Run it on only the best juice available mate. Getting a remap on it to get dem pops.Whats the exhaust sound like mate?
Run it on vpower?
Many pops and bangs?

It's the little things like this that make it such a nice thing to own. No other manufacturer does anything like this that works so seamlessly.

Probably deserved itImagine that awkward moment when you summon it and it rocks up with a dead cyclist pinned to the bonnet.
It's just for getting out of tight spaces really.How does summon work? Does it just roll forward a bit to you or will it actually travel a considerable distance to pick you up?
This is properly cool.
Need a video of it switching lanes by itself.
Shame about the warning coming on (you have to touch the wheel every few minutes when using autopilot) but you can sort of see the car changing lanes.
He posted one?
Legit link to the story? One that proves car/Tesla at fault?One killed a guy in the US didn't it? Drove him under a truck? Impressive, but not sure the technology is mature enough to be encouraging people to let go of the wheel yet, especially with the number of mongs on the road.
They do seem to be chucking a lot of free stuff at people at the moment, but I suspect that will disappear as they become more established and the drive for profit takes over. They are upsetting the old guard though and that's no bad thing. The car industry is so stuck in its ways it's unbelievable.

It depends on the conditions. Lane changing really is very 'over sensitive'. If you are in the middle of 3 lanes overtaking a lorry and want to pull in straight away, it will ask to hold the wheel. If you wait a few seconds and the lorry is no longer visible to the cars sensors, it will do it automatically.Can it totally change by itself now? Last time I read about it you had to signal and then grip the wheel for it to manourver (basically as you showed in your video) but you described it as if it can do it totally solo now.
That is 100% the drivers fault. Autopilot is nothing more than an aid assist.

People try to show that it can drive itself etc when in reality it's just a slightly more advanced cruise control.
It didn't kill anyone. It's sold as a driver aid. You're meant to watch the road when it's active, not go to sleep.

it makes me question whether the tech is r****d proof yet.

Cars in general aren’t r****d proof yet to be fair.
I think that’s what Tesla is aiming for. But the technology to actually remove the retards from the equation is a while away.
Quite. The problem with this is that it is just another way that the driver can pay less attention. While he should focus on the road ahead and be ready to take control, how many mongs are going to pay next to no attention and mess with the iPad thing? Calling it Autopilot probably wasn't the best idea really, as it just gives people a false sense of security about it's abilities.
The car industry is in a strange place I think. They harp on relentlessly about safety, but keep introducing technology that suggests that you don't need to pay attention and then add big touch screens that make it even easier to become distracted.
Progress is a funny old thing.
Of course. I meant it only in jest.The technology will undoubtedly become more widespread, not that wealth guarantees mad skills of course.
Once they're being driven by make-up applying, ditzy women and oblivious middle aged folk, carnage is almost guaranteed.
That's it. Features like this are great for responsible drivers. The problem is, most drivers are just not even close to responsible. If they were as common as a Fiesta, I do have to wonder how many incidents there would be.
Interesting times anyway.
