Tesla does them because they beta-test their software on their clients, and because they don't have dealers/servicing in certain states or parts of the country. I find both reasons deeply uncool.
The ability to switch features on and off over the air is a different thing, and way cooler. Although it makes you realize you already bought your AutoPilot technology when you bought the car, and now just need a $6,000 activation code for it. That's maybe worse than having empty button slots on the dash like Porsche. |
Let me get this straight: Tesla provides a seamless, over-the-air update service that does NOT require you to make a trip to the dealer, AND it's FREE, and you find this "deeply uncool"? Seriously...
