The new Model S and Model X will now display a visualization of the vehicle on the center screen. Similarly to the Model 3 and Model Y, this gives owners easy access to open the frunk and trunk, as well as lock or unlock the vehicle.

This prevents owners from having to go to Controls every time they need to open the frunk/trunk from inside the vehicle.

The visualization goes away once you tap any other area of the screen.
