It was 6.0 when the walkthrough happened. It was delivered to me on Dec. 23rd.
As far as I can tell, the two things that she got wrong were how the "auto" setting in the climate control worked (which I corrected her on the spot), and that she called the temperature sensor above the USB port a speaker (which I couldn't correct her, because I didn't know what it was). She also mentioned that I had to manually choose 10-12 Amps if I plug in the 110 V plug. I know I don't have to do it, but I'm not sure if older versions of the OS required it. If not, then she got that wrong, too.
Naturally I couldn't resist watching it and listing mistakes. I have to say first that i realize that going through the entire car while being recorded is a difficult gig and I would probably not do as good a job if i had to do it - overall she did a pretty good job and definitely had a lot of enthusiasm. That being said, here is my list;
- With regard to the 110V point, I bought my first car about a year ago and it was capable of adapting. I'm not sure where this comes from but it isn't accurate now.
- When she was talking about the charge port door and how you would have to open it from the car (if you weren't at a supercharger or using an HPWC) she missed the fact that there is now a feature where you can push and hold the fob trunk button for 2 seconds to open the charge port
- There were a couple of options that were greyed out. Normally this happens if the car is either not in park, or off. I'm pretty sure the slip start option is one of these. Not sure about the service mode as I don't have my car right now.
- Creep mode. She described it as working when you take your foot of the gas. That might have been a slip of the tongue but basically it allows the car to move when you take your foot off the brake.
- She described regeneration as taking the forward momentum of the car and putting it back into the brakes. Might have been another tongue slip and possibly she meant battery.
- Range mode - she described as going on a long long trip. Nothing necessarily wrong with that but increasingly I think we will be using this wherever efficiency is important. (OK that's nit picky)
- For the energy saving "Always Connected" option she suggested that you could not connect to your mobile device unless this is ticked. My understanding is that this keeps the connection even in energy savings mode (presumably sacrificing some energy savings) whereas if it is not ticked, you can still connect but you have to wait for the car to wake up. I might be wrong about this - again I don't have my car right now.
- The "e-brake" discussion was interesting. My impression of this option is that you can turn off the car even when you're sitting in it - i.e. without getting out of the seat and leaving the car. She suggested that if you want to leave the car but leave it on for someone still in the car, you would use this option. I'm thinking that this might allow you to turn it off and then touch the touch screen to turn on the music etc. and then you could leave the vehicle - essentially this just prevents the other person from having to touch the touch screen.
- I made a note about tow mode but I'm not sure why. Maybe I thought she should have mentioned it.
