At the 2024 New York International Auto Show, Polestar revealed that it's next car will feature a starting price of $56,300. That said, one thing you won't get for that money is a rear window.
No doubt. It isn’t obstruction proof. The obstructions are just different. You’re not dealing with heads, head wrests, pillars and roof lines, you’re dealing with dirt, rain, etc.
If the brightness and frame rate are not an issue, I’d probably take the camera over the mirror. I live in a fairly temperate area, and my Volvo’s current camera doesn’t get obstructed that often. But it’s also just a back up camera.
I test drove my last car on a shitty winter day so I could get real with it.
That’s the problem - you’re replacing a window with a camera. Some rain, dust, or a bike rack, and your view is now worse than the window.
