Hi all,
Very pleased with my Evolve 87kW e-4orce so far. (3 weeks in!)
The digital rear view mirror is taking a bit of getting used to, but I have notice recently that in wet conditions the camera used by the mirror gets "sprayed" or just wet. This seems like a design fault to me, unless I'm missing something. What have others experienced?
Also, I have tended to switch to the regular mirror at night as the camera doesn't seem to deal with bright lights behind very well.

I'm more in the contrary, I'm using it more at night because I can see better on the digital image than through the rear tinted window with the regular mirror.
When raining you have to use the rear wiper sometimes to maintain the rear lens clean.

We don't use the digital mirror at all... we both find the "flat" non-3D image to be very difficult to view because the eyes have to focus on what is optically a "near" object, whereas a mirror displays true 3D and the eyes are focussing on relatively distant objects.

When reversing, of course, the built-in cameras and the large screen display are invaluable.

I do use it on occasion, especially with a car full but agree takes a while to focus on and get used to the picture. It is useful though. Don't the latest polestar 4, that doesn't have a rear window and only a digital mirror. It is much better though.

Personally love it, mine doesn’t get wet and dirty at all, not had to use the rear wiper.
I would be tempted by a Tesla if it had one of these plus the Head Up Display which I love.
