Agree that FSD must go with owner not the vehicle. Maybe after 10 years they could add an update fee but having to buy it all over again, especially since it’s never really worked is unfair.
Ridiculous that birds eye view can only be add with FSD... Tesla is becoming incredible annoying and frustrating. A lot of other cars have it stock. And is very handy.
Only things I'd want might be bird's eye view, a CCS adapter, more service, and the rear cross traffic system. I absolutely think FSD should follow the owner. It's too expensive of an item.
Ventilated seats is one big feature I miss. Specially useful on hot days when I am back from my game and ventilated seats helped me in my KIA to keep me cool and not stink the car seats,
Rear cross traffic monitor should be added immediately. My wife’s Honda CR-V has it and it is a 2017. It is ridiculous that Tesla does not have it. Teslas are supposed to be safe but without this feature it is lacking. It should be a simple software update.
duct tape a 2 foot long stick to the front of your car hanging down a few inches above the pavement. When you run into one of those concrete blocks the stick will move forward and warn you of the problem.
@@robertn915 I mostly do but there are quite a lot of parkings that are really difficult to reverse park, like at the grocery store near me all the stalls are angled at a 45 which makes it super easy to pull straight in but almost impossible to reverse in.
I want LARGER FONTS! Is everybody 20 years old? I wear bifocals and have to lean over putting my head down low to read the damn display. I do believe that computer technology exists to implement LARGER TEXT on a display. Really. One size does not fit all.
Please add front camera access while parking. The sensor only detects objects in front of the bumper, not objects under the bumper. Those are the ones we need to avoid while parking every day... That's the only time I miss my BMW lol
Amen. And I would like the display on the left side to show the car directly behind me. When somebody tailgates it's a dangerous situation that I should be aware of. But Tesla doesn't show a damn thing behind me. And when Tesla eventually provides a bird's-eye view it should also show the car in the same lane behind.
Ryan, you've mentioned lot of nice features here. At the top of my list is the vehicle to home charging for backup power. This last winter we went through 62 hours without power and the EV was in the garage with a full battery!
if you are purchasing an EV and you don't do many miles, this would make an EV an easier purchase. powering your house during the day. powerwall is significantly smaller, so I don't see it being a problem with wear.
There many relatively simple UI enhancements that I would love to have. 1. Font size control. There is plenty of room for larger fonts. (what other devices lack font size adjustment?) 2. Alerts. Similar to the font issues Alerts pop in the lower left corner and are hard to read, especially when one should be looking out at the road. Larger and near the top of the screen (optionally) would be much safer. 3. Turn signal video. Similar to 2, the lower left corner is the worst location. My hand/arm blocks view the video and it could easily be much larger. The S has it in center lower screen area which is a little better. How about optional size and location? 4. At least on my 22 M3LR, there streaming (Slacker) service often has login issues that usually cannot resolve without stopping and later resuming another leg of the trip. 5. Today the FM radio was having real issues with a local station while not even moving. (I switched to radio only because of 4.) 6. It really sad the the console USB connections are power only.
An option to display the side camera either fullscreen or LARGE in the center of the display when the turn signal is activated is number one on my desires. I would pay a Grand for Auto Lane Change in a heartbeat. The lane change "warning" now implemented works well, to inform you that you have just sideswiped a car in the adjacent lane. That, and restore the "Chrome" trim as an option.
@@highasheaven9239 Guess you haven't met an over 50 Tesla owner. I'm 75. The black trim looks like crap on a red or blue car. On the white cars, black does snap. I don't go for the "stealth" silliness. I have silver 18" wheel covers, white handles and camera covers on my red and on my blue model 3s. Along with the white interior, they are gorgeous, day or night. Will get the window trim done this fall.
Amen. And I want to see cars behind me in the same lane. There are people who tailgate dangerously and I should be aware of them. The display does not show any vehicles while driving and the lane behind me. This is crazy.
Amen. I would like to see the car directly behind me in my lane. There are people who closely tailgate. This can be a dangerous situation that the driver needs to be aware of. But the display does not show any following vehicles. And the model Y rear view mirror is practically useless especially when it's dark. Pathetic.
I really agree with your list! My Ford Escape has sideways oncoming traffic alarm and it's really saved my butt a lot and i prefer the mirror indicators over on screen indicators because why look in two places? I'd rather forego all FSD technology and have all the features you mentioned.
A yes for ventilated seats and better suspension for sure - HUGE yes! The 360 view should not be part of AP or FSD. The hardware is there, they just need to update the software. This is a feature included on many, many cars that cost less than the Model Y and should be standard. It would be pretty sh*tty for them to add it only to packages costing $6K and $12K. The other thing I would like to see is the global headlights with projectors added to all Model Ys. They're included on all other Teslas at this point, including the less expensive Model 3, and now that adaptive headlights are finally legal in the US there's no reason not to include them.
Excellent set of features. The ones I want most are ventilated seats, blind spot indicators on the side mirrors, and a smoother suspension to keep my wife happy. An instrument binnacle in front of the driver would be a nice addition. Making stop light/ stop sign control (or at least a warning) standard would be a great safety feature. I wonder how many accidents would be avoided if the car would not run through a red light or stop sign?
Oh and give us the rear fog light that the rest of the world gets. The light is actually there (you can see it during a light show) so why not let us have it?
What I would like from Tesla is a hardware change maybe upcoming new model 3 and model Y perforated or cool seats even if it’s for the duel motors option I will be happily paying extra for it. Great video Ryan
@@stano49 If you have to have it installed, schedule a mobile visit so the tech can install it AND program it to your garage door for you. No extra cost to have a mobile visit vs. going to the service center.
They need to add SiriusXM to the model 3 and Y. I’m awaiting a M3 LR and the only think I’m not looking forward to is not having SiriusXM anymore. Although I know I can use Bluetooth on my phone, it’s going to be a pain to do that.
