Over-the-air updates

When your vehicle is connected to the internet, it can receive over-the-air1 updates to keep the vehicle's software up to date. Your vehicle will tell you when there is an update available to download and install by displaying the update symbol in the status bar, as well as a notification.

You can also check for new software updates by going to System → System details → Software update in settings.

Automatic software downloads

You will be asked if you want to enable automatic software downloads when you set up your vehicle for the first time. You can always choose to enable or disable automatic downloads at a later time in settings. If you decide not to enable them, you will be asked for consent to download software updates whenever they are available.

Installing software updates

When a new software update is available, the vehicle will download the update but it won't install it for you. You need to start the installation yourself, either via a notification in the center display or in the software update view. You can also choose to postpone the update so that it installs at a later time or cancel the installation after confirming it.

You can't access or use your vehicle while a software update is installing. Therefore, make sure that there is sufficient remaining battery charge and that you don't need to use your vehicle during the installation process. The vehicle will tell you how much battery charge you need to start the installation and give you an estimate of how long it will take to install the update.
