Default SD Card Capacity

I am picking up my C8 tomorrow. Can someone tell me the largest size SD card you can use for the PDR?

WOW, this should be a sticky by now... that said, just buy the largest one you can afford and it will be fine. Just make sure it meets the specs in the manual

I purchased a 512GB card for my C8 and it works just fine...

SanDisk - Extreme PRO 512GB SDXC UHS-I Memory Card

I had a 32GB card in my C7; however, the higher definition of the PDR in the C8 filled up that card rather quickly.

Outdated thread from 2018 wrt C7's.

Hint C8 is not the same car. Formatting is not the same as C7.

SD cards will come preformatted exFAT. Any class 10 will work.

Does the PDR record in 1080 or 4k?

According to the Owners Manual, highest recording quality is 1080P.

50 terabytes should cover you in 20 min track session.
