      Uhhhh…

      …any level 4 car actually, according to the federal governments and all the agencies who regulate this stuff.

      NAVYA, Volvo/Audi, Mercedes, magna, baidu, Waymo.

      Tesla isn’t even trying to go past level 3 at this point.

        Why the fuck did I get down voted for looking for an ev Tesla alternative… This place makes no sense. Are you all Tesla fan boys or what?

          It sounded like sarcasm rather than an honest question. Like “Find me a better autopilot” rather than “What manufacturer would you recommend for autopilot?”

            It… sounded?? How does my question not appear genuine? I literally just asked a question. I want to buy an EV with excellent software in the next few years. That’s it. No sarcasm. Would prefer not a Tesla.

      A 2014 Infiniti can drive itself more safely on the highway than a Tesla. The key here is they didn’t lie about the cars capabilities so they didn’t encourage complacency.

      In the city though, yeah you’ll need to look at other level 4 cars.

      What brand of car has better autopilot with other sensors?

      All of them. The other automakers didn’t fire their engineers during a hissy fit.
