MGS6 getting closer

I believe that besides the price, success will also depend on charging speed and longer range – after all, in today’s standards, just under 500 km is below average. And above all, charging speed will be the key factor next year. I’d also appreciate OTA updates – I’m not sure whether the S5 already supports them.

There will never be OTA updates.

There will never be OTA updates.

I think there is on the IMs, probably not on anything else

Not sure range is that important in Europe. It may vary depending on the country, but in the UK, ranges are already long enough for almost everyone.

Similarly, charging speed is already too quick for many who want to stop and have a bite to eat / drink en-route. Yes, if you are targeting people who travel long-distance for work, but this is now quite a small percentage of people overall.

Again, this may well vary by country, I'm speaking about the UK here.

OTA updates are not a panacea. Yes, people would like to have their car updated remotely. But then, supposing an update bricks your car on your driveway or the roadside?

Some makes, like Renault, have hedged their bets, with two types of updates: some that are OTA and some that require a dealer visit.
