TESLA'S HUGE SUMMER UPDATE IS HERE! NEW 2025 FEATURES!

EV Channels Review

Tesla's 2025 Summer Update (version 2025.26) introduces several new features, with the most significant being the integration of Grok AI. This update also brings enhanced Supercharger information, automatic charge port unlocking, and improved dashcam viewer capabilities with faster scrubbing and zoom. For newer Model Y vehicles, a toggle between standard and wider camera views is now available, and the blind spot camera can remain active alongside other camera views. A notable limitation is that Grok and some other advanced features, including the new dashcam viewer, are restricted to Teslas with AMD processors, excluding older models with Intel chips. The update also includes RGB ambient lighting that syncs with music and the ability to save audio presets. While the inclusion of Grok is heavily promoted as a differentiator, its current functionality is limited to a virtual assistant role, though future integration with vehicle controls is anticipated. The reviewer highlights Sentry Pro as a crucial third-party solution for enhanced vehicle security, offering features like remote horn honking and light flashing, which are seen as more effective deterrents than the update's native red ambient lighting for Sentry Mode.
