TESLA'S HUGE SUMMER UPDATE! NEW HIDDEN FEATURES!

EV Channels Review

This video provides an extensive overview of "hidden" features and Easter eggs within Tesla vehicles, focusing on those introduced or enhanced by recent software updates, particularly for the 2025 model year. The reviewer highlights a range of functionalities, from the surprisingly ineffective active noise cancellation and the ambiguous software update settings to practical additions like the Tesla diner integration with food ordering and movie showtimes. The return of Disney Plus via the browser and the "Better Theater" website for expanded streaming options are noted. Practical features such as Sentry Pro for enhanced security alerts, advanced HVAC controls including independent passenger-side adjustments and a new "swing mode" on the Model Y, and customizable scroll wheel functions are demonstrated. The video also covers the automatic frunk/trunk opening (with caveats on reliability), location-based trunk height memory, customizable lock sounds, calendar syncing for navigation, live weather overlays, third-party charging station visibility, and trip planning via the Tesla app. Finally, it touches upon new ambient lighting modes (sync and rave), the auto turn signal cancel feature (though its disappearance is noted), automatic shifting, sending directions from phone to car, managing media sources, energy app insights, and rear-seat screen controls with Bluetooth connectivity. While many features are presented as universally applicable, some are noted as specific to newer models or certain vehicle types (e.g., S/X, Model Y Juniper).
