Tesla is rolling out its year-end, ‘Holiday Season’ update for its cars. One of the highlights of this update is the addition of Steam to the Model S and Model X electric vehicles (EVs). Other than that, the update also includes handy safety features and a new way to show off your Tesla.

The gaming service Steam will bring a wide array of games to the Model S and X which can be accessed through the cars’ infotainment systems. The Model S and X touchscreens allow users to play with controllers and even a keyboard and mouse.

Other new functionalities

Apple Music is another addition to the cars’ infotainment app suite. One interesting feature is ‘Light Show’ which allows multiple Tesla cars to play a coordinated headlight show.

Tesla owners will now be able to keep an eye on their dog in the car using the smartphone app. The ‘Dog Mode’ also displays a friendly message for concerned passers-by that the AC is on and the dog is comfortable while waiting for its owner.

It’s always surprising to see how much functionality can be added to modern EVs with just a software update. The Tesla Models S, X, Y and 3 will receive the updates over-the-air in a phased manner in different countries.
