The Tesla weather features get an exciting upgrade with the latest Holiday Update 2024. From now on, detailed weather data will be displayed at your destination and even a rain or snow radar is integrated. This will help you Tesla, you even better prepared for all weather conditions when you're out and about - regardless of whether you're taking a short trip around town or planning a longer journey.
Detailed weather information directly at your destination
The new update not only shows you the current weather conditions at your location, but also provides information about the weather at your destination.
- When entering a navigation, you will see the expected weather at your destination directly below the arrival time.
- A tap on this display opens a detailed pop-up with comprehensive weather data such as temperature, probability of precipitation and air quality.
- On long journeys, the system even takes your estimated arrival time into account and adjusts the weather forecast accordingly.
If the weather at your destination differs significantly from the current conditions - for example, if you set off in sunshine but rain or snow awaits you at your destination - the system displays this information visibly above the estimated arrival time. You can also use voice commands such as "What's the weather like?" to call up the weather pop-up on the fly.
Weather radar in the vehicle display
Another highlight is the new weather radar overlay. With a simple tap on the weather icon in the map menu, you get:
- A radar view showing an animated display of precipitation areas over the last three hours.
- The option to pause the radar to see more precisely where rain or snow fronts are moving.
- Access to the weather data at any zoom level to check the weather over a large area or at specific points.
The radar overlay hides other POIs (points of interest) so that you can concentrate fully on the weather conditions.
Requirements for the new weather functions
To enjoy the new Tesla weather features you need premium connectivity. Unfortunately, a Wi-Fi or hotspot connection is not enough to access the comprehensive data. The information comes from The Weather Channel.
All current vehicle models are supported except older ones Model S and Model X (model years before 2021). The weather radar also requires an AMD Ryzen-based on-board computer, as used in newer models of the Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model Y as well as the modern Model S and Model X is installed.
Conclusion and outlook
The 2024 Holiday Update raises the Tesla weather features to a new level. Drivers benefit from detailed forecasts, an integrated radar and intuitive handling. Thanks to these practical innovations, future journeys can be planned in an even more relaxed, safe and comfortable way.
