22 features that make Tesla cars unlike any others

All Tesla models are equipped with an autopilot advanced driver assistance system.

Newer Tesla models have "8 external cameras, 12 ultrasonic sensors and a powerful onboard computer provide an additional layer of safety," Tesla's website says. Autopilot is meant to be used by drivers who are alert and have their hands on the wheel."

Currently enabled features do not make the vehicle autonomous," Tesla says, despite the name.

In the 10.0 software update, Tesla's got a new "caraoke '' function which allows Tesla owners to choose from a vast selection of music and song lyrics.

The music selection also features music in different languages. But don't get the idea that you'll be able to sing caraoke while driving, in order for this feature to work, you have to be parked.

Tesla's Model X and Model Y are equipped with a serious HEPA filtration system that filters toxic chemicals from getting into the cabin of the car.

"Inspired by the air filtration systems used in hospitals, clean rooms, and the space industry, we developed a HEPA filtration system capable of stripping the outside air of pollen, bacteria, and pollution," Tesla says.

All Tesla models feature a unique touchscreen that comes with an array of features including video games and live traffic updates. The screens are also home to standard features like climate control and navigation but look nothing like anything else on the market.

With Tesla's premium connectivity you can access various websites while your car is parked, including Hulu, Spotify, and PLEX media player.

Each Tesla is programmed with virtual Easter eggs that can range anywhere from Santa in a sleigh, a rainbow-like road, and even the port of your supercharger lighting up with colors of the rainbow.

Tesla's are equipped with a smart auto raising air suspension system that changes based on the GPS coordinates of your vehicle. Users also have the option to change the firmness of the suspension manually through the Tesla control panel. This feature could really come in handy if you're traveling across the country, and experience changes in the road.

Sentry mode allows you to keep a close eye on your parked vehicle from anywhere in the world. Let's say someone hits your car with a shopping cart, your Tesla will start recording from the outside cameras and alert you that your vehicle has been hit through the Tesla app. This feature eliminates the stress of ever wondering where that mysterious dent came from.

Tesla's advanced parking sensors allow drivers to be completely aware of objects that may be too close. If an object gets too close to your vehicle, the car will notify you through audible and visual indicators that you are veering too close to something.

There are more than 25,000 Tesla supercharging stations globally. Tesla says that you can charge your car for as little as 15 minutes for 200 miles of travel.

There are plenty of options that aren't traditional keys for a Tesla. If you don't want to use your phone or the card, there are also unique key fobs shaped like a Tesla car.

One of the most interesting things about Tesla is the app, which allows drivers to control their car from virtually anywhere. The app sends real-time updates if sentry mode were to activate. You can also check the status of your vehicle while it's charging, control the air conditioning and heat, and also lock and unlock your car.

Tesla vehicles frequently receive over-the-air updates which are designed to send new features to the vehicles and "make them safer," Tesla's website says.

The vehicles cannot be operated when updates are being installed but you can operate your vehicle when updates are downloading. Other automakers have since adopted Tesla's approach for vehicle updates.

If you have a need for speed and want to take your Tesla to the race track, then ludicrous plus mode is for you. This feature heats up the battery to an optimum temperature that allows the vehicle to hit maximum speed.

Plaid mode is another feature for speed racers. Teslas with plaid mode "have batteries and three electric motors that can produce up to 1,020 horsepower and can take the car from zero to 60 miles an hour in just two seconds," CNN says. That brings these cars in the same performance bracket as Bugatti's and Lamborghinis.

Tesla cars are equipped with a fart mode that allows your vehicle to sound like its breaking wind.

Most cars have a truck in the back, but why would Tesla pass up the opportunity to be anything less than original. The frunk is just like a trunk, but in the front instead of the back — another feature quickly copied by competitors.

Through your Tesla music app, you can censor explicit lyrics in songs, which is perfect for driving with young children.
