Not sure what this report is pointed at.
We're not parsing either of those values in the library, just returning the data as received from API.

Mainly informative in case you did use these variables anywhere ( eg tests )

feel free to close

Ah, in that case, thanks! That would rather be a discussion next time as we try to keep issues for actual bugs only.

Do you habe any further information how iStep or other values could be used to differentiate between different car capabilities?
