And this is precisely why I find the SAE level definitions useless for an ordinary person considering whether or not to buy a car. I'm not sure what purpose they do serve since they establish standards that have minimal relation to what the car can actually do in the real world. You could buy a car that's Level 4 and find out that it's only autonomous on a three-mile stretch of one county road in East Texas. That's a ridiculous extreme, but the point is that since L4 can have limited ODD, you don't know anything from the fact that the car is Level 4 unless you know the precise ODD.
As for consulting the dealership, as you suggested in an earlier post, the sales staff at dealerships are often completely ignorant of the capabilities of the cars they sell. When I bought my Prius, pretty much everything the salesman told me about the car was wrong. I still thought it was an excellent car, but the salesman didn't know jack spit about how it worked or what it would do. I eventually learned about the car from a chat board dedicated to that particular car.
When the Chevy Volt came out I was curious. I drove my Roadster to the Chevy dealership, told the salesman I was not in the market for a car but was interested in knowing about the Volt just out of curiosity. He let me drive the demo and we talked at length about the car. Much of what he told me was just plain wrong, as I learned later.
One of the great things about Tesla is that in TMC we have a place where we can find reliable information. When they release a new feature i can come here to learn what it actually does and whether it works as expected for everybody, nobody, or some number in between, with details. If Chevy came out with a car claimed to be Level 4 I don't know where I'd go for reliable information. Definitely not the dealership.
