Lol.Just to round this out about the Tesla “tech” they fall short compared to other driver assistance tech from Legacy automakers including BMW
Ford’s BlueCruise Remains CR’s Top-Rated Active Driving Assistance System - Consumer Reports
Consumer Reports reviews and ranks active driving assistance systems, including Ford BlueCruise, General Motors Super Cruise, and Tesla Autopilot.www.consumerreports.org
Lol.
In “Reality”, that CR review essentially dropped Tesla off the list, because they believe Autopilot hasn’t changed since it came out…. Lol.
They also said Tesla, as well as others didn’t rank well, because they don’t have collaborative steering.
That feature is nice for sure, but Tesla has so much more tech going for it, they they don’t want to include.
No mention that Tesla also works on city streets, not JUST highways.
It’s also well known that Consumer Reports is biased. Unlike any “Unbiased” review I’ve ever seen or read, they will always feel Tesla is inferior. They will find a reason to not put them on top.
The first time around, in 2020, they rated Tesla second, not because the system wasn’t better, but because it didn’t monitor the eyes of the driver, only the steering wheel.
Their review in my eyes is useless. As is any review with obvious bias.
Test drive these systems, and make your own unbiased decision.
This:I can buy a Tesla and drive on Autopilot on city streets now?
As far as “bias” anything that is ever said against Tesla has always been regarded as “bias” Tesla is the perfect car which is why Musk keeps taking features away and we just keep coming up with excuses on how it became “better”
CR gave Tesla a 9/10 in performance, they got dinged on other things that brought their score down, not to mention the lack is sensors now, but that’s just “bias”
Ah. The same old exaggerated go to that is so old now. (Your quote): “Anything that is said against Tesla is always regarded as a bias”. Hyperbole at its finest. ..As far as “bias” anything that is ever said against Tesla has always been regarded as “bias” Tesla is the perfect car which is why Musk keeps taking features away and we just keep coming up with excuses on how it became “better”
Speaking of technology, technically speaking, I don't think BMW can offer much more than a Camry or Accord do these days.
You are wrong. In both my BMWs, I can check the surrounding from my phone app (maybe not a video, but immediate live photos) that are also put in a 3D 360 surround view for me, plus individual photos from all 4 camera whenever I want.Speaking of technology, technically speaking, I don't think BMW can offer much more than a Camry or Accord do these days.
I don't think you can see the car surroundings on your phone from anywhere with any car other than Tesla. And with no other car you will get that feature for free 4 years into the ownership. ... but in some cars you can get a bill if you want to warm your butt in winter.
Thank you. This particular response, specifically from an X7 BMW user switching to Tesla, gives me the feedback that is mostly relevant to my original post. If the Ride and Comfort is superior in the BMW X7. I guess there is no reason whatsodver for me to switch to Tesla. Ride and Comfort are the two most important feature to me in any car I buy. I can not compromise on those two key features for anything else, not to mention when it all comes with superior luxury.
I had the X for a ride, it was really bad (I mean, bad compared to whatever baseline I have in mind). I was just hopping that the CyberTruck is going to offer something different based in any leaks or rumors that the members might be aware of.
I am kind of suspicious... have you actually ... anyway ... IMHO, and based on the opinion of plenty, BMW is behind on luxury and comfort and (now) ride compared to MB and Porsche.
ABSOLUTELY agree!
