Perhaps, but depending on the vehicle, you're giving up quite a bit:
Parking and proximity LIDAR/sensors
3d camera view
CarPlay/Android Auto
Lack of tactile controls (even Tesla has admitted removing the stalk was a mistake)
The ability to exit your vehicle if there's a power system failure
etc
- lotsofpulp 1y agoOn the other hand, I paid $41k for a 2024 all wheel drive 3 row (5 adults + 2 kids) Model Y. That saved me $20k+ compared to alternatives. > 3d camera view The illustrated overhead view is sufficient that I do not miss a 3D camera view. >The ability to exit your vehicle if there's a power system failure This is not true, at least in my 2024 Model Y. Not having carplay/android auto sucks, but I haven’t missed it enough. And there are enough tactile controls, in my model at least, that it hasn’t been an issue. All in all, I wouldn’t pay $60k for a Tesla, but sign me up @ $41k.
- speedgoose 1y agoFair enough for some of the points. My tesla is older so it has good controls, stalks, and parking sensors still. I can also exit the vehicle with a mechanical switch. I personally don't really miss the fisher-price designed CarPlay (never tried Android auto). It's alright and often better than the car manufacturer infotainment, but it's also not very good. You can't even pinch to zoom the map for example.
