Hi everyone,
Starting a new thread due to the name change from Highway Assist to Drive Assist. I wanted to see if anyone has experienced the updated Drive Assist in rainy conditions.
Today, while driving down the hill from Victorville to Riverside, I encountered heavy rain—conditions that would have previously required me to take over due to the system’s lack of confidence. However, today was different. The feature worked flawlessly, even executing lane changes throughout the drive. In the past, the lane markings would have remained solid, preventing lane changes, but this time, it handled them smoothly. I was genuinely impressed with the updates and feel that Drive Assist has made significant progress.
I’d love to hear from others, especially those in harsher climates, to see if they’ve had similar experiences with the latest version.
On a side note, beyond its improved performance in the rain, I’ve also noticed a major reduction in its tendency to bias right in the lane, as well as its previous issues with inconsistent acceleration. These quirks have almost disappeared entirely, which is amazing progress for the technology.
Looking forward to your thoughts!
P.S. Also, any insights @Denali_Dane since you recently moved up in the world? (From a performance Tesla to a Lucid?)
