At Tesla Info, we like to compare Tesla to the competition because it helps to accurately assess the brand's pros and cons and debunk some of the myths spread by overly enthusiastic Tesla supporters and detractors. Neither extreme is helpful.
Many people think that only Tesla does software updates over the air (OTA). While Tesla was the first to do this on a large scale, that is no longer true, as companies like BMW have been doing it for quite some time. The BMW in the video is over 3 years old, for reference, and has never been to a dealership for a software or map update, both of which can be done over the air.
This video compares how the two companies perform updates for informational purposes, what is similar and what is different.
