Gravity Owner AMA - 4/5/25, 12PM-2PM PT

[hydbob]

We are nice enough to have an owner volunteer to do an AMA about their ownership experience with the Gravity so far.

Please post a question but also if your question has been asked, please vote it up so the most sought after questions are at the top of the list.

Anything off topic or not a question will be deleted. Keep this organized!

Very underrated comment/suggestion here. My current Audi has this feature and I use it almost exclusively to open AND close the trunk. My previous car (BMW M4) also had this feature to open the trunk.

I was hoping the Gravity would have this feature (though I'm pretty sure it won't). That being said, (and please correct me if I'm wrong)...but I believe I read a while back that Tesla added this as a new feature via a software update...which means maybe it could be developed--though tbh I'm not sure exactly what hardware sensors Audi and Tesla use for this feature and if that's already in place in the Gravity.

Not to be 'that' guy...
My wife has had one other car and never used the foot swipe feature. Her current car also has that feature but you need to have the fob with you. Oh yeah, she never uses that feature on this car either (2024 Subaru Outback). Some features are important to most and not for some.

The Tesla feature (added vis SW update) on my Model X doesn't require swiping feet under the bumper. You simply approach the trunk or frunk with your phone in your pocket, stand there for a few seconds, then the car beeps a few times, and either the frunk or trunk opens (depending on which one you're standing next to). And, of course, the frunk on every Tesla except the Cyber Truck is manually actuated, so on those cars, the frunk simply unlatches so it can be manually opened. I only use my frunk for long trips when I need to carry more gear than the car's interior volume will hold. Having said that, if it were a *power* opening and closing frunk, I might use it more often day-to-day. The fact there's no exterior button for the frunk on the Gravity doesn't bother me at all -- I'm thrilled it's power actuated, given the fully manual experience I'll be coming from.

Coming from Teslas the topic I care about most is ADAS, and so far I haven't seen one word about the state of that system in the Gravity -- not just here but anywhere. Does any driver assist even work yet?

Thank you Annie for doing this AMA! I wonder if you could take a couple more rear measurements as I have a very specific hauling use case and I’ve been having trouble reaching a final answer
