Tesla stands for revolutionary innovation in the field of electromobility. One of the most impressive features is the "Tesla Bioweapon Protection Mode" available in the Model Y crossover SUV.
The Tesla bioweapon protection mode - unique safety
The Tesla Bioweapon Protection Mode is an innovative featurethat has never before been found in any other electric car. It provides protection against environmental pollution and uses advanced HEPA filter technology to protect occupants from a wide range of pollutants.
HEPA stands for "High Efficiency Particulate Air" and refers to a type of air filter that can remove 99.97 percent of all particles with a size of 0.3 micrometers from the air. This is about 300 times smaller than a human hair. HEPA filters work by a combination of mechanisms such as diffusion, interception and impaction to remove particles from the air.
They are particularly effective against pollutants such as dust, pollen, mold and bacteria. The Tesla bioweapon protection mode uses a highly efficient HEPA filter to protect the vehicle interior from harmful particles and toxins.
In a video from 2019, the car manufacturer demonstrated the effectiveness of the defense mode, which even withstood a smoke grenade.
In a comment under the video, a Tesla driver also thanked the company for the function. It is said to have been a decisive factor in the forest fires in California, as his son suffers from asthma and would have been so severely endangered by the air pollution.
In an increasingly polluted world, the Tesla bioweapon protection mode thus provides an additional layer of protection against dangerous particles, toxins and pollution of most kinds.
How to activate Tesla Bioweapon Protection Mode in Model Y
Using Tesla Bioweapon Protection Mode is straightforward and user-friendly. It can be easily activated via the vehicle's touchscreen display:
Once activated, the system immediately begins to filter the air inside the vehicle, creating a clean and healthy environment.
The Tesla bioweapon mode underscores the automaker's commitment to the safety of its customers. In addition to other advanced safety functions such as the autopilot and the emergency braking assistant, the bioweapon protection mode offers an additional level of safety.
Which Teslas have HEPA filters?
Some of the electric pioneer's vehicles are equipped with HEPA filters that meet the highest air purification standards. The Model S and Model X were the first models in which the company introduced the HEPA filter to enable the bioweapon protection function.
Finally, Tesla has also installed this powerful filter in the Model Y, allowing even more customers to benefit from the advanced air purification technology. For space reasons, only the Model 3 does not currently have a HEPA filter.
