with Tesla we know they'll update the lights sooner or later. Probably later. But not never like a legacy automaker.
We got some of the features enabled in Canada AFAIK - I feel like I noticed them for a bit, but they're not particularly active now. Maybe another update tuned out some of the adaptiveness.
This update works with cars several years old
Hi Björn, when are you testing the Xpeng G6? You had only a small test. Awaiting your reply. Greetings of a loyal viewer.
I had to adjust my MY headlights due to them blinding, but now they're way off, so I dont know an easy way to reset them. I think the user experience for adjusting them could be.....more friendly 😂
I just asked them to adjust it when I was at the service center for a different issue. They adjusted it down for free even though I'm not under warranty anymore
Park your car on a level ground, go into service menu select light calibration wait for it Todo it's thing, done.
simple answer for headlight test. In Europe Model Y is a german car and Model 3 is a chinese car - ABC Allways Blame Chinese
How do they compare with the lights of BMW iX1 and 2?
I would state the best headlights nobody paid a upgrade for 🎉(:
Sadly highland model 3 got a little worse again with less individual pixels
2024.20.7 schould already have adaptive light for curves but i didn't see that in the settings..
I had that with .6 at least
It said it in the settings in the video
@@lolfreakwaca4328oh you're right 👍 Somehow I thought this was a separate option but it isn't
When you meet a vehicle from 2001 with lightbulbs, it is like getting a small peaceful vacation. With these lights you are lucky if you manage to read any reflective roadsign the two seconds you get for that matter just when passing the sign. But hey, the transformation into being a robot was never easy.
It is not very efficient (slow) and the car is very noisy… i am not impress in comparison with others!
It’s works plus/minus, but not more
Why you don’t test lucid air the matrix light
What annoys me about these headlights is that they shut off a pretty big cone infront of you basically turning the entire road infront of you pitch black and the cone tends to not allign with the car infront properly aswell causing it to sometimes blind them in bends. It also refuses to enable at early dawn or late dusk and it has to be basically pitch black for it to start working but at the same time always auto enables inside cities for whatever reason which is illegal in my country and can me get fined. It also doesn't seem to recognise pedestrians or cyclists even if they have reflective vests on. These are all things they can hopefully improve with software updates in the future though. It's certainly a lot better than not having it, don't get me wrong, but it's worlds behind from what you get on something like an VW ID3 or Audi Q4 e-tron.
So nice, yeah, but it‘s so loud inside! Light nice, sound is bad.
@bjornnyland wasnt the (source of) difference between the Y and Highland the dry vs wet road? or did You try the Highland in dry enviroment also?
I drive a Highland now and it has significantly less output than the Model Y and old Model 3.
The thing I hate is that the right side of the low beam is higher than the left side, which blinds on coming traffic in right turns.
Bjorn,
Reviens vite faire des vidéos sur tesla….!
Ça fait longtemps que tu n’as pas fait de vidéo…
Tu as oublié les nombreuses mises à jours !!
😅
I do wish the high beam turned off completely under street lights and for bright reflective signs
@@Dan4096 they actually have to by law in some countries. At least in town . And they don't do that . That needs to be fixed
I agree! It's super annoying having to turn the adaptive headlights off all the time for this. My 2017 Audi A5 was doing this without any issues (no matrix lights - just adaptive high beams). This is in Germany where you're not allowed to use high beams in built-up areas...
@@choban656 same here in Denmark . All my earlier cars did it . German cars and 2 Renaults . But my model 3 doesn't
We need to meet, Bjørn. I will be moving to Horten soon.
Creeper
@@jamesofallthings3684 what ? What do you mean, dude. I make EV reviews as well and would like to meet someone who lives nearby and has similar interests.
There is no place for such comments.
@jamesofallthings3684 This is an open chat.
Lurking around someone's house or stream sniping is worse, imho.
Hello Björn.
Which car is better in yor opinion model 3 or iD3?
Wich one would you chose?
Can not compare... M3 way better.
Model 3
@@BalintGulyas Not true for the facelift. I currently own a 2022 Model 3 and I definitely would choose it over an ID3. But the new facelift completely destroyed the car. Tesla had the perfect balance between touch screen control and physical buttons... I don't know why they messed it up...
@@lukasweishaupt2708 Lukas...M3=Tesla no question that's better than id3....
@@BalintGulyas No signal stalks alone is a deal breaker for so many people. At our Tesla meeting yesterday we had one guy who recently "upgraded" his Model 3 to the new one. He hates it. Indicating in roundabouts is almost impossible, turning on and off auto high beam is super annoying and the gear selector is just a joke. The new suspension is cool though.
With the new facelift of the Model 3 being a massive downgrade and the facelift of the ID3 being a massive upgrade (especially from a software perspective), I'm not sure which car I would choose. Probably the ID3.
The only good thing about this is, that my car's resale value just got way better. I already have the Ryzen CPU, but still got the "old" 325HP RWD motor in combination with the "new" 60kWh battery.
Hopefully Tesla learns from this mistake. Maybe there will be a second steering wheel with stalks as an option, just like they did with the Model S.
❤❤❤
People should always turn off their high beams when meeting traffic because this automated c*** still blinds way to much. It has gotten better but not good enough.
A powerful ledbar is also required to have propper driving lights even on new cars.
I always wonder how car manufacturers can spend thousands and thousands dollars on headlight and "light technologies" when a 300 dollar ledbar are always outperforming them by a lot...
Sounds like you need glasses when driving. That would explain if you are overly irritated by lights.
@@christianolsen9781 nah, people just have really bad adjusted lights and the early Tesla model 3s are some of the worst
