    Autonomous Car Progress

    That ain’t true. One of the level 4 requirement is automation can only occur in pre-determined condition (it’s specifically stated inside the SAE-J3016 document). CA DMV also specifically mentioned that in its testing permit- 227.02.B.2 adapting SAE-J3016

    Autonomous Car Progress

    I stand corrected on the authorizing agency. But you misunderstood the legal requirement comment. Per SAE-J3616- geo fencing is required to gain certification of L4. CA adapted the same requirement of geo fencing/ sand box. As of today- Waymo does not have state wide commercial operation...

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    Actually no. Elon is CEO of Tesla- his comment on FSD does have liability. One of the main reason why both civil and criminal case on FSD is progressing.

    Autonomous Car Progress

    I think tesla fan totally misunderstood how certification works for self driving permit. 1. In US because there is no federal laws in self driving. All of their permitting and granting of operating license is done at city/state level. 2. For Waymo to get into particular city- it has to...

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    Tesla legal already stated FSD is a failure in court. What else is needed to prove that Tesla was on the wrong path from day one. https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2022-12-08/tesla-lawsuit-full-self-driving-technology-failure-not-fraud?_amp=true In addition- Let me clarify how self...

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    Geofencing is actually required by law. It’s not technical limitation. Per regulation- all L4 operator needs to demonstrate reliability of it system with in area of operation during testing. Only hitting the threshold before license for operation can be granted.

    Rivian Deliveries Pushed to 2022

    To be fair. It's not easy to build a car or truck right off the bat. Tesla was also hand building cars before. I wouldn't throw company under the bus for that. I actually think more blame should be placed on financial market. The main reason that I jumped into this thread is more on how...

    Rivian Deliveries Pushed to 2022

    So true. Even with hard data :) fan boy will always be fan boy. what makes you think you are the only expert here? Having been now involved in Self driving and actual EV industry for probably way much longer on EE architecture and entire HW/SW stack. I have never been impressed by what comes...

    Rivian Deliveries Pushed to 2022

    Lucid actually delivered car to paying customers, whether you like it or not. 800v architecture is also one of the leading edge one. The fact EPA rating verified the efficiency is already more proof then any of the startup out there. Scam? Not when they have actual proof. Problem- every new...

    Rivian Deliveries Pushed to 2022

    I personally think Lucid is far more solid than rivian. Have it occurred to you why Rivian Mpge is in such a low range? Why would Ford walk away? It’s not like Ford is front running in EV tech and self driving platform. Morgan Stanley underwritten the Rivian IPO so it’s going out of its way...

    Rivian delayed again (now Sep for R1T, 2 month additional delay)

    i really think you need to do more fact finding. As stated before I work in the Full Driving field up to my retirement 4 months ago. I am also likely returning in the field in near future because I am pissing off my wife at home. Tesla has nothing on the FSD side. It will always remain a L2+...

    Rivian delayed again (now Sep for R1T, 2 month additional delay)

    Tesla was tiny too. Remember that too. Rivian doesn’t need retail to survive. Amazon backing in both funding and order already gave Rivian a strong base. Tesla autopilot and FSD is an liability not a selling point if Elon keeps on trying to over promise. NHTSA and FTC is just beginning...

    Lucid Air efficiency numbers

    to be fair in both my kid model Y and my departed model S- when I am nearing triple digit- the Y got just under 160 miles range and S wasn’t much better at 180-190. Your point? Lucid is more efficient that is a fact soon.

    Model 3 braking failure reproduced with video

    1. Bosch does not allow any automotive OEM to re-write or touch any of the software related to the brakes and ibooster. So that claim is totally false. Tesla can only modify how it sends command to the brake (interface). 2. ESC is totally different concept here. It’s triggered by yaw...

    Tesla testing self driving in Arizona and Texas, not so much CA

    the problem is people doesn’t bother to read actual data. Geofencing is required for level 4. Per both SAE standard and CA/AZ rule. That was the main reason CA DMV went after Elon and Tesla last October. Because Tesla does not have permit to test Self Driving function. Tesla legal formally...
