There are plenty of videos where FSD have prevented an accident through quick maneuvers where the driver wasn't even aware that there was danger. here's one: I'm not sure if you have any first hand experience with FSD, but it will engage in almost all conditions short of the camera being...

The question will be whether EV batteries are considered a wear item when they fail.

Solution is to replace the battery, doubt Porsche will pony up for that unless it's forced to by a lawsuit.

It's not that we think that Tesla can do no wrong. But rather that people that are bashing Tesla because they hate Elon due to his political leanings (DEI/Trans issue in particular) and not because Tesla is particularly bad. It's hard to argue about the virtue of FSD with someone that has...

Let's say that they believed the FSD hype 100%. Any rational person with any sense of self-preservation would realize after the first incident where FSD ask you to take over or performed a dangerous maneuver that they would been to be more attentive. If the driver continues to work on their...

No Autonomy system will be perfect, but it's already better than the avg human driver. So if you're looking at the macro picture, FSD will try to kill you less than you trying to kill yourself. Insurance companies are starting to back FSD with lower rates confirming that they believe that FSD...

Other EVs manufacturers using LG batteries settled with LG and then used that money to offset some of their losses when replacing the battery. I wonder if Porsche just took the money from LG and ran.

I'm surprise that a law firm has not started a class action lawsuit yet. Especially since a significant portion of porsche owners are lawyers.

If you're not capable of taking over when needed, then you shouldn't be driving. Kind of like the elderly that eventually will need to give up their license. Having said that, there is a gray area why FSD is extremely helpful. It's that age group when they can still drive, but the reflex is...

These are examples of irresponsible drivers. Like people that drink and drive. Or people that use their cell phone while driving. Ultimately, it comes down to the driver being responsible. I don't think the naming convention fooled people into believing that they shouldn't be paying...

Finally, I brought my car to the dealer for this before and their response had been "seems to function as normal." They blamed the tinted windows, saying that it caused more friction.

FSD like EVs is one of those things you have to experience first hand.

The funny thing about this article is that it suggest that Tesla FSD is “only” 3 times less likely to get into an airbag deploying accident. Yes, it’s not 10x as Tesla claims but still 3x less compare to the avg driver. That’s a pretty good achievement and will only get better with time.

That video is not very impressive. Many other car manufactures can do that and more. Also to be limited to 95kph is a non starter in the US. I'm not sure how highways operate in Europe, but the avg speed on most Hwys in the US is well north of 70mph/112 kph. You'll be a hazard if you are...

what this graph misses is the huge dealer mark ups in 21. So the actual starting price is likely 10-20k more than MSRP

https://www.autoevolution.com/news/tesla-self-certified-its-model-y-robotaxis-for-level-4-autonomy-under-a-new-texas-law-270718.html Tesla robotaxi fleet use the same sensors and basically the same software as the cars that are sold to consumers. They have begun to drive around without a...

Mercedes level 3 is limited to <40 mph. Not much to brag about. Also there doesn't seem to be much difference between a level 2 and level 3. https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/2022-05/Level-of-Automation-052522-tag.pdf base on this, Tesla's system really sounds more like level 3...

Tesla FSD is already safer than the average driver. The industry is moving toward camera only for autonomous driving. It's looking like Tesla will win this round of the VHS vs Betamax war. If you haven't experience FSD first hand, I recommend that you get a test drive at a tesla center...

EVs do use federal roads, it's only fair that we contribute to the upkeep of said roads.

really crazy to see how much you have to turn the steering wheel to keep the car from spinning.
