This decision makes sense, but also is effectively a sudden reversal of previous policy. I don't understand how businesses can plan when existing policies can be changed so quickly and in an almost retroactive way. As of today, the cit

IDK, I have a ten year old laptop that still does pretty well at those things. Its biggest issue is its terrible IO and slow HD, but those were its biggest issues when new too.

It isn't worth the complexity for the rare cases when it might be useful. Even if you live at the top of a mountain, the easier solution is to just not charge to 100% to account for your "free" energy gains when leaving.

I don't think the person you are replying to had a good plan, but solar definitely could offset the energy consumed by cars. The average car will only consume ~12KWh per day. Even a small 3-4KW system can do that. Yes, its an oversimpl

That was the vehicle I was referencing. I was saying that this vehicle would have been a joint effort if the partnership were still alive. I could see Mazda owning the small EV segment for Ford too.

I feel like in the old days, Mazda would have been the one to introduce a Maverick sized truck, and they likely would have been leading the way with electric. Its too bad that the Ford partnership fell apart.

Exactly, they replaced the separate buttons with a knob. Great that that physical controls might be needed, but this approach isn't better than the touchscreen. In some respects, its actually worse.

That's fair, and the limited charging speeds have been even more significant at times. This is one of the big downsides of the warranty being so weak, IMO.

Tesla has done that kind of things a number of times. In earlier Model S versions, you could get a software locked battery for less money. You could then pay to unlock the capacity. On the current Model 3 SR+, the rear seats are not heated,

One issue with Tesla's approach is that they do not have enough cameras to do this at every angle. Its going to be especially tough in parking lots, as they have very poor coverage of the road directly beneath them. Mobileye's cam

I have no idea what you are talking about here. Cars sometimes lose features between model years, or even during mid year refreshes. Tesla is no pioneer there.
