A Tesla carries a lot of glass, and on a bright New England afternoon that shows up as heat on your arms, glare across the screen and a cabin that takes a while to settle. Kepler IR and IR+ are nano-ceramic automotive film ranges built to reduce solar heat and glare while keeping the view out clean, so the drive is more comfortable whether you are heading to work or out of town for the weekend.
Kepler develops nano-ceramic automotive film in two ranges, IR and IR+, each offered in a set of shades. The choice comes down to how much light you want passing through the glass and how the finished car should look. Shade and solar performance are separate things, so compare the exact film and shade side by side rather than assuming a darker option always does more.
Plenty of owners start thinking about window film in the first few weeks after taking delivery, while the glass is still spotless and the car has not had a summer to bake in. It is a sensible time to plan, because Tesla glazing and the suitability of different films depend on the model and year. A dealer will want to know exactly which car you have before recommending a film and shade for it.
The glass architecture that makes a Tesla feel so open also lets a lot of solar energy into the cabin. Nano-ceramic film reduces the heat that arrives through the windows, which means the climate system has less to work against on a hot day and the interior is more pleasant to get back into after the car has been parked in the sun.
When less solar heat reaches the cabin, the air conditioning has a smaller gap to close and holds a comfortable temperature with less effort. For Peabody drivers that shows up as a car that cools down sooner after a day in a parking lot, and seats and a steering wheel that are easier to touch.
Film works on the sunlight before it becomes heat inside the car, so the benefit is steady rather than something you notice only at the start of a journey. Cutting glare and reducing UV exposure also helps protect the interior surfaces your Tesla is trimmed with, which is part of why film is a practical upgrade for daily drivers as well as weekend cars.
Kepler's nano-ceramic development is aimed at one idea: performance should not depend on how dark the glass looks. Because the film works on solar energy rather than simply blocking light, a lighter Kepler shade can still be a serious choice for heat and glare, which gives Tesla owners far more freedom over the finished look of the car.
Nano-ceramic particles are built into the film to address infrared energy, the part of sunlight most people feel as heat on their skin. That construction is why shade alone tells you very little about performance, and why two films at the same visible light transmission can behave differently in the same car.
Kepler IR and IR+ are developed for modern vehicle glazing, where large panels, screens and driver assistance systems all share the same cabin. The aim is a film that manages solar heat and glare while keeping vision clear, so the car still feels the way Tesla designed it. Which film and shade suit your vehicle depends on the model and year, and that is a conversation to have with the dealer handling your enquiry.
A nano-ceramic film is built up in layers rather than simply dyed, combining the ceramic layers with a clear adhesive system and a hard outer coat that faces the cabin. That construction is what separates ceramic film from basic dyed film, and it is the reason to compare a specific film and shade instead of comparing tint in general.
The technical data on this page lets you look past marketing language and at the film itself. Read the figures for the exact film and shade you are considering, then ask a dealer how those numbers translate to your Tesla and the glazing it came with.

Nebula is the deepest shade in the range, giving your Tesla a blacked-out finish and the least light through the glass. Daytime privacy depends on the lighting balance either side of the window, so expect a different effect once it is dark outside and the cabin is lit.
