Not really, since most of the European population don’t live in the cores of cities and overwhelmingly drive (over 80% share of passenger-km in the EU-28).

Ubisoft’s other recent big game, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is filled with a lot of content OOTB and also has seen a lot of improvements to the base game through free patches so hopefully they follow the same path here.

Yeah, it’s pretty much all of everything.

Which will add drag.

Solar Impulse shows how practically useless solar panels are for flight. Panels on it covered an area almost as large as the wing area of the Boeing 767 but only had peak production of 66 kW.

There’s more to the side pole impact test than how stiff the body is. Tesla likes to compare themselves to Volvo yet if you look at the NHTSA technical documents for the test, the comparable Volvo is safer in the side pole test.

Good point, I’d though as well that a new vehicle needed to pass NHTSA testing, and those results would be available shortly after launch. The Model X results were available about 9.5 months after launch so for a higher volume model, I’m not sure what the holdup is.

Well, the fortunate thing for Tesla is that they’re also behind schedule in crash testing. Despite being officially “available” for nearly a year, crash test results still aren’t available for NHTSA, let alone IIHS.

Japan doesn’t need a free trade agreement, or a political union with the USA to build significant portions of the Boeing 787, or export over a million cars.

Actually based on global sales, America (and Canada) just happened to discover how great CUVs are first. China already buys more CUVs than North America and the long stagnant European car market is growing again thanks to massive growth in CUVs.

“The only argument for getting a CUV over a minivan is that you can’t handle slowly devolving into your mother/father and accepting your descent into proper parenthood.”

Then they removed the sensor for AP2 and spent the last year re-developing it.

Automatic rain-sensing wipers only got enabled on the S and X yesterday (and it’s still only in beta mode). Does the 3 even have it yet.

Of course, Tesla QC being what it is, its software updates have also caused new bugs to emerge.

I have that setup currently and after a little bit of time, you can use it without looking at it. The buttons are in the typical PRND order and have different shapes and feel. The electronic parking brake button works like a mini version of a manual parking brake and is located at the same spot.

“Yet while it cut the 17-hour flight from New York to London down to seven”

I don’t think the Netherlands has any plans anymore for a ban in 2025. The legislation wasn’t passed by their Senate and never became law, and the party behind it was annihilated in the most recent elections so the issue may not even be brought up again.

You were at St Maarten two weeks after it got hit by Irma and comparing it to PR which is only 8 days after Maria.

Doubtful, no ghostwriter would dare make so many promises that aren’t met.

“there have been major UI and drivetrain changes”
