They did that just to fuck over Tesla in China.

Rest of the world if you live in Europe or China where they have enough bargaining power from their size I suppose. Doubt this will work in smaller countries and regions. Only hope is that the manufacturers feel that it's not worth it to make 2 different models of the same car.

That's Elon "Why would we need lidar? Humans don't use lidar, they just use their eyes and there's no reason technology could possibly improve on human vision" Musk?

It's nice to have it on a fixed screen of decent size rather than on a floppy mount and a 6.x" screen. The car screen doesn't need to be a touchscreen though. My Mercedes had Carplay with a rotary dial, no touchscreen. That was when they were still being conservative with their tech, then they went the hyperscreen route.
