Tesla announces its winter update. An update in which we discover an application for Apple Watch. Excellent news for individuals and the French police. Other new features are on the program and the launch is planned for next week. Finally, we mention a rumor about 3 new Teslas which must be released before July 2025.
Tesla unveils its Christmas present
Tesla news is hectic at the end of 2024. After the announcement of the Cybercab, a vehicle without a steering wheel or pedals, on October 11, Tesla formalized the imminent release of its application for Apple Watch. This is just one of many new features coming next week. The application will of course allow you to lock and unlock your Tesla, but also to check the battery charge and activate the air conditioning. An app eagerly awaited by the brand’s customers.
Tesla has also innovated for its iPhone application. The new update allows you to view recordings from the Tesla’s cameras directly in the app and save them to the iPhone for easy editing and sharing.
Another important point, the new battery setting on arrival. Thanks to this new option, it is possible to set the desired battery level upon arrival. The car’s GPS then incorporates this information into the route to ensure this condition is met. In addition to predicting charging times, it also anticipates the percentage of battery remaining once you arrive at your destination. Another feature highly anticipated by customers.
The GPS map on the main screen becomes more complete with the addition of precipitation to know if it is raining at the destination and better ergonomics for displaying routes. Speaking of bad weather, the Tesla now gives an audio and visual signal on the screen when there is an obstacle while reversing. This applies to pedestrians, vehicles and objects. Practical in case of unpredictable weather. All other new features can be found in the official tweet.

Rumor: 3 new models in 2025
On this subject, we move into mode rumor. At the end of October, when revealing its third quarter results, Tesla promised more affordable models in 2025. A promise not to be taken literally although the X account @TeslaNewswire gives us its version.
According to him, Tesla is preparing 3 new models which will be launched worldwide during the first half of 2025. The 3 factories, Giga Texas, Giga Berlin and Giga Shanghai would be involved for production. Regarding the models, we are talking about an improved Model Y, a compact crossover under the code name Redwood and a CyberCab with steering wheel and pedals for individuals.
As indicated at the beginning of the topic and at the end of the post, “take out the tweezers”. Despite some information unearthed, this is mere speculation following Tesla’s announcement last October.
According to rumors, Tesla may have 3 new car models set to launch globally in the first half of 2025.
These vehicles would reportedly roll out simultaneously from 3 factories:
