Autopilot really is just adaptive cruise control and lane centering. It can't change lanes by itself. It can't take an exit. It won't stop at an intersection. It can't turn corners. These things are blindingly obvious within a few minutes of use. Yes it's more slick than the cruise assist features on your typical Toyota, Subaru etc, but not dramatically so.
Some people argue that Tesla customers think they've been sold autonomy. I can't see how. Tesla goes to pains to make you aware of the $12k you would need to spend to get the system that "self drives". You are painfully aware of the $12k you didn't spend.
- jaktet 3y agoWhat’s confusing to me is I consider “autopilot” to be what happens when I press down on the stalk once, which doesn’t do lane centering and only enables adaptive cruise control. Reading the current marketing descriptions of the features (https://www.autopilotreview.com/tesla-autopilot-vs-enhanced-autopilot/#:~:text='Standard' https://www.autopilotreview.com/tesla-autopilot-vs-enhanced-... Autopilot – this was,and Navigate-on-Autopilot) doesn’t help. If you don’t have FSD beta purchased or enhanced autopilot purchased, does pressing down on the stalk twice enable lane centering?
