Tesla is rolling out its 2025 Spring software update, bringing a mix of safety upgrades, convenience features, and entertainment tweaks to its lineup. The update will be available soon for eligible vehicles across Canada and the U.S.
Here’s a breakdown of what’s new:
Adaptive Headlights (US & Canada)
Headlights now adapt to oncoming traffic and cyclists by dimming only specific sections, letting you keep your high beams on more often.
Where to find it: Controls > Lights > Adaptive Headlights
Blind Spot Camera on Driver Screen (New Model S/X)
Camera feed now appears directly on the instrument panel.
Where to find it: Controls > Display > Automatic Blind Spot Camera
Dashcam Update + Side Camera Recording (Newer SX3Y)
Tesla now records side views (B-pillar cameras), increasing total dashcam angles from 4 to 6. A redesigned viewer makes browsing clips easier. It seem like the Model Y with HW3 might not get this as it’s not considered “newer”.
Lane Departure Avoidance (Cybertruck)
The Cybertruck will now show a blue line on-screen when drifting toward lane lines and can actively assist if enabled.
Alternative Trip Plans
Choose from:
Fastest (least travel time)
Best Amenities (stops near top-rated spots)
Fewer Stops (minimal charging)
Nearby cafes and shops are now shown on charger location pages.
Avoid Highways Option
Prefer slower, scenic routes? Now you can toggle highway avoidance in your navigation settings.
Comfort Drive Mode (Cybertruck)
Cybertruck will now auto-switch to Comfort Mode when Autopilot is on.
Save Trunk Height by Location
Model 3, Y, new Model S/X, and new Model 3 drivers can set a custom trunk height for places like home garages.
Save Frunk Height (Cybertruck)
Same idea, but for the front trunk on Cybertruck. Adjust it once and it remembers.
Keyboard Language Switching
Change input languages on the touchscreen keyboard.
Keep Accessory Power On
Power USB ports, wireless chargers, and outlets after leaving the vehicle, as long as battery is above 20%. This was taken away and finally it is back, as previously reported.
Media Player Tweaks
Filter search results by source
Shuffle Apple Music playlists with 100+ songs
Scroll SiriusXM favorites using steering wheel buttons
Amazon Music Free is now supported
See upcoming tracks on YouTube Music
Vehicle auto-connects to your cellphone hotspot when driving. This will be good for those without Premium Connectivity.
Tesla says this update will roll out gradually. Features depend on hardware and model year. Keep an eye on your in-car notifications for availability.