I’d just like the headlights to turn on automatically when the wipers are fully on. It’s the law to have your lights on when it’s raining in many states like California for example. Plus many brands already do this. Why can’t Tesla? I have written and suggested this dozens of times over the past few years. Nothing happens.
@@journeytheworld8848 yes but that’s not the law in many states and your rear lights are not on when DRL is on. It’s a simple fix. Turn on headlights when wipers are activated!
No cargo cover or adaptive matrix headlights on the model-X. They need to add these ASAP. this is their most expensive car, why add these to the model-y and not their top end SUV?
Ryan: Nicely done video and I really love the idea of the Heads Up Display. But I'd like to add a simple request that I think everyone will love....Full Screen When In Reverse.
Even if they can't do an up/down powered Frunk, they could do a simple update to a powered latch mechanism that allows users to close it lightly & the lock cinches it down into place. Lincolns & Cadillacs had rear trunk lids doing this back in the 90s and it's a pretty simple feature. Having to close your frunk 'in a special way' seems silly on a $60k+ car. Just drop the hood down & let the lock do the work to close it all the way. It's frustrating to hand wash your car, then get palm prints on the front because you can only close the frunk like you're pushing a child on a park swing.
The fronk latch is a joke. You have to push down evenly with both hands to latch it. Can't slam it. Can't push it down with one hand. It will break! It's been that way forever. Pathetic.
I push down on the emblem just like I was taught to do with my Porsche. I know it’s not “correct” for the Tesla but it works for me and I avoid fingerprints.
Would like to see more then 3 seconds on the lane change turn signal. 3 seconds is not enough time to see the side camera screen, when i look at it, it's gone already. I've had cars that have options 3,5 and 7 seconds Also ventilated seats would be great
Believe it or not I actually like the aftermarket roll-away cargo cover I purchased better than the hard, fold up Tesla offering. Much more versatile IMO and accomplishes the same thing.
Home charging would be ok but how many times would you really need that in an average year? What would be an amazing feature is vehicle to vehicle charging. If you run out of juice another tesla can lend you some range. Add an emergency beacon initiated by the driver and you can have a system that alerts nearby teslas to come to your rescue when you push that range limit a bit too far. Better than waiting on a tow truck...
That would be very helpful here in California. We have lots of power outages due to our year long fire season. Being able to keep some appliances on during multiple hour long outages would be amazing.
Eliminating the REFERRAL program; HUGE MISTAKE. i have sold 15 cars to friends who only bought because of me. They often require many hours of handholding after the purchase although for some this is zero. Elon thanks his employees and suppliers but never thanks his loyal followers who are 99% responsible for all Tesla sales. Even though getting a few superchargers miles as a gift is worth only $50 that very cheap to secure a sale. Give credit for Tesla store and hand out T-shirts saying “I sold 10 Teslas” or what ever but Tesla turning their backs on their loyal fans is irksome and unfair. Tesla must never forget they’re drinking from a well of sales created mostly by our word of mouth. I have personally given over 100 demo drives just because I believe in Tesla’s vision and purpose but feel snubbed and taken for granted. Don’t listen to bean counters who see referral as a waste of money but rather as Tesla’s future. Sure, Tesla has more sales than they can handle now but they will need customer support down the road so don’t burn that bridge!
A small feature that has been missed and maybe you can pass the info along to Elon for me. Lights on with wipers for when it’s raining hard. Living in Florida we have some heavy heavy rain at times and requires you to have your lights on when raining for visibility. That could be added quickly, please pass that along to Elon.
Folded in mirrors should automatically fold out when the car is reverse regardless of saved location. When I back out of my garage I have to manually unfold them and sometimes the car just folds them back in because I’m home. It’s really annoying. Reverse should override it and unfold them always.
What I'd like to see is the Model 3 getting the advanced features being lavished on the Model Y ... front & rear underbody castings ... structural battery pack ... good paint ... etc. As a sport sedan fan all this focus on the Y is kinda discouraging. No interest what ... so ... ever in CUV's, SUV's, whatever-you-vee's.
I wish the USB-C ports could support 100W PD and PPS charging or even the 240W standard. At the price these cars are going I would expect this as a minimum, especially since these are technology centered vehicles.
What would be great would be many more color options. And I mean some really bright colors, lemon yellow, lime green, bright blue, hot pink, etc. Tesla always says they are the safest cars. Well, a very easy to see, can't miss it, totally obvious car would probably not get hit as often as a dull, dark, "same as all the others" car.
I would like Tesla to stop using the ‘applying force on the steering wheel’ to “prove” you are in control of the car; it feels so counter-intuitive and unnatural to turn your steering wheel when going straight… a creative company like Tesla has to be able to come up with a better, safer and most important more comfortable and user friendly solution I would think.
Great improvements. In CA, lights are required when wipers are activated. Need this safety feature added or easy button or voice instruction. You can speak to open glovebox but not to turn on headlights!
1. Dear GOD I wish they would add a feature to select driver profile based who is in the driver seat as seen from the inside camera. If my wife and I get in the car together when I'm in the driving seat, it will sometimes select her seating profile so my legs get crushed as the seat move to her short-shit position. 2. An Audio book app integration. Such missed opportunity here. 3. On maps, please ping when approaching a speed camera. Most SatNavs have done this for a decade. 4. Also on maps, we need a way to report a map error. Particularly this would be useful when the maps have incorrect speed limit. I live near a main road where at a particular point the car suddenly drops to 40mph (from 70mph) for no good reason. It feels quite dangerous every time it happens and this has been going on for years. 5. SECOND the suggestion to offer lane change only for the AutoPilot 6. Auto indicators
You are so right, cars costing much less have way more to offer. I have an order in for a model Y but the more I read and hear about this car the more it gives me pause. The model Y was Every-mans car when it was cheaper. At this price it’s really lacking.
