Other features include the ability to turn on Bioweapon Defense Mode and Cabin Overheat Protection directly from the app.
Tesla has even added the ability to manage when your vehicle charges by letting you adjust Scheduled Departure and Scheduled Charging times right in the app.
Needless to say, the app has been completely transformed in just a few months and app updates have become just as exciting as car updates.
Historical Charging Statistics
In version 4.4 of the app, Tesla added the ability to view how many miles or kWhs your car has charged in a recent charging session.
Tesla app now shows you how much you have charged
According to Tesmanian, Tesla will further expand the charging statistics they show, allowing you to view a detailed history of how much your car was charged.
The app update is currently being tested by employees and is expected to become available in the near future.
The app will allow you to view a day-by-day breakdown of how much you charged your car. It appears that it will also show you where you charged your car, whether you charged it at home, a Supercharger or other location.
Besides giving owners more transparency into how much energy their Tesla is using, charging data is also helpful for any owners who use their car to run a business.
This new historical data does not appear to be tied to a Powerwall and it will likely become available for all owners.
Hopefully Tesla keeps historical data beyond the current month or allows owners to export their data.
The current Tesla app already shows you how many kWhs were used to charge the car during the last charging session, so we don’t expect this app update to require newer car firmware like some other app updates have recently.
Since this feature is already being tested by employees we expect it to be released to everyone soon.
Tesla will now reroute you to less busy Superchargers

If you don't have enough range to reach your destination, Tesla’s in-car navigation system will automatically calculate where you should stop in order to charge.
If the Supercharger you’re set to arrive at is suddenly too busy, Tesla's navigation will now reroute you to another Supercharger location that's within range.
According to a recent tweet by @cybrtrkguy, which shows a picture of their trip planner and the message, “Rerouting to a less busy Supercharger” in Sheffield, Ohio.

Tesla drivers will now know when a Supercharge station is congested and will have the option to change their route to reduce their total travel time.
Not only does Tesla know exactly how many vehicles are charging at each location. It also knows the charge level of each vehicle and it could estimate the wait time for a Supercharger based on how many Teslas are nearby with a low state of charge.
Based on all of this information Tesla can come up with great suggestions on the best place to charge to reduce your overall trip time.
Tesla’s Supercharger rerouting feature will be useful, especially as Tesla starts opening its Supercharger sites to non-Tesla vehicles.
Tesla recently chose to open up the Supercharger network to other car brands, which could add additional Supercharger congestion.
With over 30,000 Superchargers (3,500 stations) reported at the end of 2021, Tesla undoubtedly operates the largest and most successful fast-charging networks.
While Tesla plans to solve Supercharger congestion by tripling the size of its network in the next few years, this new navigation feature will certainly help alleviate some Supercharger congestion.
Tesla Model 3 is in the Top 10 best selling cars of 2021
Tesla’s Model 3 has landed a spot as the ninth best-selling car in the world for 2021, which is up 40% from 2020, according to Fiat Group World. The Model 3 accounted for 508,000 unit sales in 2021.
According to the data provided by Fiat Group World, the Toyota RAV4/Wildlander came in at number one, which is up from the second spot in 2020. The Ford F-150 pickup truck landed at number seven, down from the number 6 spot in 2020.
Toyota and Honda have four vehicles in the top 11 spots, while Nissan, Ford, and Tesla only have one spot.
Fiat Group World notes that the Tesla Model 3 continues to rise within the list and is expected to rank in the top five by the end of this year.
Additionally, the author adds that the Model Y is expected to outsell the Model 3 by the end of 2022, which means both the Model 3 and Model Y would both sit in the top five spots. The Model Y currently sits at the 19th spot on the list, which means the Model Y accounted for 392,000 sales in 2021. It rose from the 262nd spot, or 412%, from 2020.
It’s worth noting that the Model Y began its deliveries in 2020, which explains the significant jump in 2021. Earlier this year, it won U.S. News’ Best Luxury Electric SUV award.
Of the 110 vehicles included, the Model S and Model X did not make the cut. This is most likely due to their higher price tag.
With this data available and Fiat Group World’s insights, it’s entirely possible for the Model Y to overtake the Model 3 this year. And with Tesla constantly adding new features and bringing back ‘Enhanced Autopilot,’ consumers will likely jump on-board.
Tesla is currently battling global supply chain restraints, and Musk said at Bloomberg’s Qatar Economic Forum that these restraints are a bigger issue than competition from other competitive automakers.
“Our constraints are much. More in raw materials and being able to scale up productions,” Musk says.
