Man I don’t drive with a passenger enough to care about ui animations on my car. I just want to set the fan speed and move on... preferably without looking.

When I rented a Tesla I recall being able to set all these controls with my voice.

  How well does voice control handle outside noise? Torrential downpours, sleet/hail? If the windows start to fog during one of those situations, taking your attention off the road to look and swipe is very dangerous. Edit to add: Is the voice processing being handled on board? If not, then if your signal fails....

    > How well does voice control handle outside noise? Torrential downpours, sleet/hail? The Model 3 at least is remarkably quiet; hard rain and street noise and dampened a lot. To the point where we felt it was almost eerie the first time we took it home. Voice recognition has been perfect in all conditions.

      Do you have a 2021 model with dual pane windows? The Model 3 objectively has a noisier cabin at highway speed than anything else in its class.

    I turned the wipers on with my first try, wearing a face mask, without knowing what the voice command was, and English isn't my native language. You do need to speak loudly, and there's an unfamiliar concentration aspect to using a voice command rather than a switch.

  Probably not the best place to ask this, but how well does it understand languages different from English?

    Or even English with something other than a North American accent?

Fan isn’t that bad because you can change it when it’s safe to do so. Changing the windshield wiper speed because you can barely see is my biggest issue. I always forget which way to swipe while trying focus on seeing out the window. It was worse when auto wipers feature just didn’t work and now it kinda works.