Would love to an instrument cluster on model 3 & y and hopefully its standard on all models going forward. If tesla had spend the money they used to make the yoke they could've used it for implementing the same instrument cluster on the x&s and just put it in on th 3 & y , tbh it would be been more cheaper to do that.
You can buy an adjustable stock from Amazon for $200. I've been tempted to get it from Amazon, it's been on my list for 4 months. But I don't know how to take the old one out reconnect the replacement without causing damage.
Yes! Birds eye view! What about off-peak charging only? i.e start AND end times for charging off peak (rather than having to configure start then guess end charge state / timings)
These are the features I’d like to see added to the 3/Y in no particular order: Day/date added to Time display Improve the turning radius to match European competition A wheel/tire package that is more resistant to curb rash Air suspension as an option An automatic zoom in feature on the navigation app so you can see complicated intersections and your path through it. More customizable supercharger options like choosing locations that are part of a service plaza, stoping before a major metro area, user ratings, availability of charging stalls for cars towing or bike rakes mounted in the rear.
1. Autosteer to reset after lane change, so you don’t need to press the control lever again. 2. Override for the ‘speed limit’ when using Autosteer, so it does not slow down when not needed. 3. Front camera at bumper level for use when manoeuvring, so I don’t run over my chickens! 4. Vehicle to Load, and Vehicle to Home, with automatic Grid-sensing.
Model Y hatch height adjusts based on location. At home in my garage I need it to open lower but not anywhere else. I want the full hight when not in my garage. Now it’s one setting and that’s it.
What about HomeLink? Its standard on all if not most cars. Many of the features you mentioned are standard with a $67K car, so why can't Tesla also do the same? I think its all about the margins!! As I have written before, now that people are willing to pay $66K for a MY, why would Tesla bring the price down and make less money on this model. They will eventually add another model which will be their opening price point car - perhaps $35K to $40K.
One simple change would make a world of difference…… bring back silver as a paint color. It’s one of the most popular car colors and Tesla offered it years ago…..Come on, this would be a no brainer for Tesla. If necessary, delete the least popular color (blue?) and replace it with silver. Who wouldn’t love that?
Tesla needs to include cargo tie-down straps in the Model Y. This is a safety feature that comes standard in almost all SUVs. Not being able to securely fasten cargo down makes them flying missiles in the event of an accident that can severely injure or kill people inside the vehicle. It's surprising that Tesla does not have this safety feature in all their vehicles.
With a software integration the distance of a vehicle in your blind spot in feet with the feet indicator, yellow or red depending how close it is. Right now the camera or image in the camera can be deceiving.
I just want them to add avoid highways for navigation. So simple. And yes Birdseye view and not just for fsd. If self driving drives itself it doesn’t need Birdseye view. What about CarPlay. Come on Elon. Don’t be so arrogant and play nice with Apple
@@michaelplewa7212 yes EXACTLY! tesla used to be the only game in town. I’m glad there are so many OTHER choices now. One huge advantage and selling point was their exclusive charging network. Now Elon wants to open it up. He should provide all owners with a ccs adapter now!
Bidirectional charging requires expensive home mounted equipment. A bare minimum should be that Tesla installs several 110v/20A outlets throughout the car. 1 or 2 in each of the passenger compartment, trunk, and frunk only make sense. An additional outlet on the outside, maybe under the charging port cover, would be useful also. It’s unreasonable to have all of this energy stored, but only be able to use it to propel the car. This addition would add a wide range of versatility, not the least of which would be to keep the fridge running and a couple of lights on during a blackout (with proper extension cords).
If only Tesla would add an auto wiper function that actually works! Sometimes I can barely see out the windshield due to rain and the wipers arent't wiping. At other times the camera sees bug splatter on a dry day and the wipers start working, mistaking the bug splatter for rain drops. Less expensive cars have auto wipers that work flawlessly. I've yet to meet a Tesla owner who isn't annoyed by the crappy auto wiper function, not to mention the danger or taking your eyes off the road to change manual wiper speeds. A semi passes and throws up water on the windshield, you need wipers immediately, and there's no stalk to change the setting emergently. This is dangerous!
Hi Ryan, great videos. I just took delivery of MYP end of June 2022. Suggestion, please make video of what Tesla cutbacks on. One example center console does not support Data, so I researched the replacement module from TSport, however, the M3 and MY after June 15th the data wiring harness has been removed... it would be good to know what Tesla is removing from vehicles.
I agree with most of your desired new features, but I am much more concerned with getting the existing features to work correctly. So many current "features" do not work reliably or at all and many are so distracting and / or inconvenient for the driver, that I would put an emphasis on fixing those before putting resources toward adding more things that don't work reasonably, reliably or in some cases at all. * The stupid poorly designed nonadjustable, unmovable head rest - placed so if you lean back into the seat for back support, the head rest forces your head forward tipping it down so you have a great view of your lap. My MY forces me to wear a back pack with a couple pair of jeans folded up in it to have decent back support and still see the road. * Seats that aren't cooled, ventilated or even perforated. They are like sitting on a plastic trash bag. Simply perforating them would help. I understand the trade off with range anxiety may prevent cooled seats, but surely that will be only a software update when the range wars taper off. * Safety priorities have made the car so paranoid it becomes unsafe. Even with all driver assistance "features" possible disabled, randomly slamming on the brakes at, blinking yellow caution lights, skid marks, shadows, heat mirages, etc., is dangerous even when the driver is expecting it. I'll grant that it keeps the driver on such a high alert nervous status that it might have some safety value from that standpoint. * Checking my safety score show I am regularly dinged for "following to close". This appears nearly every drive even though I have not followed another vehicle, met another vehicle or even seen another vehicle? It seems to recognize my garage wall as a truck that winks in and out of this dimension and throws up a yellow alert or red warning - maybe or perhaps it is related to the sudden braking at blinking yellow lights or other fantasies? * Randomly changing settings without warning or notification. e.g., chosen charge rate, or charge level, climate settings, entertainment settings, etc. * Randomly changing cruise control speed setting when it seems to incorrectly believe the speed limit has changed. Or fails to change when appropriate. * The existing features that useless as they are, but could be helpful, such as blind spot camera displayed on screen when turn signal enabled. Why place it in the worst possible spot on the display? Force you to hold the wheel at a precise pressure, then hide the camera view behind the steering wheel and your hand. * Passenger would like to look in glove box? Ask the driver to press a button and ask the car's permission to open the glove box, or change the display from what the driver is using and work through a menu to push the correct button. * And any of dozens of other similar poor choices or implementations.
