Tesla Debuts ‘Dog Mode’ To Protect Pets From Hot Cars

We all know not to leave pets alone in cars, especially during the hot summer months, but with Tesla's new feature leaving your dog in an unattended vehicle for a short time safe and stress free.

According to Teslarati.com, Dog Mode aims to "keep unattended pets inside a vehicle at a comfortable temperature while also informing passersby of their safety".

So, what exactly does Dog Mode do? The new feature keeps a vehicle’s climate control on even when the vehicle is turned off and will also display a message on the center of the touch screen to notify passersby that the pets are safe.

Dog Mode is only available in Tesla's Model S, Model X, Model 3 vehicles.
