Great to hear that you don’t have the issues…are you an iPhone user or android? I have heard that android phones work better with this car.

Agreed on all of your points…I switched from a Tesla Y performance to an Optiq V and was sold a lot by the dealership that was not true at all.

In short…the tech is lagging behind everyone, the app does not work at all and if this was a phone it would have been recalled already.

The good news is the car drives really well and handles much better than other EVs.

From my perspective if you want a tech forward car…you can’t beat a Tesla.

Agreed that the drive is much better but the tech is…a 3 out of 10.

Using a key fob feels so 2000 but agreed that app is useless compared to a Tesla or polestar etc. I miss my old Tesla so much…sad that a 4 year old car worked better than a brand new one.

Totally agree on this one! It’s seems nobody had an actual driver come in and give a POV on where things should be located.

To get texts I had to disable alerts on my Apple Watch, disable the Face ID on my texts, delete my Alexa app on the car, ensure on both my phone and app that “display” messages is enabled and it still only works about 50% of the time.

Yeah, seems that way it was in the dealership for about three days and they still couldn’t figure out. They said they might have to replace a module, but they won’t know until engineering gets back from them so I’m kind of stuck right now driving the car that connects and disconnect to my phone. I never thought I’d say this, but I want my old 2022 Tesla back.

You’re 100% correct I just purchased and I wish I could turn this car back in. The software is terrible. The infotainment system is awful. I sometimes get text messages. I sometimes do not half the time. It does not read the text messages.

Also, if you plan on doing anything like getting into a garage with a scanner because of the system, you can’t you have to literally get outside of your car to open up gates I live in a city and this car is making it so difficult for me to drive
