In any event, I only responded after reacting to the word "delusional" about a contrary opinion. I have no interest in ADAS and will special order to avoid as much of it as possible.

And stopping at stop light(not sure about stop sign) also currently available with DAP+. Maybe iDrive 8 release will see extra features that go beyond DAP+(will see). https://www.bmwblog.com/2020/09/24/n...ruise-control/ |

BMW has traffic sign recognition and also adaptive regeneration and braking that is tied to GPS location. GM Cruise is stellar and you should read up on them. BMW has auto emergency corridor. It won't come to the US but it will pull to the side of the road for emergency vehicles to pass. Both GM and BMW are absolutely as good as Tesla and use additional sensors besides cameras. Tesla has a problem with emergency vehicle in bad weather. I have worked with multiple companies on ADAS and ASIL compliance for over five years. Part of that was working on processors that support lockstep execution and fault tolerance. I have been trained by Exida and TUV and have been certified. I know what's what in automotive safety. Not currently what I am doing but I stopped doing that earlier this year.

Right now freeway only is what I trust with ADAS. I don't care what Tesla calls it. There is nothing out there that does not require you hands to be on the wheel.
The "trolly problem" is real. Research it. Waymo and a couple of others have "self driving" taxis and delivery vehicles and they have been granted permits for specific functionality where a driver does not have to have their hands on the wheel. At least in California and Arizona. But a driver still must be in the car to take control. Tesla is behind Waymo. We can debate ADAS and ASIL (ISO26262) but we must all agree that Tesla is L2 ADAS and so it BMW and Cruise. If we can't agree to that as reality then there is nothing to debate. Everyone that likes Tesla FSD/Auto Pilot, repeat after me. Tesla is L2 ADAS and nothing more.

Maybe it's cause others only work on freeways… Waymo does work on streets but it has 500lbs of boxes/stuff inside/on top of the vehicle. What other me normal looking car can do "self driving" like Tesla? Also just the amount of data Tesla can collect should be 100s times more than any other manufacturer, so seems like they should be able to handle edge cases much better |

The reason why Teslas ADAS seem to be better is that let it do more (take more risk) BMW or any major car company just cant risk it.

One option may be to move learning onto the car but the power profile(plus extra weight) will drain the battery and range like crazy. So the practical solution right now is similar to Cruise, which is fixed hwy topology(no need to relearn) and incremental real-time learn + infer. I think that is quite reasonable with current system capabilities. But obviously Tesla cannot tell u that or else that cannot overcharge $10k for their L2 ADAS. |

That 500lbs of stuff is redundancy and sensors. The fact that Tesla is a vision only system with no redundant sensors means it can never be FSD. Cruise is only mapped highways and some major streets. They use pre mapped data. You can remove you hands with super cruise. They have redundancy that Tesla does not have. Cruise is hands free where FSD is not. FSD requires you always keep your hands on the wheel. Cruise is L2+. A system that requires hands is L2. BMW supports auto pull over for emergency vehicles, GPS based ADAS awareness, realtime updates, stop sign/light awareness, adaptive cruise and braking, etc It's L2. Tesla takes risks that would tank BMW and GM. Can you imagine GM or BMW cars running into emergency vehicles? That is exactly what a few Tesla's did. Tesla pushed an update and failed to notify NHTSA. Turn out since Tesla can push OTA updates they fail to notify when there shod be a recall and just push updates. Tesla plays fast an loose with driver safety.

Like you said the weight and power are.prohibative. Also adaptive algorithms in a realtime are a bad idea. Cruise, BMW and others have a more conservative approach that is less likely to kill or injure. MobilEye has a fully redundant system of processor and system input. Continental does also. There has been some consolidation in the area and I expect more in the next couple of years. MobilEye is Intel. Nvidia has a platform. Cruise is owned by GM. Continental is contracting for others to do chip development. We aren't to the level of FSD in regular passenger cars. It's still specialized with big boxes on top of cars and very few licenses granted in very specific areas for FSD. The leaders are Cruise and Waymo. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnb...less-cars.html

It talks about the integrated braking system of the cars and how it works. Also talks about the motor which lead in tech because they use induction/electromagnet where others are still using rare earth. There is a lot more to tech than ADAS. https://www.popsci.com/technology/bmw-ix-bmw-i4-review/

Range: average weekly mileage is less than 300 miles and most trips are well covered by the range of most new EVs including the i4. Self driving: well if you really want self-driving, I guess Tesla are a little ahead here but 7 or 8 years ahead as I've seen suggested on this tread, no way, maybe a year or two, but I'm not sure it's an area other manufacturers are as focus on as Tesla seem to be. Personally if I wanted self-driving I'd call a taxi. Tesla fast charging stations: They don't really exist here, Tesla has 7(?) superchargers in the country. I do all my charging at home, but if I do need to charge elsewhere there are plenty of 3rd party options. |

Tesla does use AC induction motor, is that the same a BMW's induction motor?

I just can't get pass the point that the i4m is heavier, slower, less range, more expensive than the M3P
I'll give you the whole quality thing, and the exterior looks the best of any EV but I would expect the BMW to be quicker and above all, lighter than the Tesla if this is supposed to be the ultimate driving machine : I'm ok with the premium if it performs better |

All OEMs have fatalities in their products. But, some real world events with Tesla owners who are no longer with us have raised other new concerns ranging from post-impact fires difficult to control to crashes traced to AutoPilot usage. How other entering OEMs do in IIHS testing remains to be seen, but all the OEMs know what they are expected to achieve by the marketplace. All things being equal, mass is beneficial.

https://insideevs.com/news/461811/vi...tor-explained/ But I'm trying to point out the Tesla isn't as far ahead as everyone thinks. Because they label/mislabel FSD and Auto Pilot the assumption is that they lead.
