When did the old model become irrelevant, I had thought it was still a very good EV.

@WhichEV 6 месяцев назад

It is, but it has been overshadowed by the Model Y in terms of sales and interest.

Wish they would relent and give people a hud option. And I dont like the removal of the indicator stalk. Sometimes a physical control is the easier control. Least they ditched the (w)yoke steering wheel.

@aleckermit 4 месяца назад

TBH the yoke doesn't make much sense without steer by wire. Even the Model S jumped the gun implementing it and the Cybertruck (which does have steer by wire) uses a style between yoke and circle which I think it is the best solution.

@ It wouldn't surprise me if it's not going to be optional on the LR. The longer range / lower max speed / different wheel could be the reason.

@alastairhatt360 2 месяца назад

The indicators are very easy to use and remember. I drove an M3 for the first time last week and was using this with no issues within 10 minutes and I have been driving cars and trucks for 40 years with stalks. People are over thinking this function and it becomes second nature very quickly.

@WhichEV 2 месяца назад

We got used to it too but some people really hate it. BMW drivers strangely don't see the problem.

@Petelmrg 6 месяцев назад

I like my M3 BECAUSE it is a saloon; hatchbacks are a pain for everyday use as you freeze everyone to death when you've got the tailgate open; I started driving when ice cars still had chokes and no indicators, I'm sure I'll soon adapt to a slightly different indicator control.

@WhichEV 6 месяцев назад

It just makes all that massive boot space harder to use. We are speaking here from the experience of taking kids to and from university in a Model 3. LOADS of space, but you can't always put things in it because the boot door is narrow. There's space in the back for a bike, but you can't get it in... actually just had a brainwave about that. ;)

I predict there’ll be a lot of TESLA, leaving roundabouts without indicating. Seriously, I really wonder why Tesla can’t make the car indicate automatically when using the navigation, as it knows where it turns?

@WhichEV 5 месяцев назад

Teslas are the new BMWs...

@mikapeltokorpi7671 6 месяцев назад

- nickel and diming various tech - interior has some good new features - facelift was a must, actually makes old Model 3 / Model Y look severely outdated (those are not selling even now) - with Tesla you can subtract 10% of range. - Cynertruck with sililar charging solution is apparently not charging that fast. "30% quieter" means -1 dB. 30% quieter?

@GDM22 6 месяцев назад

Great you like the look of the new one, I wonder how much of that is it just being new, severely outdated is a stretch given the comparatively minimal changes of the new model.

@mikapeltokorpi7671 6 месяцев назад

@@GDM22 I actually like the new front. The issue is in version HW 3.5. So this model will never have radars (but for parking). Or they have to redesign a bunch of stuff to get those working.

@gordoncrespo2045 6 месяцев назад

I find it amusing that folks can’t understand how much better a stalkless design is. For gawds sake it will take at most 5-10 minutes to get use to it and also memorize how to turn on/off the turn indicates without having to look at the buttons. In five years all cars will have lost their stalks. They are about as necessary as an appendix.

@WhichEV 6 месяцев назад

You're American, right? You don't have roundabouts much. In the UK, they're all the over the place and you have to hit the indicators with the wheel turned. This isn't so easy with buttons on the wheel as it is with stalks.

@GDM22 6 месяцев назад

@fr3238 6 месяцев назад

A king needs stalks.

@WhichEV 6 месяцев назад

They do?

@ma6netho 6 месяцев назад

Yes, they will lose lots of sales by saving a fiew bucks dropping the stalks, i use the left one many times when shanging from high beam to low in the dark on narrow road to see better meeting cars coming around the corner, and fiddling with the the screen shanging from going forward and reverse is a lot slower. Blinking out of roundabouts is very difficult with no stalk.
