    At a press event on Tuesday, Tesla shared how it took advantage of Nvidia GPU technology to make a car ready for continual upgrades.

    Tesla's path to the upgradable car | The Car Tech blog - CNET Reviews

    "At Tesla's sunny headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif., I asked CTO JB Straubel when to expect the next model upgrade for the Model S. He quickly dismissed the automaker cliche of updates based on model years, saying that Tesla would release new features for the Model S as his team finished creating them."

    "One of the Model S' great strengths, beyond its zero emissions, minimal running costs, excellent driving character, and luxury appointments, is that Tesla can deliver over-the-air updates to its cabin electronics."
