Tesla 2026.26.6.2 Summer Update Release Notes

This release contains minor fixes and improvements

You can now talk to Grok, an intelligent assistant built by xAI. To launch Grok, go to App Launcher > Grok, long-press the voice button on your steering wheel, or say "Hey Grok." Say "goodbye" to dismiss.

Choose Grok's voice and personality, ranging from Storyteller to Unhinged, or set it to Assistant to add and edit navigation destinations, make phone calls, play music, adjust climate, and search the Controls panel. Ask Grok about your Tesla or what was included in your latest software update. You can also set location-based reminders, like "remind me to pick up milk when I'm near home."

Go to Grok > Settings to enable or disable "Hey Grok" and location-based reminders.

Requires Premium Connectivity or a WiFi connection. Conversations are anonymous to Tesla and not associated with your vehicle.

Add songs to your Apple Music queue directly from Search results and Artist pages. Tap and hold a song, or tap the three-dot menu to play next, add to queue, save to your library, or mark as a favorite. Requires an active Apple Music subscription.

Automatic Navigation now adapts to your routine. In addition to Home, Work, and upcoming calendar events, your vehicle can now suggest and route to the places you visit regularly, like a school drop-off on the way to work, or the gym on the way home.

To enable, go to Controls > Navigation > Automatic Navigation. Location data is anonymous to Tesla and not associated with your vehicle.

If you attempt to open a door while an approaching object is detected in your blind spot (for example, a bicyclist approaching from behind) the blind spot indicator light flashes, a chime sounds, and your door will not open upon initial button press. Wait a short time and press the button a second time to override the warning.
