Where is the Tesla glove box button located?
2 Answers
Tesla's glove box switch is located on the vehicle's center console panel. The physical buttons on the center console panel are the hazard warning lights and the glove box switch. Pressing the glove box switch will open the vehicle's glove compartment, while other operational controls are completed via the color touchscreen. Below is relevant information: Introduction: Tesla is an American electric vehicle and clean energy company that manufactures and sells electric cars, solar panels, and energy storage systems. Its headquarters are located in Palo Alto. Development: Tesla's initial new energy vehicle startup team primarily came from Silicon Valley, adopting an IT philosophy to build cars rather than following the traditional automotive manufacturer approach represented by Detroit. As such, Tesla's electric vehicle production is often viewed as a story of a Silicon Valley upstart challenging the Detroit giants.
When I first got my Tesla Model 3, I thought there would be a small button for the glovebox near the center console, but I couldn't find it after searching for a while! Later, I realized Tesla's design is very futuristic—the glovebox doesn't rely on physical buttons and is entirely operated through the central touchscreen. Here's how: After starting the vehicle, tap the car icon at the bottom of the screen to enter the settings menu, where you'll directly find the 'Glovebox' option. A single tap opens it automatically. It's very convenient, eliminating the hassle of traditional buttons and keeping the interior cleaner. New owners might find it odd at first, but you'll get used to it. This design also enhances anti-theft security since there's no external button to pry open. For safety, it's best to operate the screen while parked. I also discovered that the Tesla mobile app can remotely open the glovebox—so smart! In short, adapting to digital controls is key.
