    If it was the Tacoma the truck would have been taken and I'd have no idea till I tried to leave.

    It’s finally here, the update I’ve most anticipated since ordering the car, enabling the matrix LED adaptive headlights in update 2024.20:
    https://www.notateslaapp.com/news/2...urves-adds-supercharger-leaderboards-and-more

    Tesla had started installing matrix LED adaptive headlights in the US before the technology was legal for use and just had them disabled. In Feb 2022 that changed when NHTSA approved their use, its then just been a waiting game for the software update to enable the functionality, and now it’s here.

    I thought this wasn't the full functionality we were hoping for. Just does corner stuff and a different pattern on highway. I didn't see that it activly shadowed out oncoming traffic. I'll still take it but I want the full deal even if it's not technically approved.

    Reading the actual Tesla tweet, it looks like you are correct. Curve adaptation only for the US at this time.:pout:

    I attempted to make a video demonstrating the matrix curve adaption shown against a garage door at moderate distance. Unfortunately it was hardly noticeable. A few degrees plays out more over distance but even so this seems like hardly an upgrade over fixed beam unfortunately.

    My guess is they’ll improve it as time goes on.

    Is this the first time the matrix lights have done anything? I've watched a couple of Youtubes and it doesn't look like much on them either. What will be cool is when/if the matrix dims sections of the light so not to blind oncoming drivers.
