The i3 has 40GB of usable storage on-board, which is easily enough for a dash cam especially seeing as most owners don't store music on the i3's hard drive. A front/rear dash cam using both cameras on cars that have them would be great.
Odd actually. My brand new i3 with the latest update actually estimated a much lower range than achieved. Based on experience tracking my miles per kW/h that seems like an accurate estimate for an Eco-conscious driver.
Congratulations! Wow, being in an EV sales tax-exempt state I didn't realize sales tax was charged on the capitalized cost; I was under the impression it was charged on the monthly payment or amount financed before rebates.
Is it normal behavior for forward collision to not intervene if I have it set to early and let me end up inches from someone's bumper? Even without ACC enabled, I figured forward collision should work 90% flawlessly.
I'm trying to give the i3 some excuse for appearing that it wasn't going to brake at all, but I can't find one. I even checked the make sure the forward collision warning was on.
Good points you bring up, as the Tesla Autopilot in its current incarnation would just follow the school zone speed limit with no regard for posted times. As the driver still has to be alert the driver would be responsible for manually setting the correct speed outside of school hours.
I hypothesize that perhaps the main reason it didn't stop for me was the battery was close to full when I tried it so there wasn't enough capacity to regen or I wouldn't completely rule out driver error although it got dangerously close without me intervening so even if I had accidentally...
The Tesla Model S does it, and while I accepted that it won't stay in its lane in the U.S. like Tesla Autopilot, I just assumed after seeing the speed limits posted next to the speedometer in a test drive that one of the reasons for that was so the ACC can adjust for speed. That would be a...
One of my i3's few disappointments thus far has been the Active Cruise Control. At best, it whizzes along with slightly more intelligence than a standard cruise control. At its worst, it's a worrisome piece of technology that feels unreliable. Perhaps the system is just now being demystified as...
To piggyback off your thread...
I notice that when I put the car in park it usually inches forward a slight bit, even if the car was fully stopped either through regen or having my foot on the brake. My CTS ICE exhibited similar behavior when I let my foot off the brake after setting the...