To use the vehicle battery as additional storage would be great. We have solar roof and three powerwalls but the additional capacity would help if the grid outage happens during cloudy conditions. (Eg: hurricane)
I had a Fiat 500e, but I won't go back to an EV unless it can act as emergency power for the house. And ideally, be prepared for the mesh grid power systems on the way that allow all the EV's on the grid to supplement wind and solar, and get credits for it. This infrastructure change is the future, and it's essential to fully leverage the move from ICE to EV. CA spearheaded the move to cleaner emissions decades ago, and somebody needs to step up and require a modernized grid. Hopefully the first one through the door doesn't get too bloody.
Even with my reading glasses on I often have to squint at the exit number for quite a few seconds and then wind up guessing what it says. The font size is good for 30-year-olds for once you get over 60 those font sizes probably don’t work for anybody.
I think one mistake they made was not enough physical buttons (they really only need 4-8 more, GMC for example has way too many!). Even though it's 2022, the majority still likes the core car features to at least have a simple physical button with it. The super positive reviews from the IONIQ 5 and 6 are proving this to be truth.
We need tesla to make quality cars in 2023 and stop looting customers. Also stop making false promises for FSD. Anyone know is paying $14k for FSD does not know that current FSD hardware will NOT do FSD that regulators will approve.
Nice video as always but this unfortunately remains a letter to a Santa Claus who is blind and deaf...and will never come to a Tesla until Elon is there
I want the situation display on the left side of the screen to ALWAYS include cars directly BEHIND ME. There are people who tailgate and those that come up fast. The driver needs to be aware of this. But Tesla does not display anything at all from the rear in the display. And the crappy rear view mirror view on the model Y is crappy and hard to see. Please, show the car directly behind me.
The blind spot cameras displayed on the center screen offer little utility, and are distracting when driving at night (due to the directional signals flashing on and off). Blindspot mirrors (with the LEDs) are much more practical as most drivers intuitively are glancing toward the lane there moving to rather than towards the center console.
Stop buying profit making products and demand tesla to have those features in the car. HUD is a must for tesla as many vehicles cheaper than that include it.
In my opinion teslas should include the following as standard: ventilated seats, powered fronk, birdseye view, instrument cluster, and garage door opener. Considering the price increases these should be on all of their vehicles
@@jaegeratsea i just went to tesla shop and you have to pay 350 dollars for it to be on the model 3 and y, and then have to go to a service appointment to have it installed
I thought the headlights on the model white were adaptive matrix? I would buy an adaptive pneumatic suspension for my model Y if it was offered by Tesla. There is an aftermarket air suspension but Tesla rightfully has warranty confusion issues with it.
I agree with all of your features you would like to see added. I have a model 3 and I think ride quality could be greatly improved. Also they could do more for sound deadening. Cars at this price point typically ride smoother and quieter. I believe Elon is spending most of his time on improving manufacturing and not enough time on improving their cars quality.
Great job Ryan! The most important safety one for me right now, is moving all the little warning messages, and Blindspot view upon turn signal use, to upper left corner. The lower left corner is blocked by my right hand on the wheel. it's OK to cover up my speed information for a few seconds. Thanks for passing this info on to Elon. I'm not on Twitter.
Eeeh… the blind spot indicator is useless. Teslas have the king of that: the FSD visualization. You don't just get to see if something is in your blind spot, you can even see exactly where it is relative to your car, its speed relative to your car, and its shape.
I agree that the Blindspot indicator is useless. I tried it and turned it off. It’s more dangerous than not having it at all because for one thing it’s in the bottom corner which is partly obstructed by my hand. It should be at best superimposed at the top middle of the display because when your signal light is in use, nothing much else is all that important. Much better would be an omnipotent display that would show cars on all four sides. Right now it only shows cars in front. Cute but useless. I can see the cars in front but I can’t see the ones in the back.

Birds eye view camera please, or at least a front camera, I'm always worried about hitting the front of my MYP on those concrete parking barriers.
That's a good idea. I've scraped on the curb parking straight on.
duct tape a 2 foot long stick to the front of your car hanging down a few inches above the pavement. When you run into one of those concrete blocks the stick will move forward and warn you of the problem.
Why not reverse into the carpark? The camera comes on so you can see.

Amen. And I would like the display on the left side to show the car directly behind me. When somebody tailgates it's a dangerous situation that I should be aware of.
But Tesla doesn't show a damn thing behind me.
And when Tesla eventually provides a bird's-eye view it should also show the car in the same lane behind.
Ryan, you've mentioned lot of nice features here. At the top of my list is the vehicle to home charging for backup power. This last winter we went through 62 hours without power and the EV was in the garage with a full battery!
Agreed. Vehicle to home, like the Ford Lightning would be a major improvement.
Yea but then it’d lessen the odds even more of buying their battery pack made just for this sort of event 🙂
Just get a gas generator
if you are purchasing an EV and you don't do many miles, this would make an EV an easier purchase.
powering your house during the day.
powerwall is significantly smaller, so I don't see it being a problem with wear.
As far as I know the bidirectional charging hardware is already on our cars.... cmon software update!!
