It'd be interesting in hearing about how far along autonomy is with the model 3, it seems Tesla may be playing it down in this presentation?

They said it comes with all the hardware necessary but that didn't seem to provide any more information about software and being able to enable it for customers, i.e. regulation and certification of those capabilities.

I think both Audi and Volvo have said they will accept 100% liability for crashes in autonomous mode but I haven't seen a similar statement from Tesla yet.

It is easy to say they accept liability, as long as they are not selling any cars qualifying for it. I think this question needs to be seen when and if we are getting cars which can completely take over from the driver - and that basically implies liability by the manufacturer, because I as a driver have not handed over control, if I would be still liable for accidents.
