Nice! I definitely love the ACC and lane assist (not that those are exclusive to EVs). They definitely help on long road trips or when you're in slow moving traffic. Looks like a fun little car.

I find them both annoying. Our ACC is way too sensitive and it slows the car jarringly at times. The lane assist is also too sensitive so the car is constantly beeping at me over nothing.

There are definitely wide variances in how natural they feel. I had ACC on a rental a few years back and hated it, but I really like it on the RAV4P. You do still occasionally find yourself behind a slow car without realizing it, but overall it does a nice job. And again, the place where I like it the best is in traffic where I can just kind of set it and let it do its thing rather than constantly going back and forth between the brake and accelerator.

Regarding the acceleration, I'm guessing the Niro is about in line with the Leaf. You're right that it won't wow any Tesla enthusiasts, but it's plenty zippy for what you actually need when driving around.

Out of curiosity, does the Niro do one-pedal driving? I miss not having that on my RAV4P.

We do a lot of interstate driving. In town, ACC is a lot more tolerable. On the interstate, it's terrible.

The big problem is that you can't turn it off. If CC is on, safety measures are on. You can't enable CC and shut off the ACC, it's all or nothing.

Eww, that sucks. Mine has the option to do it either way (CC vs. ACC). Though admittedly I've never turned it off.

Not on the Niro!

This is completed by pressing the CRUISE button on the steering wheel, accelerating to your desired speed, and then pressing the SET- button on the steering wheel. The distance control setting can be turned on and off by pressing and holding the distance control button located next to CANCEL on the steering wheel.

I think you're car is trying to tell you that you're a bad driver.
