Guest Mode

For Fleet accounts — Experimental

Guest Mode is the ideal solution for rental and fleet managers. It restricts vehicle access, allows drivers to set up guest Tesla mobile app access using a key card, and allows easy data erasure after the guest is finished using the vehicle.

Enable Guest Mode

On your Fleet Dashboard, click the shield icon to the right of the vehicle then click Enable.

Erase user data

On your Fleet Dashboard, click the shield icon to the right of the vehicle then click Erase User Data.

What it restricts

Guest Mode protects the integrity of the vehicle by preventing guest users from:

  • Changing keys
  • Changing the vehicle name
  • Changing PIN to Drive
  • Changing Speed Limit Mode
  • Changing the Glovebox PIN
  • Formatting the dash cam USB drive

What it enables

If a user unlocks a vehicle or authenticates it for driving while in Guest Mode, they will receive a prompt to set up a phone key by scanning a QR code on the touchscreen.

This gives them limited access to:

  • View the vehicle's live location
  • Issue remote commands
  • Download their Tesla account profile to the vehicle
  • Set up their phone as a key

How it works

  • If a user unlocks a vehicle or authenticates it for driving while in Guest Mode, they will receive a prompt to set up a phone key by scanning a QR code on the touchscreen.
    • Requires the vehicle to be online.
    • Does not show a QR code if a phone key is already connected.
    • Revokes any existing guest access if a QR code is shown.
  • Only one guest is allowed access at a time.
  • If a user does not have the app installed, they will see this webpage to guide them through the process.
