The immersive entertainment section better include a built in ps6. Would be such a missed opportunity.

Car has an ok look. The cameras+lidar on top are a bit silly.


I really love the widescreen screen on the inside and the media bar on the outside. Those are new and cool. Everything else just looks like a standard tesla.

Didn't see a range anywhere.

i can't be the only one that thinks most of the "tech" is just overpriced BS.  

like i literally don't want my car door to open just because i'm in proximity of the car.  a door handle is not a problem that needs solving but i walk past my car with no intention of getting in my car probably at least 100 times a week.   taking the garbage in/out.   mowing the lawn.  walking my kids to school.  walks on my lunch break.   what a F'ing nuisance to automat that.  it literally makes life worse...

Yeah a lot of the tech these new cars try to pack in are gimmicky crud that isn't necessary. That's why I personally like Tesla EV's the best just for the minimalist style of them.  Well except cybertruck, that's a hot mess of a truck.

It is to decrease air resistance. Almost all electric cars don't have regular door handles.

Old tesla ones pop in and out, cybertruck has a button by the window, and I guess this has nothing?

It better have other options. Like at least pair it with voice or touch so as you said, it doesn't open every time you walk by.

Honda 0 saloon concept looks weird, but I wish the Sony car was more like it.