I have a fantastic heads up display in my 5 year old Audi. Its lack in a Tesla is one of the main stumbling blocks to consider switching.
Tesla software engineers should be able to give us a birds eye view using existing cameras.
Tesla’s EVs should be able to back up your home just like the F150. If you have Tesla Solar and or Powerwall’s. It should work seamlessly.

5. Today the FM radio was having real issues with a local station while not even moving. (I switched to radio only because of 4.)
6. It really sad the the console USB connections are power only.
Font size! Yes. Super easy, just do it. Much of it is marginally small for me in the day and completely unreadable at night.
Great suggestions!
An option to display the side camera either fullscreen or LARGE in the center of the display when the turn signal is activated is number one on my desires.
I would pay a Grand for Auto Lane Change in a heartbeat. The lane change "warning" now implemented works well, to inform you that you have just sideswiped a car in the adjacent lane.
That, and restore the "Chrome" trim as an option.
Agree with everything except the chrome, you're the first person I've seen that prefers chrome
@@highasheaven9239 Guess you haven't met an over 50 Tesla owner. I'm 75. The black trim looks like crap on a red or blue car. On the white cars, black does snap. I don't go for the "stealth" silliness. I have silver 18" wheel covers, white handles and camera covers on my red and on my blue model 3s. Along with the white interior, they are gorgeous, day or night. Will get the window trim done this fall.
360 camera + blind spot detection
Amen. And I want to see cars behind me in the same lane. There are people who tailgate dangerously and I should be aware of them. The display does not show any vehicles while driving and the lane behind me. This is crazy.
Amen. I would like to see the car directly behind me in my lane. There are people who closely tailgate. This can be a dangerous situation that the driver needs to be aware of.
But the display does not show any following vehicles.
And the model Y rear view mirror is practically useless especially when it's dark.
Pathetic.
I really agree with your list! My Ford Escape has sideways oncoming traffic alarm and it's really saved my butt a lot and i prefer the mirror indicators over on screen indicators because why look in two places? I'd rather forego all FSD technology and have all the features you mentioned.
A yes for ventilated seats and better suspension for sure - HUGE yes! The 360 view should not be part of AP or FSD. The hardware is there, they just need to update the software. This is a feature included on many, many cars that cost less than the Model Y and should be standard. It would be pretty sh*tty for them to add it only to packages costing $6K and $12K. The other thing I would like to see is the global headlights with projectors added to all Model Ys. They're included on all other Teslas at this point, including the less expensive Model 3, and now that adaptive headlights are finally legal in the US there's no reason not to include them.
Excellent set of features. The ones I want most are ventilated seats, blind spot indicators on the side mirrors, and a smoother suspension to keep my wife happy. An instrument binnacle in front of the driver would be a nice addition. Making stop light/ stop sign control (or at least a warning) standard would be a great safety feature. I wonder how many accidents would be avoided if the car would not run through a red light or stop sign?
I second this!
The blind spot indicator on the mirrors is a PLUS
Oh and give us the rear fog light that the rest of the world gets. The light is actually there (you can see it during a light show) so why not let us have it?
All the above plus a yoke steering wheel.
@@jbmcdoogle Rear fog light?
What I would like from Tesla is a hardware change maybe upcoming new model 3 and model Y perforated or cool seats even if it’s for the duel motors option I will be happily paying extra for it. Great video Ryan
Frustrating that the home link is an extra charge. The price has already increased a lot. This should be standard.
Many much cheaper cars have this feature.
Not only is it unacceptable to pay for HomeLink, Tesla makes you come back for a service appointment to get it installed. How nuts is that?
@@stano49 If you have to have it installed, schedule a mobile visit so the tech can install it AND program it to your garage door for you. No extra cost to have a mobile visit vs. going to the service center.
They need to add SiriusXM to the model 3 and Y. I’m awaiting a M3 LR and the only think I’m not looking forward to is not having SiriusXM anymore. Although I know I can use Bluetooth on my phone, it’s going to be a pain to do that.
My 2019 Chevy Equinox does a fantastic birds eye view and many others that are selectable. Not really a luxury car so should be easy.
I’d just like the headlights to turn on automatically when the wipers are fully on. It’s the law to have your lights on when it’s raining in many states like California for example. Plus many brands already do this. Why can’t Tesla? I have written and suggested this dozens of times over the past few years. Nothing happens.
The lights are on as running lights. No need to have full lights on unless visibility for the driver is an issue.
@@journeytheworld8848 yes but that’s not the law in many states and your rear lights are not on when DRL is on. It’s a simple fix. Turn on headlights when wipers are activated!
Honestly Tesla needs a feature tracker like Spotify. We shouldn’t have to rely on a tweet to get any indication of Tesla improvements from Elon.
Air suspension, proper heads-up display - MUST!
No cargo cover or adaptive matrix headlights on the model-X. They need to add these ASAP. this is their most expensive car, why add these to the model-y and not their top end SUV?
Ryan:
Nicely done video and I really love the idea of the Heads Up Display.
But I'd like to add a simple request that I think everyone will love....Full Screen When In Reverse.
The best new feature should be QUALITY CONTROL
Even if they can't do an up/down powered Frunk, they could do a simple update to a powered latch mechanism that allows users to close it lightly & the lock cinches it down into place. Lincolns & Cadillacs had rear trunk lids doing this back in the 90s and it's a pretty simple feature. Having to close your frunk 'in a special way' seems silly on a $60k+ car. Just drop the hood down & let the lock do the work to close it all the way. It's frustrating to hand wash your car, then get palm prints on the front because you can only close the frunk like you're pushing a child on a park swing.
The fronk latch is a joke. You have to push down evenly with both hands to latch it. Can't slam it. Can't push it down with one hand. It will break!
It's been that way forever. Pathetic.
I push down on the emblem just like I was taught to do with my Porsche. I know it’s not “correct” for the Tesla but it works for me and I avoid fingerprints.
