I think the buttons you pointed to on the door panel are massage seats buttons. Ventilated seats are on the same button as heated seats.

Raising the suspension leaves less leeway for the suspension to travel when hitting bumps. Leave in default position for most comfortable ride. Raise the transmission when necessary to get over obstacles or offroading.

I just got a allocation, hope to have it by mid July to beginning of Aug they say. I would love to know how many miles do you average on hybrid?? On full electric? Some say 50, some say 31. Would love to know what you are experiencing. Thank you!!

Thanks for the detailed review. I am debating between Tesla Model Y vs BMW 45e. I can't decide which one to get. Since you have both and have driven both, what is your take? If you have to buy a car what would you chose? Thanks in advance.

Your the only one that has had an issue with the ride quality. Mine just arrived at the dealership so I will be able to test it out for myself soon.

Update: I've had the vehicle over a month now and I must say it has the most comfortable ride that I have ever experienced. It is soo smooth. Yes it is heavy but handles quite well for the extra weight. Took it on the road to Orlando and noticed that it is not that great on gas. But for me I can go back and forward from work and to the grocery store during the week on straight EV. They need to up the range to about 50 miles because the 30 goes pretty quickly especially when running the AC. Also they need to add fast charging for the 50e. It charges way to slow to utilize public charging. Fast charging will greatly improve the experience and greatly reduced visits to the gas station.

Sorry dude Honda standard features do just fine to keep you in the lane. Works perfectly under normal conditions.
