2024.44.25.2 Just Dropped Game Changer or Minor Tweak?
So, 2024.44.25.2 is hitting Teslas worldwide, and it’s packed. Apple Watch as a key, SiriusXM integration, and Auto Shift Beta expanding to Drive and Reverse pretty substantial additions. But the real question is, how impactful are these changes? Will Apple Watch key become the norm, or will we stick with our phones and key cards? Is SiriusXM worth the Premium Connectivity subscription for those who don’t already have it? And is Auto Shift Beta truly ready for prime time, or is it still too early to trust?
Beyond the headliners, this update introduces some intriguing quality-of-life improvements. Weather at destination, search along route, and Set Arrival Energy seem genuinely useful for road trips. But what about the redesigned charging pins? Helpful tweak or unnecessary visual clutter? The Dashcam viewer speed adjustments are welcome, but I wonder how many will actually use the 0.5x or 2x speeds. What undocumented gems are hiding beneath the surface? I'm sure someone will uncover more soon.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this update is what it tells us about Tesla's direction. The focus on in-car entertainment with the Theater updates and new games suggests they are doubling down on the Tesla as a mobile entertainment platform. Is this a distraction from core driving features, or a smart move to enhance the overall ownership experience? The addition of maintenance summaries seems like a small detail, but could signal a shift towards greater service transparency. What other areas could Tesla improve with similar data-driven approaches?
Finally, with FSD 12.5.4.2 included, the conversation inevitably turns to autonomous driving. Are we seeing meaningful progress towards full self-driving, or are these incremental updates failing to deliver on the promise? I predict that the next major FSD update will be the true turning point, but I’m open to being proven wrong. Let the discussion begin. What are your thoughts on 2024.44.25.2? What features excite you most, and what are you still waiting for?
