According to Electrek,Tesla is working to transfer driver files to the cloud for synchronization between vehicles. This will make it more convenient for owners of multiple Tesla vehicles and those who rent or share Tesla vehicles.
In the past few years, Tesla has been taking action to build a smooth experience for the future of autonomous driving and car sharing. For example, Tesla has previously introduced a new “Car Access” feature that allows car owners to allow others to access their cars through the company’s mobile application.
Although this is already useful for people sharing Tesla, this feature is expected to be particularly useful once the company launches the “Tesla Network”, a network for autonomous driving, car-hailing, and car sharing.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has also been talking about putting user profiles in the cloud and automatically loading all the owner’s preferences into the new Tesla vehicles they use.
Now, Tesla is working in this direction with a new “Vehicle Sync” feature.
Not a Tesla AppThis feature was discovered in the latest Tesla software update.
In this version, a new feature called “cloud profile” is mentioned, which allows users to choose to “enable vehicle synchronization” for individual driver profiles.
The new “Vehicle Sync” feature can be enabled for specific driver profiles.
It will help Tesla drivers synchronize their profiles on different vehicles:
If you own multiple Teslas, use a borrowed Tesla or a rented Tesla, then you will be able to keep your profile settings the same on your vehicle. When you change a setting, it will automatically transfer to your other vehicle.
Now, car owners can easily add vehicles to their Tesla apps through the “Car Access” feature, which opens up many possibilities.
After Hertz announced its intention to purchase 100,000 Tesla vehicles to update its rental fleet, Musk was asked if Tesla could release such a feature, and the CEO confirmed that it is in progress.
