they confirmed today that for other than map updates, the car software will require dealer visits on an ongoing basis. Map OTA updates will come later after an initial dealer update.

I thought in terms of presentation it was absolutely fine and they answered questions. My only disappointment is no OTA updates, which is a frustration with capability rather than the actual presentation itself which I think had a decent level of detail. It would be good to get a more detail overview of the software, menus, etc on the car.

Ok. A bit more excited and relieved now. Definitely sounded quiet/hardly any road noise. It is a big car and would have been nice if he commented on the turning circle as he did turn the car in the road. Still no mention of efficiency, only that it is a Hyundai and their previous cars have been really efficient but none of those have weighed well over 2 tonnes!
Solar panels do look nice, and as long as it has the bright interior which this demo car had then it will not feel too dark or claustrophobic inside. Loving the ride quality and interior space. And like the Tesla Model S, looks like you will be able to sleep/camp in it, if absolutely necessary, as will have a huge load bay with the seats folded flat. And the V2L will allow you to prepare your breakfast and meals later on suitable electric appliances!
Hyundai really showing the benefits and uses of a proper EV design and architecture.

the fascination with camping in a car is still one i can't get my head around
