Sorry to hear that, hope they take care of you.

Since you already have the batteries, you might as well get a Gravity.

I thought so too, but was surprised when I saw that the midsized neue iX3 is targeted for 400 mile EPA range and has demonstrated 400kW max charging power. That's a remarkable combination which is unmatched in a midsized vehicle.

I missed the Air's earliest days, buying my GT a year after the first Dreams shipped, and right around when UX2.0 arrived.

My eyes kept trying and failing to bring the images into focus on my Gravity test drive. I'm really hoping for improvement by OTA. If it's baked into hardware, yikes. But either way, I guess they're better than the nonexistent video in some other EVs.

It's a reasonable direction IMO, and ordinarily I'd be of the same mind. But our Volvo XC40 EV has been so good to own and drive for the last four years, without any direct competition to date in the compact SUV form factor. We put 3x more miles on it per year than our Air as it is more often...

Same here. BMW has also mentioned 400kW peak charging speed. Hope it looks OK. Also there will be more details on the Cayenne EV by the end of the year, and maybe a refreshed Polestar 3 with native 800V NACS and lidar. Each with strengths and weaknesses.

I think at least 30 moons!

I've appreciated your perspective on this, along with others'. So different from my life and experiences in urban California and kind of eye-opening.

About 225kW, sustained a long way into the charge. I started out on janky1 or 2-stall Chademo stations for my first two EVs, then jumped to Superchargers for 2018-2021. Plentiful, easy, and "just worked", night and day better. Then dropped back down to janky 4-stall EA stations for our fourth...

Assuming you've tried pushing the Android Auto icon on the car's connectivity screen: Turn the car's Bluetooth off and back on if that doesn't work, reboot the infotainment using the steering wheel buttons If that doesn't work, plug the phone into the car with a USB cable

After watching a Project Farm comparison video, I bought a bottle of Griot’s Garage Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax. it's easy to apply and durable, though the application instructions do come close to those on the wipe-on pure ceramic products.

Please let us know what range you see for the round trip!

Were you seeing a bright reflection from the HUD, or from the frame surrounding the dark hole?

Our 2021 Volvo, that we bought at the same time as our Air, also has an underperforming CPU. At times it makes the infotainment literally unusable. I'd be thrilled if Volvo offered a chance to upgrade it to the 2025 version as Lucid did, but they haven't stepped up.
