I wish, Renault and/or the salesperson would communicate clearly about the camera. It's way creepier when there is just a camera looking at you without having the context of it being required and which privacy requirements it has per law.
Interestingly, if I disable the function and then cover the camera, a warning still appears. I don't know if that's due to a weird implementation by Renault or a thing implied by the law
Yes, the infotainment system even shows is as being constantly used, which I could disable by going through the android app list (infotainment is based on android) and disabling the built-in AI assistant
I only tried to cover it for a short time, as my parents are really opposed to the idea of covering it. Maybe I'll design and 3d print a removable cover.
I think the laptop camera argument was a little short-sighted; I also pointed that out to them 😅
Only the warning feature. When disabled, the car still notices when the camera is coverd.
Oh, god, have they? I've only read about Stellantis
No
I was luckily able to disable that one through androids app manager
Yes, it has a 2GB/month sim card as far as i am aware
Thank you for the clarification!

Oh, I just thought, that it just doesn't do "fast charging". Thank you for the heads-up!
Thank you for the excellent response!
Haha, great idea
The car complains, when I do that. Maybe there is some way around that, but I haven't found one
Thank you for the context! Interestingly, I can disable the system in settings, so Renault should be able to let me cover it or provide a cover
Thank you, I'll look into that :)
YES! If you don't need much range, maybe look the Renault Zoe from 2012. As its older it doesn't seem to have that much tech in it.
