It appears only the right tail light is illuminated (but not blinking) on a couple R1Ss in the short video. Curious.

And might eventually get fired (unless approved by management) 😝 (edit: not what I’m hoping for).

Well, a bit encouraging to see a batch of R1S' (in my LG color no less) :)

My BMW would do that as a feature when you flipped the blinker stalk either direction when exiting the car. Think it was mentioned for parallel parking or something, and it would just leave that side light on solid in a similar manner. Probably unrelated, but who knows?

Hoping tailgates are getting mated with glass and then attached via robot arm and not just sitting waiting for parts.
Maybe related but I rented an vw altas se tech last week. Watched a quick YouTube video about it so I could get accustomed to some of the various features. Apparently if you got a 2022 se tech from the beginning half of the year, you got power tailgate and blind spot monitoring but if you got a newer 2022 in the later half (which my rental was) those items were missing and they just shipped the car out editing the features on the website. Randomly dug a little deeper and apparently a lot of car manufactures are struggling with parts for power tail gates right now. Hope that’s not the case here but it could be.

I have no inside info; but this looks like a rework area to me.
