Anyway, we did 100km yesterday and going for another 150km drive today. Loving it so far with the exception of the rattle on the sunroof.
Not true for mine. With auto hold switched off, a hard push on the brake engages stop start whereas softly touching brake doesn't. With auto hold on, it engages every time you stop, providing the battery is charged (this is annoying in traffic)
