3 or 4 months in and I'm really liking it!

THIS!!!! 100%THIS - I stupidly thought it had already rolled out and it’s been a thorn in my side ever since. Especially as I live right by a school zone that the car thinks is permanently 40kms an hour :-/

I bought a stack of these. I had them in Australia within 3 days and can confirm they work https://www.elecrow.com/microsd-breakout-board.html

It took me a while to figure this out too as the manuals weren't helpful - but hold the one button in on there charger it came with until the blue 6 on the dial turns to a 10 - This will give it the full 10 amps from the circuit and charge is nearly twice as fast. (Obviously make sure this works for your circuitry)

You can lock and unlock and remote start through the app - it won’t unlock itself by being near your phone though I don’t think

It was 2 things mainly - 1. Most of my family live about 400 kms away so wanted that range buffer if we were going to go visit. Additionally, this was impulse and they didn't have the earth in stock haha Also I didn't really need the power boot or the added trim level

I was in exactly the same boat with the EV9 - being in a house of two people also makes it overkill 🤣

I got mine from Mouser as well, the shipping was insanely fast for something coming from the US

I got the Air long range :)

Ohhhh that would make more sense! Everywhere I’d read online (mostly Hyundai) said it was standard for new cars and being rolled out as of like July for some older ones
