We need to admit that Tesla is one company with a mission to save the earth and at the same time, is providing us with the most luxurious fleet of cars. The cars are super comfy, luxurious and autonomous. What else can be better than that? But in order to keep customers interested in those automotive, the company is constantly working on improving its services.
For the same purpose, the company announced a new software upgrade for the Tesla cars on Thursday. The company has got new features and entertainment services like in-car “Car-aoke” (karaoke), Spotify Premium, Netflix, YouTube, and Hulu, to its version 10 in-car software. The karaoke feature will offer a multi-lingual songs collection for the user. Though the entertainment features added to the Tesla software are for the drivers, these can only be accessed when the cars are parked; obviously for the safety purpose.

Another feature that the company has rolled out with the upgrade is that now the car owners can summon the car when it’s in their line-of-sight, that too, without a driver. Yes exactly like you would do to your pet. It means, if a car is parked in a parking lot, the owners will command it to come out of the parking and pick them up. According to the company, the feature will perfectly work for the ones who have purchased the fully-automatic Tesla cars.
“It’s the perfect feature to use if you have an overflowing shopping cart, are dealing with a fussy child, or simply don’t want to walk to your car through the rain. Though the customers who use the feature must remain responsible for the car and monitor it, and its surroundings, at all times,” stated Tesla in a blog post.
The feature is already out for the Tesla Model S, Model X, and Model 3 owners. The ones who have got the fully autonomous self-driving cars will be the ones getting the feature first. The customers will get a notification to update their software, and they, then after updating it, can enjoy the new features.
According to the company, there will be some other features, too, arriving for the Tesla cars in the coming week, that are built specifically to make improvements to the current software. The company also admitted that these software updates are the largest updates to the software to date. In fact, Tesla shares’ prices also jumped by 6%, after the upgrades were announced on Thursday.
According to an email from Elon Musk, the company is ready to deliver 100000 cars by the end of the third quarter of this year, which can make a record. Though the company has already made a record by selling 95000 cars in three months ending in June.
