Tesla is one of the most innovative electric car manufacturers globally, a feature that has allowed it to position itself as one of the great promises for the future of the automotive industry. The Californian brand integrates cutting‑edge technology into all elements of the vehicle, from the windscreen wiper system to the car windows.
Carrying out a windscreen replacement or repair on a Tesla can be a complex task, as Tesla car windows incorporate highly sensitive and advanced technology, such as the ADAS system.
Nevertheless, within the Ralarsa network of automobile glass workshops, we are equipped with the latest technology and have qualified technicians capable of performing any windscreen repair or replacement, regardless of the vehicle’s make or model. At Ralarsa we repair your Tesla’s glass and restore the structural strength of your windscreen!
The windscreen as a key element in Tesla cars
Although the windscreen is one of the most important components of any vehicle, in Tesla cars it has truly significant importance. As mentioned earlier, the Californian brand integrates cutting‑edge technology into its electric cars, such as the ADAS system or autonomous driving.
Both technologies operate using cameras and sensors capable of detecting everything happening outside the car. These elements store such information to enable responses such as braking in the event of an accident or performing a manoeuvre — with the primary aim of facilitating driving and maximising user safety at the wheel.
Generally, the cameras used by ADAS systems are integrated into the car windows, as this is the most suitable location to capture an elevated, unobstructed view of what is happening around the vehicle. In some Tesla models, such as the Model X, there are “Big Sky” panoramic windscreens — the largest in the world — able to provide these cameras with an extremely wide field of vision.
This means that before carrying out a windscreen replacement or repair on a Tesla, it is necessary to remove the cameras from the damaged glass and subsequently re‑install them onto the new car windows. The camera reinstallation process involves their calibration.
Calibrating a Tesla windscreen’s cameras
Once the cameras have been installed onto the vehicle’s new windscreen, recalibration must be performed to ensure they function accurately and can correctly transmit all information to the ADAS system and autonomous driving. Proper calibration of safety systems is essential for enjoying maximum road safety.
