VW Is Putting Buttons Back in Cars Because People Complained Enough
  • For the driver, you can access it elsewhere. But to deal with the climate, you then have to go into the touchscreen menu and mess around rather than just turning a dial. The volume is less of an issue as the driver, the volume is on the steering wheel. But the passenger can't turn down the volume, etc. I love the id4, planning on driving it into the ground, but buttons for functions like that would be better.

  • 1.8 Million Barrels of Oil a Day Avoided from Electric Vehicles
  • Yeah which is always weird. How many of those people weren't just riding normal bikes before vs downsizing from a car. I'm on my 3rd EV and would love to bike if it were an option where I live, but if I went with a bike, I'd just be replacing another EV.

  • Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says
  • It's great. The touchscreen software isn't great and there's a few annoying interface things, but it's great otherwise. Great to drive, tight turning radius, great pickup, efficient on the highway, no real complaints. The ioniq five was my other choice also, but I leased, and they didn't pass the tax rebate back to the customer when leasing, so I went with the id4

  • Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says
  • yeah, everything is specific to use case, but there's no real change in behavior with most of the new evs - probably the biggest barrier is city/apartment living with charging infrastructure being dogshit. If you have a garage, or dedicated parking, it's a no brainer at this point.

  • I was an early tesla fanboy and always wanted one, I finally have my finances in a place where a new car isn't an awful decision and went with the ID4 just so I didn't have to deal with that guy in any way shape or form.

  • Don't overstate 1.5 degrees C threat, new IPCC head says
  • I have not seen a single piece of evidence that we're going to do anything about climate change unless we come up with some magical solution that somehow: doesn't upset the status quo and also makes existing rich people even more rich.
