    I just bought the 2RS with super cruise and really enjoy it. I feel like on the RS there's a lot of attention to detail with the stitching and i think the all black exterior looks sick on the rs. Also with google maps built in it can route plan for you and show you where to charge how long and what your state of charge will be when you arrive.

    I'm debating between the Equinox and the ID4. If I consider interest rate, both will be the same price after financing. I'm gonna test drive both, but with your experience with both of them, which one you prefer the most and why?

    I really like how your car looks. I'd like to get one, but we are still sticking with your hybrid as we take too many long road trips. We just had a Buick Envision, before that a Kia and now a Kia again. I will agree that the Hyundai/Kia lane keep assist/lane centering is one of the best compared to other brands.

    I never understand why designers insist on keeping such squared, less efficient shapes. Glad it’s working for you though. EV Equinox is better than a gas Celica.

    I like the 21" wheels. Our LYRIQ Debut Ed comes with them too. Gives it a pretty cool bump in profile look, IMHO. Out of curiosity, were there any EVgo charging plans offered? Ours came with 2 yrs free unlimited. The one button recently added to the LYRIQ is the garage door opener. it now is in the dock. Big improvement. I am thinking the EQUINOX will be getting it soon too.

    It would be interesting to know if you can export your Plug Share routing to the Google GPS? Also according to my salesman at the dealer the car won't precondition the battery prior to get to a charging station even if one is selected in the GPS, only a manual preconditioning start is possible?

  • @theaverageev

    That’s not true about the preconditioning. When using the Google navigation it absolutely automatically preconditions. You can also manually precondition if you want.

    I’m trying to remember. I think just ACC will bring you to a stop but if you sit to long you need to press the accelerator. If you have super cruise it will stop and start. I’m pretty sure that’s what happened. I’ve been using super cruise so much I can’t remember.
