Auto High Beams on IM6?

[Chukensky]

Hi everyone,

I picked up my IM6 Long Range yesterday and so far I’m really enjoying it! I’m not sure if anyone else in the UK has taken delivery yet, but I’ve got a quick question.

Does the car actually have auto high beam? The handbook refers to “Intelligent High Beam,” but I can’t find a way to get it working in the car itself. I’ve got the lights set to AUTO, but the high beams still seem to need manual operation.

Has anyone else tried this, and if so, what’s your experience?

Thanks in advance!

Very interested to hear your views on the IM6 after you have had it a few weeks.

What car did you have before?

Both my test drives were during day so I have not seen it in action.
I noticed though that quite a few of the tech has been copied straight out of Tesla's book.
With this in mind I presume the Intelligent High Beam will operate as in my Tesla.
Once activated the car through the cameras monitors visibility. If the camera's struggle and there are no other cars within their vision then it activates the high beam. If external light conditions improve or a car appears within the frontal cameras vision then it goes back to normal beam. And so on.

You could test it by driving the car during the night from a well lighten area to a dark road.

I came from 3 years in a model 3, and 6 months in a Mercedes EQA. Only having a day in the car, I can assure you it’s far more competent than the EQA and perhaps on par with the Model 3 in terms of its capabilities. I think the piloting in the Tesla was far superior than what’s available on the IM6, however it’s still very capable. The IM6 is miles ahead of both cars in terms of comfort and build quality.

Quick question for you too... if you don't mind = how much was insurance and from what company?

I’m still struggling to find a reasonable price. Tescos are the only company offering insurance, but it’s £1800 and I’m not paying that. My dealership have given me a week on their insurance. I’m hoping I can find insurance by then!!

Best I found so far was from Co-op for 1,2k through u switch site.
Admiral do not insure for the time being and this is my current insurer.
Other big companies not on comparison sites do not provide quotes to me either.

For content 45 years old male, 14 years Non claim (was living outside UK before), no other mitigating factors. Liverpool postcode is probably one though

I got a quote (out of interest) for a BYD Sealion 7 - £330, much cheaper than I imagined - full NCB Kent postcode.

I am glad you are enjoying it. I have placed an order today but have realised there is one thing I forgot to check on. Does it have pet mode like a Tesla? I think I read somewhere that it has a scene that may wok in the same way

Interesting?
What is pet mode?

What you set pet mode on a Tesla it leaves the air con on, disables the interior alarm, locks the door and displays a message with the interior temperature on the screen. Great for leaving your dog in the car. You can also monitor it via the app and check on the temperature.

Wow! I am so out of touch with all this technology. That is a brilliant additional feature for dog owners.

Wouldn't pet mode with a wok be only a feature of Korean cars
