    So after of owning the car, last weekend was the first time using it at night on the highway. To my surprise, my base 2017 Prime has auto high beam, but they suck. I couldn't find a way to use the high beam manually. It's either push to activate the auto mode or don't use at all? Holding the stick towards me is NOT an option lol.

    There's a group of 5 buttons left of and below the steering column. One shows a stylized headlamp and the text AUTO below it. That toggles AUTO High Beams ON/OFF. Enjoy. J

    Thanks. I don't recall seeing it in the manual (read it a year ago though) and a Google search didn't mention that button, hence why I asked. Now I know :)
