For completeness I've seen a fair share of Infotainment units with development/test modes in production.
The main difference is as far as I know those have a fairly segregate gap between cockpit infotainment and safety critical vehicle functions, including separate CAN buses and CAN gateways.
With Tesla I am not sure as they seem to have thrown away every lesson in Automotive design and started from scratch.
- Xylakant 3y agoI have no issue with infotainment systems with development, beta, test modes in vehicles on the road as long as the infotainment system is not essential to safe operation of the vehicle.
- DoingIsLearning 3y agoMy point exactly, entirely unclear to me if that separation happens with Tesla.
- Xylakant 3y agoAs far as I remember, the infotainment screen and menus are used for operations related to driving the car, such as wiper controls. I don’t own a Tesla nor do I drive one, so I may be wrong. I personally would consider that a lack of separation. In this case, however, the question is irrelevant - the FSD system is clearly part of operating the vehicle, it’s safety relevant and not there for infotainment.
