11 Hidden Tesla Features in 2026 Even Owners Forget (Model Y Juniper Demo!)

/ 2 hours ago February 27, 2026

From Bearded Tesla Guy.

11 hidden Tesla features in 2026 that even long-time owners still forget or never discover! I’m demoing all of them right here on my 2026 Model Y Juniper in Florida — including my personal hacks like the 3-way USB splitter for Sentry + light shows + phone charging, the sneaky second hidden sub-trunk compartment, and the only inverters that actually work on Tesla’s 16V lithium low-voltage system.

These are the underrated tips, Easter eggs, and menu tricks buried in your Tesla that can save time, add fun, and make ownership even better.
