Zero pricing given. Bit of a let down.

Slightly worried they mentioned a chip set for the car.

Do car companies normally mention what chips they are using ? Would not like the car to stall or lag during driving.

Also what the hell is the point having a top speed of anything above the max speed limit. Other than track days you will never see it. On that note. Don't give me a car with a speedometer that goes higher than 150. I don't ever need to see that. I need to see my speed at 20 30 and incremental numbers. Stupid

China has had EVs for awile. There are so many options that chipsets have become a customer demand. No one wants a laggy UI and they want enough power to run apps.

Similar to cell phones and laptops.

Do you really need apps to run ?

Other than Google maps or Spotify. What apps are you running?

A chip set that will be obsolete in less than a year and stop getting security updates after a few years ?

What happens when your os no longer allowed you to download apps as it's too old ?

This doesn't seem to be necessary.

A screen that I can cast to. Sure. Spotify and maps. Sure. Other than that. Seems like a bad idea.

It's necessary in China. It's a great idea in China. Why?

Me personally I just like the ability to side load apps or download from Google store.

But what apps ? What are you sideloading?
