Here are the key highlights of the update:
1. ADAS & Driving Improvements
- AI-Based Lane Control: Pilot Assist now uses a new AI-based method for lateral control. Instead of simply sticking to the center of the lane, it follows a more natural drive path, handling road curves more smoothly.
- Adaptive Speed Limit: You can now enable a function that allows the car to suggest speed limit adjustments based on road signs, which you can accept or reject.
- Speed Limit Increases: * Pilot Assist now works at speeds up to 150 km/h (93 mph).
- Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) now works up to 180 km/h (112 mph).
- Lane Change Assist Memory: The system now saves your preferred setting (On/Off) between driving cycles so you don’t have to reactivate it every time.
- Stop & Go Refinement: Assisted driving now automatically cancels after 10 seconds at a complete standstill to ensure driver presence.
2. Climate & Comfort
- Cold Air Bug Fix: Addresses a sporadic issue where the climate system would blow cold air unexpectedly.
- Steering Wheel Heat: Fixed a bug where the automatic steering wheel heater failed to trigger in cold climates (should activate below 10°C / 50°F).
- Preconditioning: Battery pre-conditioning is now more dynamic, starting earlier and reaching higher temperatures to optimize DC fast charging.
- Interior Communication: A new feature amplifies the voices of front occupants through the rear speakers so they can be heard more easily by passengers in the back.
3. Infotainment & Connectivity
- Apple CarPlay Fixes: Improved stability for wired iPhone connections and a specific fix for Siri being interrupted while reading or replying to texts.
- Apple Watch Digital Key: Shared keys for Apple Watch are now correctly identified with a watch icon instead of a phone icon in the settings menu.
- Google Maps Energy Estimation: Now uses dynamic consumption data rather than static profiles to provide a more accurate State of Charge (SoC) upon arrival.
4. General Bug Fixes
- Steering Vibration: Resolved an issue where the steering wheel would vibrate during low-speed maneuvers.
- Dark Mode: Fixed a bug where Google Maps would incorrectly start in dark mode during the day.
- Lighting Logic: Headlights now turn off immediately when the driver’s door is opened if the vehicle transitions to inactive mode.
- Tailgate: Fixed an issue where the tailgate would stop mid-opening if the sensors detected motion from passengers exiting the vehicle.
