In the R2?

My G1 R1S has some of that, I’ve used it enough to know what to look for.

In the R2, huge improvements. On roads I’ve used the R1 driver+ and consistently had issues, the R2 has been pretty smooth.
Sorry, it was the R1T. I guess I am a bit disappointed that it is much better in the R2 than a '26 R1T given they should both be using similar hardware.

You may want to give it another try, there have recently been updates, if you have not tried in awhile it may be better. I know my G1 R1S will has improved quite a bit since I’ve had it but I usually only use it on open highway stretches.

That's just for the R1 though, correct?

I need to confirm next time I drive, but I think on the R2, the right scroll wheel mode can be changed by clicking it left or right. I know one option is the UHF/cruise speed. The other is "Maps and Navigation". I don't recall there being another option.

Having said that, I'm sure they will be adding the Autonomy drive style feature you mentioned at some point. Maybe it's there and I'm just missing it.
It's on the stalk on R2.

It’s fine. Nothing special. Slightly better than it is in Gen2 R1S. Probably just weight of vehicle differences being felt.

Not worth any amount of paid subscription at this point. Hoping for great things out of it, but keeping my expectations low, so I don’t end up with Gen1 disappointments again.

Compared to my Gen 1 R1s it's light years ahead. I used it quite a bit today on a drive that was mostly 2 lane highways with very little shoulder if any and it was nearly flawless. The only issue I had was with lane changes where it seemed to think a seam in the road surface was a solid line instead of a dashed line.

Obviously it'll be great when stop signs and red lights are added but I found it to be very useful.
