「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」會智慧地建議車道變換以協助您持續行駛於規劃路線,此外還會做出調整,讓您不會受到慢車或卡車的阻擋而妨礙行駛速度。

透過前往「控制」>「Autopilot 自動輔助駕駛」並先啟用「自動輔助轉向」,即可啟用「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」。對於可使用該功能的每條路線,您可透過按下「導航轉向清單」中的「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」按鈕來選擇是啟用還是停用該功能。

針對路線啟用該功能後,您可在有出入管制的路段中,透過朝您所在方向快速將巡航控制桿兩次下移至底部來啟動「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」。啟動時,藍色路線代表即將行駛的路線,可協助您保持車輛行駛在規劃的車道內。灰色路線可能顯示,以根據路線指示接下來的車道變換,或建議您把握機會移向可更快速行駛的車道。啟用時,「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」也會根據目的地引導您的車輛駛向公路交流道或出口。

調整「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」進行車道變換的積極程度,以保持您的車輛維持在設定的速度,具體方法是變更「依車速變換車道」設定,此設定位於「控制」>「Autopilot 自動輔助駕駛」>「自訂 Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」中。

注意: 啟用此功能前,您需要進行攝影機校正,並且需透過 WiFi 下載最近版本的導航地圖。

AutoPilot HW 2 or Higher
Smart Summon

「增強召喚」是停車輔助功能,有助於您引導車輛駛向您或選擇的目的地,具體方法是在停車空間中導航,並且繞過需閃避的物體。此功能非常適合將車輛停入狹窄的停車空間、導引車輛順利穿過水坑,或者協助可能攜帶日常物品走向車輛的駕駛人。當您的車輛在 150 英尺範圍內偵測到手機時,「增強召喚」可與您的 Tesla 行動應用程式搭配使用。

若要使用「增強召喚」,請開啟 Tesla 行動應用程式。點選「召喚」,然後選擇位於車輛圖形中間的「增強召喚」圖示。若要啟動「增強召喚」,請按住「幫我尋找」按鈕,或者在所選目的地放置一個圖釘,然後按住「開始」按鈕。您隨時可以放開按鈕來停止車輛。

「增強召喚」還能夠和 HomeLink 整合,可開啟車庫門以將車輛駛出車庫。與「召喚」功能類似,「增強召喚」僅適用於停車空間或車道,而非公共道路。此功能為測試版,您必須全程監視車輛行駛及周圍環境。

注意: 若要使用「增強召喚」,請下載最新版 Tesla 行動應用程式 (3.8.2 或更高版本),在您的裝置上啟用 GPS 並確保您擁有手機服務。「增強召喚」可能需要其他攝影機校正,且僅在駕駛人與車輛同時位於螢幕顯示的藍色圓圈內時才會運作。

「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」現在可直接進行車道變換,不需要駕駛人確認建議的車道變換。若要關閉車道變換確認,請前往「控制」>「Autopilot 自動輔助駕駛」>「自訂 Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」>「需要變換車道確認」,然後設為「開啟」。在關閉車道變換確認的情況下,您還可透過調整「車道變換通知」來調整偏好的通知方式。

在此版本中,您也可以在每次于可使用此功能的路線上行駛車輛時,透過將「在每次旅程開始時啟用」設為「是」來啟用「Autopilot 自動輔助導航駕駛」。

注意: 關閉車道變換確認之後,只有在已確認駕駛人的手緊握方向盤時才會變換車道。停用車道變換確認並不會減輕駕駛人對於雙手保持握住方向盤、隨時保持警惕和小心監控車輛周遭情況的責任。

「守衛模式」會在您車輛上鎖與停車時持續監控週遭環境。啟用此功能時,車輛會自動進入「待命」狀態並對攝影機和感測器持續供電,以偵測潛在威脅並觸發適當反應狀態: 警戒或警報。若要啟用「守衛模式」,請前往「控制」>「安全與保全」>「守衛模式」。

若偵測到輕微威脅,例如有人倚靠在您的車輛上,「守衛模式」會切換為「警戒」狀態,並在觸控螢幕上顯示訊息,表示攝影機正在錄影。

對於如破窗而入等重大威脅事件,「守衛模式」會切換為「警報」狀態。在此狀態中,車輛警報會啟動,音效系統會發出巨大且突發的聲音,觸控螢幕上的訊息會增加至最高亮度,您也會在行動應用程式上收到通知。

若要儲存在處於「守衛模式」時擷取的影片,您需事先將已格式化的USB 隨身碟插入其中一個 USB 連接埠。「守衛模式」需要電池電量達 20% 以上才可運作。若您的電池電量在此功能啟用時低於 20%,「守衛模式」會關閉,且您會在行動應用程式上收到通知。

請注意,「守衛模式」的設計是為了加強車輛安全性,但並非用於防範所有潛在威脅。

行車記錄器

行車記錄器現在除了窄型視角前視攝影機外,還可以錄影並儲存車輛側邊攝影機擷取的影像片段。與往常一樣,行車記錄器會顯示在狀態列中並以紅點代表正在錄影。輕點圖示可儲存 10 分鐘的影片或按住以停止錄影。

注意:請檢視當地法規,瞭解是否有寵物不得留在無人車內的限制。

Tesla's connectivity icon is now always displayed in the status bar to give you instant access to the vehicle's signal strength.

Prior to this update, the cellular connection icon was only displayed if there was low or no coverage, or if you went into the main Controls menu.

The vehicle's turn signal icons are now easier to see at a glance. Instead of the arrow being inside of a circle, the new turn signals are now simple arrows, which better matches other vehicles.

There is a new WiFi menu that makes it easier to connect your vehicle to WiFi. The new menu can be found under Controls > WLAN (WiFi).

The updated menu replaces the old dialog box that appeared when you tapped the WiFi icon at the top of the Controls menu.

The status icons at the top of the screen are still present to let you quickly view whether the vehicle is connected to WiFi and its signal strength.

New Bluetooth Menu

Similar to WiFi, the Bluetooth menu is now located under Controls > Bluetooth, instead of an overlay on the screen.

To make additional room for the additional WiFi and Bluetooth options in the left column, you can now scroll the column vertically, with WiFi, Bluetooth and Upgrades being the last options.

The Bluetooth icon will also remain at the top of the screen to quickly let you know whether any Bluetooth devices are conneced.
