Friend really likes the laneway lines feature at night but noted practicality is correlated with proliferation. Can't have too many of these on the road crossing streams with light pollution.
Since when is playing a movie off of a projector illegal? Projection is not necessarily distribution, just as playing local media files is not necessarily piracy. I will definitely be grabbing my popcorn for the legal show though
My BYD has a 15" screen, it's very very nice for watching films/shows while waiting/charging/whatever. I even play Expedition 33 (and other games) on it with an Xbox controller via Moonlight.
And I'm sure no one ever abuses that by watching a movie while driving...
As much as I generally don't love technology taking a paternalistic attitude toward restricting what happens on the infotainment system, I really don't think it's a good idea to offer a feature like that, unless it only functions when the car is stopped and not in gear.
The driving gimmick (which works well at night) is light carpet mode that projects car width, braking distance, lane guidance etc, it's like following racing line in forza. Once you throw in projector, might as well as pitch movie night.

That'll put a whole new spin on drive in movie theaters...

It’s 2026. Headlines don’t have to obfuscate brands behind the country of origin.
American IP Lawyers are gunna be having some interesting thoughts now... ;)

Heh Heh Heh
While I totally agree with you, the promo pictures showing a movie being played "outside" will give serious vibes like this does for music:

Legal or illegal doesn't matter if lawyers can smell profit (and the smell of money covers any odor of moral or immoral).
Not to mention American adtech execs. If you think being blinded by oncoming halogens is bad, wait until they also burn ads into your retinas.
Now if only this car I'm sitting behind in this traffic jam had a nice big white screen mounted in the back ...

That's exactly what we need, to teach little johnny to go play out in front of the running car!
Why would you want that?

I wonder what movies the Audi and BMW drivers tailing 3 inches behind me will play when this drops.
This is almost like Onion levels of parody how much better Chinese EVs are than American ones
