Viewing of the Sat Nav Screen

[avdb]

Some youtube reviewers mention that the steering wheel blocks the view of the left and right screens.

Do owners find that a big problem?

Thanks

I don't use the Sat Nav, so no problem with needing to look at the left screen. Right Screen is only useful for the parking cameras so already driving slowly, when it's not too much of a hassle to look around the wheel.

I'm tall and with the wheel raised up yeah it blocks the nav screen a bit.
That said if you're using the built in nav/maps you can have the next direction instruction on the middle screen as well.

Would prefer the left screen to be the mid screen for this reason.

Big problem? no, audio instructions I can still hear.
minor annoyance? yes. I'm not using the nav that much at the moment though

Now if they'd stuck with the yoke it wouldn't be an issue

I agree with what was mentioned. I am 1.72 tall and it blocks a little. To me is ok even though is not the best. Also in Europe (not uk) the screens are wrong locate since nav and multimedia should be at the right near copilot. Hope an update fix this. But going back to your question it blocks around 30% of the screen view. Just have to move a little to see completely. Not big big deal but just so you know

On the left hand drive its on the right. So the location is correct. Really and truly it should be optioned to the center screen when in use like Audi. But what do I know.

I'm 5'9" / 175 cms and have no issues with either LH or RH when I sat in one last week. The motoring press would have you believe that both are blocked by the steering.

I am 5'11/180 cm and it does not really bother me. One of the so called journalists also complained about the right hand screen reflecting in the outside mirror on the right hand model at night. In my driving position the reflection is no where near the rear vision mirror.

Same with me, no reflection at all....

I’m just over 6ft and we’ve just done a week long trip in Northern Europe mainly using Waze in CarPlay. Much of the time my copilot is watching the satnav screen and I’m listening to Waze and copilot whilst watching the unfamiliar roads. When I do look at the screen I don’t find it’s unuseably blocked with my seat and steering wheel in comfortable long distance driving positions.
