EV Channels Review

Tesla Tom of Ludicrous Feed provides a comprehensive walkthrough of Tesla's software update 2023.12.1.1 for the 2023 Model Y RWD. The update introduces several user-friendly enhancements, including improved text size options for better readability, a highly anticipated controls search function for quicker settings access, and enriched Points of Interest data on the map with photos and reviews. Speed Assist now leverages cameras for more accurate speed limit detection, and phone call controls are integrated into the steering wheel. A significant addition is the scroll wheel customization, allowing users to assign various functions to the left scroll button. The 'Get to Know Your Tesla' feature within the manual app offers interactive guidance, and the addition of British English as a voice recognition language addresses regional accents. Gear chimes have also been implemented for gear shifts. Tom highlights the practical benefits of these updates, particularly the search function and text size improvements, while also testing the new features during a drive in Sydney. He also touches on the ongoing debate about the Model Y's suspension, concluding it's comfortable enough for daily use and road trips, and reiterates the financial sense of switching to EVs.
