So, at least for me, the is the first and only meaningful update I have gotten since I got my 2025 Aviator a year ago. And by meaningful I means changes to how anything works or looks.
This update lightly touches a number of places in both front screens, the center screen and the instrument cluster. So far I have noticed.
- Extended AC controls completely re-organized and rationalized - much improved
- Added a Day/Night/Auto mode to the display (which I did not have) which also effects Google maps. Before Google maps would change, but I could not control it or force a preferred mode, and nothing else changed. Now the general Day/Night appearance of the infotainment is different, and you can toggle it manually.
- Several controls have altered colors or contrast to make them clearer
- Some text dialogs are more prominent and/or clearer
- The various themes, although unchanged, have been modified. Nothing drastic I can see but they do have differences
- Of course the added voice feedback and tutorials the update changelog mentions
- It seems like the audio system sounds better. This is likely wishful thinking on my part but I am leaning into the delusion.
I do not know if this has resolved any of the numerous bugs yet (settings not sticking, audio controls sometimes stop working, lockups ect) but we can hope.
I honestly wasn't expecting any changes. Car manufacturers alwasy say then are going to update their infotainment system and/or add features, but I have never actually experienced it. From what I can tell updates are limited to Teslas, and several makes electric vehicles.
