I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't think any major manufacturer would release it if that's the case.
I can't imagine the customer response to a self-driving system they can only turn on once a year would be good.
Seems like an obvious PR/Marketing nightmare.
- randmeerkat 6y agoTo be fair, one would also think that releasing a self-driving system that drives into the back of a semi at speed would be a PR/Marketing nightmare, but it hasn’t slowed Tesla down. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2019/05/feds-autopilot-was-active-during-deadly-march-tesla-crash/ https://arstechnica.com/cars/2019/05/feds-autopilot-was-acti...