Adaptive dampers for model 3/Y
Or just a non-adaptive luxury suspension option.
Would like to see more then 3 seconds on the lane change turn signal. 3 seconds is not enough time to see the side camera screen, when i look at it, it's gone already. I've had cars that have options 3,5 and 7 seconds
Also ventilated seats would be great
Believe it or not I actually like the aftermarket roll-away cargo cover I purchased better than the hard, fold up Tesla offering. Much more versatile IMO and accomplishes the same thing.
So which one did you get? Link?? Thanks!!
Home charging would be ok but how many times would you really need that in an average year? What would be an amazing feature is vehicle to vehicle charging. If you run out of juice another tesla can lend you some range. Add an emergency beacon initiated by the driver and you can have a system that alerts nearby teslas to come to your rescue when you push that range limit a bit too far. Better than waiting on a tow truck...
That would be very helpful here in California. We have lots of power outages due to our year long fire season. Being able to keep some appliances on during multiple hour long outages would be amazing.
Eliminating the REFERRAL program; HUGE MISTAKE. i have sold 15 cars to friends who only bought because of me. They often require many hours of handholding after the purchase although for some this is zero. Elon thanks his employees and suppliers but never thanks his loyal followers who are 99% responsible for all Tesla sales. Even though getting a few superchargers miles as a gift is worth only $50 that very cheap to secure a sale. Give credit for Tesla store and hand out T-shirts saying “I sold 10 Teslas” or what ever but Tesla turning their backs on their loyal fans is irksome and unfair. Tesla must never forget they’re drinking from a well of sales created mostly by our word of mouth. I have personally given over 100 demo drives just because I believe in Tesla’s vision and purpose but feel snubbed and taken for granted.
Don’t listen to bean counters who see referral as a waste of money but rather as Tesla’s future. Sure, Tesla has more sales than they can handle now but they will need customer support down the road so don’t burn that bridge!
A small feature that has been missed and maybe you can pass the info along to Elon for me. Lights on with wipers for when it’s raining hard. Living in Florida we have some heavy heavy rain at times and requires you to have your lights on when raining for visibility. That could be added quickly, please pass that along to Elon.
Folded in mirrors should automatically fold out when the car is reverse regardless of saved location. When I back out of my garage I have to manually unfold them and sometimes the car just folds them back in because I’m home. It’s really annoying. Reverse should override it and unfold them always.
Seeing requests for an instrument cluster in 3/Y. Seems a better idea is a HUD with speed and range. Everything else stays on the monitor.
What I'd like to see is the Model 3 getting the advanced features being lavished on the Model Y ... front & rear underbody castings ... structural battery pack ... good paint ... etc. As a sport sedan fan all this focus on the Y is kinda discouraging. No interest what ... so ... ever in CUV's, SUV's, whatever-you-vee's.
I wish the USB-C ports could support 100W PD and PPS charging or even the 240W standard. At the price these cars are going I would expect this as a minimum, especially since these are technology centered vehicles.
Adaptive suspension please
Lane change and stopping for red lights and stop signs. The car already recognizes them. This would be a great safety feature, Tesla!
What would be great would be many more color options. And I mean some really bright colors, lemon yellow, lime green, bright blue, hot pink, etc. Tesla always says they are the safest cars. Well, a very easy to see, can't miss it, totally obvious car would probably not get hit as often as a dull, dark, "same as all the others" car.
I would like Tesla to stop using the ‘applying force on the steering wheel’ to “prove” you are in control of the car; it feels so counter-intuitive and unnatural to turn your steering wheel when going straight… a creative company like Tesla has to be able to come up with a better, safer and most important more comfortable and user friendly solution I would think.
Watching this, I really don’t know why they’re behind on many things.
Great improvements. In CA, lights are required when wipers are activated. Need this safety feature added or easy button or voice instruction. You can speak to open glovebox but not to turn on headlights!
I'd also include voice-activated fog lamps!
1. Dear GOD I wish they would add a feature to select driver profile based who is in the driver seat as seen from the inside camera. If my wife and I get in the car together when I'm in the driving seat, it will sometimes select her seating profile so my legs get crushed as the seat move to her short-shit position.
2. An Audio book app integration. Such missed opportunity here.
3. On maps, please ping when approaching a speed camera. Most SatNavs have done this for a decade.
4. Also on maps, we need a way to report a map error. Particularly this would be useful when the maps have incorrect speed limit. I live near a main road where at a particular point the car suddenly drops to 40mph (from 70mph) for no good reason. It feels quite dangerous every time it happens and this has been going on for years.
5. SECOND the suggestion to offer lane change only for the AutoPilot
6. Auto indicators
Spare wheel... for the millionth time.
You are so right, cars costing much less have way more to offer. I have an order in for a model Y but the more I read and hear about this car the more it gives me pause.
The model Y was Every-mans car when it was cheaper. At this price it’s really lacking.
Would love to an instrument cluster on model 3 & y and hopefully its standard on all models going forward. If tesla had spend the money they used to make the yoke they could've used it for implementing the same instrument cluster on the x&s and just put it in on th 3 & y , tbh it would be been more cheaper to do that.
It's Kim Java installed an instrument cluster made by TSportline in their Y. It looks really nice and looks stock.
You can buy an adjustable stock from Amazon for $200. I've been tempted to get it from Amazon, it's been on my list for 4 months. But I don't know how to take the old one out reconnect the replacement without causing damage.
Coast stop option for winter time with iced road! This would help to keep control; especially here in Quebec
Yes! Birds eye view!
What about off-peak charging only? i.e start AND end times for charging off peak (rather than having to configure start then guess end charge state / timings)
These are the features I’d like to see added to the 3/Y in no particular order:
Day/date added to Time display
Improve the turning radius to match European competition
A wheel/tire package that is more resistant to curb rash
Air suspension as an option
An automatic zoom in feature on the navigation app so you can see complicated intersections and your path through it.
