Even better, there's already a sensor to let it know the driver's side door has been opened.. that should give it a head start.

The less shitty car makes use this to start the infotainment system early, BMW and Mercedes comes to mind.

But the overall state of infotainment systems is laughably bad, there's a few that are merely ok, most are bad, and some are rage-inducing. (Hello Cadillac!)

Indeed, opening the door is what wakes up the Tesla infotainment system.
