    The traffic splitting when queueing is to leave the middle free for emergency vehicles. A standard thing in Austria and Germany.

      In Australia when there is traffic, we get as close as we can to other cars so they can hear us when we yell profanities at them.

    28:50 Yes, it's an emergency corridor. Leftmost lane goes as much to the left as possible and every other lane goes as far right as possible.

      And if you want to be restrained to public transport for a few months you take this lane to get ahead faster...

    The display is dim because ur headlights are on. You can just put them in auto and will automatically turn on when it's dark

    I just completed a 6,000 mile US road trip in my 2021 Model 3 SR+
    Over 13 days of driving (July 10 through July 31, 2022, with time in Kentucky) from Sacramento CA to Louisville KY and back (with numerous side trips), I drove nearly half what I drive in a year.
    The final analysis: Wow. This is definitely a road warrior vehicle, despite so-called “conventional wisdom.”
    I am still plugging in metrics and numbers, but I estimate about 60 charging stops. In all those stops, I only had ONE 5 minute wait, at Glenwood Springs, CO. One. 5 minutes. I’ve waited longer in a grocery store line.
    I drove through and charged in major cities (LA, Amarillo, OK City, Little Rock, Memphis, Nashville, St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver, Salt Lake City) and countless small towns and wide spots in the road. Typically, I was either the only one there or one of two Teslas. My typical stop was 20-25 minutes. Enough time to have a short walk about, use the bathroom, grab a bottle of water, and then get back on the road (the breaks, and auto pilot, assured I’d be rested and relaxed after hours of travel).
    Weekdays, weekends, rush hour, nighttime, huge supercharger (50+) or small (4), interstate or blue highway… I drove and charged through them all. No cherry picking.
    ~60 superchargers. 6,000 miles. 13 days of driving. In July 2022. One wait. 5 minutes.
    I can’t speak for others. But a complete success in my book.

    I lived in China from 2017-2021 and i do miss the Chinese EVs. SO many different options from both domestic and international companies. They had some great things going on in the market.

      I’m in China now. Was waiting at traffic light literally one hour ago in my ID.3, and noticed a Lincoln Zephyr left to me. Remembering it as a stunning new model from Shanghai Auto Show (which I visited) last year, what strike me was how - “regular” (bland was the word that was about to slip away, but that was not the case) - it looked in real life compared to a freshly delivered Nio ET7 waiting behind it. Now, the Zephyr is a still a very good looking car, but it’s hilarious that in just one year it had lost its edge design-wise in the sea of ultra stiff Chinese competitions.
      It’s a fun time to car spot in China today. You always run into something unknown as new models are hitting the road every other day that our knowledge is constantly rendered obsolete.

    30:50 It's the Federal Police. They set up these checkpoints along parts of the border to Austria and Czech Republic in 2015 when refugees started to illegaly cross the border. By EU laws refugees have to apply for asylum in the first EU state they reach, but states in the south such as Greece and Italy were overstrained with thousands of refugees every day. When the refugees saw that there is no future for them in Greece and Italy they decided to go north and try to get asylum in Germany, Denmark or Sweden instead. All these three countries quickly set up checkpoints at their borders and Germany and Denmark still have them to this day.

    I really would love to convert my US Model 3 with amber turn signals! I'm in Germany quite a bit I wonder if I purchased a replacement set of rear lights and switched out my US ones they'd work or is software controlled?

    The CCS is sideways because the Chinese GB system is more like old Leaf where you would have the Chademo and a type 2 side by side. Chinese TESLAs also have two sockets under the cover. In China it is a roadtrip car because they have charging everywhere plus any car with charging over 90kW is above entry level. In China 80kW charging is standard on the more affordable vehicles. Charging speed goes up with price.

    Kyle, in Europe and regarding the BMW with M badge it doesn't mean it's a M car. It means it has the M line version which is an official cosmetic upgrade. Same happens with AMG line. Example I own ecoupe 250cdi amg line. Meaning bigger wheels, body kit and few interior beautification.

    maybe you should compare a Chevrolet with a Rolls Royce and then you can joke about the American car for once. What were you thinking comparing the Model X with a cheap EV? And is it necessary to say that the autopilot and speed of the Model X is better? I guess we kind of expected that already.

    Here in the UK, if our car starts telling us to "keep looking forward." We'd give it 2 fingers, tell it to eff off. And then put tape over the camera. That is absolutely ridiculous and far too invasive.
