It couldn’t harvest data if it wanted to. Didn’t even splurge for the automatic transmission. Probably one of the last truly dumb vehicles in the US. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago At least in Italy automatic transmission is absolutely failing to take off. To this day almost all new cars are manual, most brands don't even sell automatic variants or models by now. Sequencials are in an even worse spot. Smart features too are really struggling to take off. At most you find simpler GPS systems or hubs to connect your own smartphone to. Maybe we are just too poor to let new shiny things take off. :P permalink fedilink source parent
