Tesla introduces new car feature
According to a report, Tesla just released an over-the-air update for its Model S and X cars that includes a new feature – the “Tesla Adaptive Suspension” system.
The release notes say that Tesla Adaptive Suspension will adjust ride height for an upcoming “rough road section.”
The new feature, which is not applicable to Autopilot or Full Self-Driving, will enable Tesla vehicles to scan the road ahead for potholes and adjust the suspension to potentially avoid damage.
According to a study by AAA, between 2013 and 2018, 16 million drivers across the country suffered pothole damage to their vehicles.
