Default HEPA cabin filter

Wishing my car has the Tesla biodefense mode now that there's two huge fire in California and the air quality is akin to Beijing. So what's the best filter I can buy that actually filters out everything?

I don't think anything can help that.

Bosch makes HEPA cabin filters, but not for the C7.

I installed the FRAM CF11181 Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter with Arm & Hammer and it seems to work well but I have no idea if it would help with smoke...

The Fram Fresh Breeze will have virtually no effect on smoke. The Fram says it removes up to 98% of dirt, dust and allergens. The fine print reads: "Road dust and pollen particles ranging in size from 5-100 microns."

90% of wood smoke particles are less than 1 micron.

I have the fram fresh breeze in mine. Only bc it was cheap on amazon and I needed a replacement. Personally I can't tell the difference in that and a normal filter. It is a total PITA to get it in there tho.

^^^^^ I agree on the PITA getting it back in correctly...
