No touch screens, no telemetry, no cellular modems, no wifi, no apps, no subscriptions, no infotainment.

    I’m skeptical they’ll actually come with no telemetry or other forms of anti-features. The investors, like Bezos, will likely push for it. They have a new CEO, who comes from Amazon. There is a federal mandate for all US vehicles to come with driver monitoring technology starting in 2027.

      Yeah, I am skeptical about it too. We will have to wait and see I guess.

      I’m also wondering how they are going to deal with the requirement for all new cars after 2018 to have a backup camera/screen. Maybe it will just go through the tiny little screen behind the steering wheel?

      Edit: I just looked it up. Seems the backup camera will go through the instrument panel screen.
