- Adjustment of regeneration
Many people feel that Teslas regenerate too much when releasing the accelerator. With "The Commander" and the S3XY-app, you can choose to set regeneration to 0, 25, 50, or 75% of full regeneration. Perfect for long trips, for example, when you don't want the car to "brake" as much as usual.

In addition to Drift Mode and regeneration adjustment, "The Commander" offers many other useful features:
- Use your phone as a dashboard. This displays speed, battery percentage and remaining range, turn signals, how much power the car is using or regenerating, which "gear" the car is in, what level of regeneration is active, and how much power is being used at the front and rear.
- Battery temperature (Good to know before using fast chargers)
- Activate the ability to open the frunk or charge port by holding the different door handles on the car. Pull them fully out and hold for 2 seconds.
- Kickdown Activates the car's full power
- Turn off High Beam and windshield wipers if they automatically start after Autopilot activation.
- Continue Autopilot - Allow your Tesla to automatically reactivate Autopilot after turning or changing lanes.
- Automatically open driver's door when you approach the car. The driver's door will then "pop" open slightly.
