Tesla firmware 2021.36.5.1 with a number of additions: preparation for winter, current control from the application [TABLE] • CARS

Software 2021.36.5.x, which got to Tesla owners, had several new features for preparing cars for winter, and Model Y owners got the perpendicular parking feature. The most surprising modification is the refinement of the airbag mode.

Tesla Software 2021.36.5.x - what's new

The software description states that version 2021.36.x contains changes in the automatic parking mechanism, low temperature modifications, improved airbag control system and air purification mode "Biological weapon / Biological weapon" [Tesle with HEPA filter]. Automatic parking detects empty spaces using cameras, although so far this function is only available to owners of Y models:

Improvements at low temperatures They consist in adjusting the operation of the washers, heating in the passenger compartment and better preparing the battery for charging, if in the navigation we chose the route through / to the supercharger (source). Our Reader also noticed a suggestion (hint) "use navigation before next visit to Supercharger" [paraphrase]. Implicitly: the machine would like to know what we are planning to rechargebecause that will help her prepare for it. We are not sure if the latest notice is new or if it came earlier.

It is important to be able to control the charging rate (current) at the application level. The driver of the car can then select the level to which the battery should replenish energy (this was the case before) and select the load on the installation. However, this only applies to charging with alternating current, AC. With constant current, the vehicle and the charger match the voltage and current.

Perhaps the most impressive of them airbag changesTesla noticed that real side collisions look a little different from the NCAP / NHTSA tests [and are they more often than not collisions with other cars, not with poles?]. This is why the operating mode of the cushions and belts has been changed to protect the driver and passengers better than before. CleanTechnica wrote a lot about this, let's try to delve into the topic 🙂

Firmware 2021.36.5.x was received by our Pyo_trek Reader with Tesla Model 3 SR +, other talking Readers still have firmware 2021.32.x.
