The potentially life-saving feature now works while driving in reverse.
Tesla has pushed a new software update to its vehicles which adds a lot of new features, such as controlling phone calls via the steering wheel buttons and the ability to detect speed limit signs, but version 2023.12 also improved the Automatic Emergency Braking in two ways., the new software update adds the ability of the AEB to operate while driving in reverse, although with limited functionality, as well as increasing the forward speed range where the system can work.
Automatic Emergency Braking is designed to reduce the impact of frontal and reverse collisions with limited functionality while in Reverse., the system is now designed to determine the distance from detected objects, not just those in front of the vehicle. AEB works by constantly scanning the road and automatically applying the brakes to reduce the vehicle’s speed and potential severity of the impact.
Automatic Emergency Braking is always enabled when starting the vehicle but can be disabled from the car’s Autopilot settings. However, even with AEB disabled from the settings screen, the vehicle may still apply the brakes after detecting an initial collision to reduce further impact. As always, we’d like to know what you think about this, so head over to the comments section below to give us your thoughts.
