XOS 5.6.0

Release Date: 08.04.2025
Region: Global / Europe
Build: XOS 5.6.0.8905

Guru Summary: What’s New?

The Big Highlight: XOS 5.6.0 significantly improves driving assistance stability using automatic background camera calibration, while also overhauling the navigation UI and introducing a global plug-and-play charging network with over 850,000 European chargers.

XPILOT & Smarter Cameras

  • Smart Camera Calibration: Your car’s cameras will now automatically calibrate themselves silently while driving. This drastically increases the precision of Lane Centering Control (LCC).
  • Smarter Highway Steering: Eliminates the slight oscillating “ping-ponging” behavior previously felt when LCC was active at high highway speeds.

Quality of Life & System Upgrades

  • Guest Mode: Eliminates the generic “not logged in” state. When unlocked with a physical key or without an account, the car instantly switches to a clean Guest Mode.
  • X-Combo Sharing: You can now share your custom X-Combo automations with the community via QR Codes and URLs. You can also revert settings directly if an X-Combo alters your layout.
  • Global Charging Expansions: Directly taps into a network of over 850,000 charging stations across Europe. The Navigation system now also accurately reports the State of Charge (SOC) you will have upon arriving at your destination.

Official Vendor Release Notes

AI Driving Assistance

Driver Assistance

  • Adaptive Cruise Control（ACC）
    【Enhancement】Reduces the frequency of sudden unexpected deceleration in some scenarios. Deceleration due to glitches will occur much less often.
  • Lane Centering Control（LCC）
    【Enhancement】Improves vehicle steering on highways. Previously, if LCC was active on road sections at 130 km/h, the vehicle could occasionally sway slightly left and right. This issue has been fully resolved, ensuring highway driving stability.
    【New】Capable of smart camera calibration. The system automatically calibrates its cameras while driving, significantly boosting the accuracy of Lane Centering. After the OTA, the system routinely calibrates every 30 days depending on driving conditions (e.g. driving straight for over 10 km on multi-lane roads).
