Eh Ford specifically sells a shitload of trucks. Most vehicles they sell are trucks. Trucks make most of their profit. And trucks will still allowed to be combustion for a while

they really think that people were dying to buy electric cars by the hundred of thousands?
I mean, they are. Just not theirs, lol.
Americans like crossovers because our roads are shit
I wonder what finally got them to cave
The existing cameras are good enough. You don’t need 4K/60fps to reverse your car.
Also typically when resolution goes up on small cameras like that. Low light performance goes down. It’s why we saw a ton of phones in like 2015 everyone tried out high resolution cameras in phones. Dropped them after a year. And now they are finally coming back as image processing improves.
A pixel 7 sensor wouldn’t work well as a backup camera. Or any high pixel count phone sensor. Post processing does most of the work in those phones. Especially in low light.
Also these cameras are designed to stream data. For a very long time. And work in low light. If you took a raw stream from an iPhone or other modern sensor and put it in a car it probably wouldn’t look very good. Post processing really carries the image quality.
I also feel like there would be some overheating problems if you left the car in reverse for an hour or so.
A 108 megapixel phone sensor in a backup cam probably would not look very good especially in low light. Your phone does a ton of post processing and binning to make the image look good. All of this is assuming the processor in the car infotainment keep up with a 108 megapixel stream. Which it probably can’t.
Evs also got this sub to love public transit too as a cudgel against EVs lmao. I guess it’s proof a rising tide lifts all ships.
But the hybrid rhetoric here is hilarious.
Before ev: “too complicated, too expensive, going to break”
After ev push: “hybrids are the actual best option for everyone, complexity is good actually”
