Drivers can now enable the system to change lanes without using the turn signal, but the system still requires a high level of driver engagement.
and found that it was impressive, but that it also asked for more driver engagement than previous versions of Autopilot.The main update to the feature involves lane changes. Before, the driver had to confirm a lane switch, suggested by Navigate on Autopilot, using the turn-signal stalk. The update removes that requirement, but without lessening driver involvement.
"If a driver selects 'No' to Require Lane Change Confirmation, lane changes will happen automatically, without requiring a driver to confirm them first,"Drivers can elect to get notified about an upcoming lane change by receiving an audible chime as well as a default visual prompt. Additionally, all cars made after August 2017 will also have the option to have their steering wheel vibrate for the alert as well.
The update to Navigate on Autopilot is classic Tesla. It became available to owners in the US on Wednesday, as long as they had added Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving Capability to their vehicles. It was an over-the-air software update, a modest, iterative improvement to an existing Tesla feature, requiring owners to do nothing more than accept the update.
Tesla said that pending regulatory approval, the feature would eventually be offered in markets outside the US.
