[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Tesla up today on incentives for current owners. https://electrek.co/2025/04/25/tesla-tsla-brings-back-fsd-transfer-offers-2000-loyalty-discount-amid-demand-crisis/ This makes some sense since current owners like the car. Our in-laws just bought a new Lexus EV and it's not nearly as clean in terms of the software and design. They actually have a "power" button :lol: and lots of other buttons. You actually have to lock and unlock the car manually (which Tesla does through the app on your phone when you approach or leave the car which is super convenient). Very confusing set up on the Lexus, but of course the interior is nice. The Lexus still has a knob on the console to turn up volume. :lol: Tesla has everything on the steering wheel . . . so much better. It also has better range. So, no other EVs are not "better". [/quote] So if you forget you phone the car stays unlocked? My phone is often out in the car and usually charging. Keys stay in my purse the whole time and won’t be forgot. My 10 year old car locks when I walk away and unlocks when I approach. Knob control for volume is the gold standard. Touchscreen or WHEEL BUTTONS are sad compromise to save money. You’ll notice many companies are putting back volume knobs. Tactile controls that you can use with out looking, and aren’t moving around while you are trying to steer the car. A power button or other tactile command to engage the engine is a smart choice; it’s the arming command ready for the fire command sequence of driving. Read up on how Chekov actor died when his novel transmission shifter left his car in neutral. Somethings have been honed down to good design, rather than whiz bang change for changes sake. Or to save money, like the manual back door release on Teslas, what a death trap. [/quote]