More customizable supercharger options like choosing locations that are part of a service plaza, stoping before a major metro area, user ratings, availability of charging stalls for cars towing or bike rakes mounted in the rear.
I’ve been driving for 15 years and have never curb rashed my rims. You need to open your eyes
1. Autosteer to reset after lane change, so you don’t need to press the control lever again.
2. Override for the ‘speed limit’ when using Autosteer, so it does not slow down when not needed.
3. Front camera at bumper level for use when manoeuvring, so I don’t run over my chickens!
4. Vehicle to Load, and Vehicle to Home, with automatic Grid-sensing.
Model Y hatch height adjusts based on location. At home in my garage I need it to open lower but not anywhere else. I want the full hight when not in my garage. Now it’s one setting and that’s it.
Heads up display would be my number one feature.
What about HomeLink? Its standard on all if not most cars. Many of the features you mentioned are standard with a $67K car, so why can't Tesla also do the same? I think its all about the margins!! As I have written before, now that people are willing to pay $66K for a MY, why would Tesla bring the price down and make less money on this model. They will eventually add another model which will be their opening price point car - perhaps $35K to $40K.
One simple change would make a world of difference…… bring back silver as a paint color. It’s one of the most popular car colors and Tesla offered it years ago…..Come on, this would be a no brainer for Tesla. If necessary, delete the least popular color (blue?) and replace it with silver. Who wouldn’t love that?
Tesla needs to include cargo tie-down straps in the Model Y. This is a safety feature that comes standard in almost all SUVs. Not being able to securely fasten cargo down makes them flying missiles in the event of an accident that can severely injure or kill people inside the vehicle. It's surprising that Tesla does not have this safety feature in all their vehicles.
I just want simple things. Auto headlights should come on if the windshield wipers are activated or if the car senses rain. Simple and easy to fix.
With a software integration the distance of a vehicle in your blind spot in feet with the feet indicator, yellow or red depending how close it is. Right now the camera or image in the camera can be deceiving.
Completely agree, specifically ventilated seats!
I just want them to add avoid highways for navigation. So simple. And yes Birdseye view and not just for fsd. If self driving drives itself it doesn’t need Birdseye view.
What about CarPlay. Come on Elon. Don’t be so arrogant and play nice with Apple
Yes! Avoid highways for navigation, birdseye view. These are features found on OLD cars.
@@michaelplewa7212 yes EXACTLY! tesla used to be the only game in town. I’m glad there are so many OTHER choices now. One huge advantage and selling point was their exclusive charging network. Now Elon wants to open it up. He should provide all owners with a ccs adapter now!
Bidirectional charging requires expensive home mounted equipment. A bare minimum should be that Tesla installs several 110v/20A outlets throughout the car. 1 or 2 in each of the passenger compartment, trunk, and frunk only make sense. An additional outlet on the outside, maybe under the charging port cover, would be useful also. It’s unreasonable to have all of this energy stored, but only be able to use it to propel the car. This addition would add a wide range of versatility, not the least of which would be to keep the fridge running and a couple of lights on during a blackout (with proper extension cords).
Wanted to use more of the fronk but its always a hassle, so endup always using the rear specially when hands are full
HUD is a must-have!!!
Am waiting for More range - - >400 miles for the Long Range version or as an option to add.
If only Tesla would add an auto wiper function that actually works! Sometimes I can barely see out the windshield due to rain and the wipers arent't wiping. At other times the camera sees bug splatter on a dry day and the wipers start working, mistaking the bug splatter for rain drops. Less expensive cars have auto wipers that work flawlessly. I've yet to meet a Tesla owner who isn't annoyed by the crappy auto wiper function, not to mention the danger or taking your eyes off the road to change manual wiper speeds. A semi passes and throws up water on the windshield, you need wipers immediately, and there's no stalk to change the setting emergently. This is dangerous!
Hi Ryan, great videos. I just took delivery of MYP end of June 2022. Suggestion, please make video of what Tesla cutbacks on. One example center console does not support Data, so I researched the replacement module from TSport, however, the M3 and MY after June 15th the data wiring harness has been removed... it would be good to know what Tesla is removing from vehicles.
Front camera for parking, the distance monitor doesn't notice a low kerb.
I agree with most of your desired new features, but I am much more concerned with getting the existing features to work correctly. So many current "features" do not work reliably or at all and many are so distracting and / or inconvenient for the driver, that I would put an emphasis on fixing those before putting resources toward adding more things that don't work reasonably, reliably or in some cases at all.
* The stupid poorly designed nonadjustable, unmovable head rest - placed so if you lean back into the seat for back support, the head rest forces your head forward tipping it down so you have a great view of your lap. My MY forces me to wear a back pack with a couple pair of jeans folded up in it to have decent back support and still see the road.
* Seats that aren't cooled, ventilated or even perforated. They are like sitting on a plastic trash bag. Simply perforating them would help. I understand the trade off with range anxiety may prevent cooled seats, but surely that will be only a software update when the range wars taper off.
* Safety priorities have made the car so paranoid it becomes unsafe. Even with all driver assistance "features" possible disabled, randomly slamming on the brakes at, blinking yellow caution lights, skid marks, shadows, heat mirages, etc., is dangerous even when the driver is expecting it. I'll grant that it keeps the driver on such a high alert nervous status that it might have some safety value from that standpoint.
* Checking my safety score show I am regularly dinged for "following to close". This appears nearly every drive even though I have not followed another vehicle, met another vehicle or even seen another vehicle? It seems to recognize my garage wall as a truck that winks in and out of this dimension and throws up a yellow alert or red warning - maybe or perhaps it is related to the sudden braking at blinking yellow lights or other fantasies?
* Randomly changing settings without warning or notification. e.g., chosen charge rate, or charge level, climate settings, entertainment settings, etc.
