Autopilot is a Tesla feature that gets a lot of attention.
But the cars come equipped with many more, including the "frunk," which competitors have copied.
Other unique Tesla features include "Dog mode" and "Ludicrous Plus Mode."
Tesla vehicles are engineered with a plethora of interesting add-ons and easter eggs.
Some of the features are what you might expect from a tech-savvy car company, like the Tesla app and key card. Others reflect Elon Musk's unique sense of humor and have added to Tesla's cult following.
From sentry mode to "caraoke," these 22 Tesla features — and some bonus ones that employees are rumored to have access to — put the cars in a league of their own.
1. Autopilot Tesla finally started to roll out its highly anticipated "Actually Smart Summon" feature, referred to as ASS by the company, on Tuesday.
Drivers can now open the "Summon" tab on the Tesla app to get a live view of their vehicles. They can then select "COME TO ME" or "GO TO TARGET" to make the vehicle come to owners or go toward a chosen spot on its own. If that seems like too much, there's also Dumb Summon, which can simply move your Tesla back and forth.
Musk wrote in a post on X it would be widely available next week. Tesla says that both Summon features should only be used in parking lots or driveways and drivers should remain alert.
While the original version of Summon was released in 2019, Tesla owners reported a number of issues with the tool. Musk previously said the new feature would be out by the end of September 2022 and then hinted at April 2023. Tesla failed to deliver the update by both deadlines.
The rumored new "Night Curfew" feature can send parents notifications when their Tesla is driven past a set curfew time.

The update includes new parental controls, with a number of features that can be enabled with a vehicle PIN, according to the reports. The new "Night Curfew" feature sends notifications to the Tesla mobile app when a vehicle is driven past a set curfew time.
