how do you turn off a tesla

To turn off a Tesla manually while inside the vehicle, follow these steps: Shift the car into Park mode, then tap on the car icon on the touchscreen to open the settings menu. Navigate to Controls > Safety or Safety and Security, and select the "Power Off" option. The car will shut down. To turn it back on, tap the brake pedal or open the door. Usually, Teslas turn off automatically when you leave the car and it has been in Park for some time, so manual power off is not often necessary unless for troubleshooting or specific maintenance needs.