* Randomly changing cruise control speed setting when it seems to incorrectly believe the speed limit has changed. Or fails to change when appropriate.
* The existing features that useless as they are, but could be helpful, such as blind spot camera displayed on screen when turn signal enabled. Why place it in the worst possible spot on the display? Force you to hold the wheel at a precise pressure, then hide the camera view behind the steering wheel and your hand.
* Passenger would like to look in glove box? Ask the driver to press a button and ask the car's permission to open the glove box, or change the display from what the driver is using and work through a menu to push the correct button.
* And any of dozens of other similar poor choices or implementations.
A hud would be game changing. I miss my hud on my old 335i
To use the vehicle battery as additional storage would be great.
We have solar roof and three powerwalls but the additional capacity would help if the grid outage happens during cloudy conditions. (Eg: hurricane)
I agree I think tesla will keep their software in-house and I don’t see them adding support for CarPlay or android auto sadly
I had a Fiat 500e, but I won't go back to an EV unless it can act as emergency power for the house. And ideally, be prepared for the mesh grid power systems on the way that allow all the EV's on the grid to supplement wind and solar, and get credits for it. This infrastructure change is the future, and it's essential to fully leverage the move from ICE to EV. CA spearheaded the move to cleaner emissions decades ago, and somebody needs to step up and require a modernized grid. Hopefully the first one through the door doesn't get too bloody.
It would be nice to be able to purchase the cargo cover separately from Tesla.
Amazon has them for MY
Sure would like an addition to the user interface to allow larger fonts, or even Bold lettering for these aging short visioned challenged eyes !
Even with my reading glasses on I often have to squint at the exit number for quite a few seconds and then wind up guessing what it says. The font size is good for 30-year-olds for once you get over 60 those font sizes probably don’t work for anybody.
I think one mistake they made was not enough physical buttons (they really only need 4-8 more, GMC for example has way too many!). Even though it's 2022, the majority still likes the core car features to at least have a simple physical button with it.
The super positive reviews from the IONIQ 5 and 6 are proving this to be truth.
We need tesla to make quality cars in 2023 and stop looting customers. Also stop making false promises for FSD. Anyone know is paying $14k for FSD does not know that current FSD hardware will NOT do FSD that regulators will approve.
Nice video as always but this unfortunately remains a letter to a Santa Claus who is blind and deaf...and will never come to a Tesla until Elon is there
I want the situation display on the left side of the screen to ALWAYS include cars directly BEHIND ME.
There are people who tailgate and those that come up fast. The driver needs to be aware of this. But Tesla does not display anything at all from the rear in the display. And the crappy rear view mirror view on the model Y is crappy and hard to see.
Please, show the car directly behind me.
The blind spot cameras displayed on the center screen offer little utility, and are distracting when driving at night (due to the directional signals flashing on and off). Blindspot mirrors (with the LEDs) are much more practical as most drivers intuitively are glancing toward the lane there moving to rather than towards the center console.
Tesla needs grow up the services and software like grow up sales those last years …
Stop buying profit making products and demand tesla to have those features in the car. HUD is a must for tesla as many vehicles cheaper than that include it.
In my opinion teslas should include the following as standard: ventilated seats, powered fronk, birdseye view, instrument cluster, and garage door opener. Considering the price increases these should be on all of their vehicles
Does this mean there is no longer a proximity garage door function to the car? My 2014 and 2021 model S both had them.
@@jaegeratsea i just went to tesla shop and you have to pay 350 dollars for it to be on the model 3 and y, and then have to go to a service appointment to have it installed
Agree with your entire comment. Spot on.
I would pay $1,500 or so for auto lane change.
Two things I want in Tesla model Y. Adaptive height AIR suspension and Adaptive/matrix headlights. I want these standard.
I thought the headlights on the model white were adaptive matrix?
I would buy an adaptive pneumatic suspension for my model Y if it was offered by Tesla. There is an aftermarket air suspension but Tesla rightfully has warranty confusion issues with it.
@@colingenge9999 only performance Y gets the matrix lights
@@cyronader Thanks for the information. I have a model Y single motor on order and would be happy to pay for that option.
I agree with all of your features you would like to see added. I have a model 3 and I think ride quality could be greatly improved. Also they could do more for sound deadening. Cars at this price point typically ride smoother and quieter. I believe Elon is spending most of his time on improving manufacturing and not enough time on improving their cars quality.
My #1 - Way better, smoother suspension. Over anything else that could be thought of.
Woe 2k for auto lane change. We gotta stick together as consumers and stop paying these crazy prices.
All the businesses made common sense decisions. Contrast that with the idiotic Inflation Inflation Act.
Great job Ryan! The most important safety one for me right now, is moving all the little warning messages, and Blindspot view upon turn signal use, to upper left corner. The lower left corner is blocked by my right hand on the wheel. it's OK to cover up my speed information for a few seconds. Thanks for passing this info on to Elon. I'm not on Twitter.
Tesla needs Google map traffic ahead notifications. I want to see when the traffic is stopped ahead in red.
Lack of FSD transfer is a disgrace considering the cost for the value delivered.
Eeeh… the blind spot indicator is useless. Teslas have the king of that: the FSD visualization. You don't just get to see if something is in your blind spot, you can even see exactly where it is relative to your car, its speed relative to your car, and its shape.
I agree that the Blindspot indicator is useless. I tried it and turned it off. It’s more dangerous than not having it at all because for one thing it’s in the bottom corner which is partly obstructed by my hand. It should be at best superimposed at the top middle of the display because when your signal light is in use, nothing much else is all that important.
Much better would be an omnipotent display that would show cars on all four sides. Right now it only shows cars in front. Cute but useless. I can see the cars in front but I can’t see the ones in the back.
Half turn signal click 6 times instead of 3 flashes who agrees!!!
Excellent video Ryan! Agree with so many of these suggestions.
