Most users seem to prefer the speed based auto zoom in the way: more zoomed out at higher speed and more zoomed in at lower speed.
I would prefer exactly the other way round: more zoomed in at higher speed (because I only want to see the next 2-3 curves at the biggest width when I am in the pusher mode)… and more zoom out at lower speed in order to get a better overview of the area when cruising around…
Anyone supporting this request?

So like a “reverse” speed based auto zoom.
Is there any navigator that works this way?

No, I don’t know any, but is Kurviger an app off the shelf? I guess it would be a strength and unique selling point of Kurviger.
I support the idea. This is different from common navigation and that’s what bikers need.
Please think about that.

Market niche on the way to the best motorcycle navigation app
Hi.
I do use both approaches at the same time:
Close zoom to see how the really next curves are.
Larger zoom to see how the following kms are in front of me (somehow look forward).
I can do it because I manage two apps at the same time on the screen: Locus Maps (2D and close zoom) and Kurviger (3D and large zoom).
So I understand the request, although I have fulfilled it differently.
Regards.

just a question and only to know: I guess this still only works in the way, the more speed the lower zoom.

At least I wasn’t the only one who would prefer it the other way round. Was this an option which was rejected or is there a little hope that this could be realized?
Why not putting it into New features , then everyone may vote for it.

Isn’t the chapter “suggestion” the same?
(the question was moved in its correct topic)
Like all suggestions, I could see it in the future depending on the available resources and user interest.
Perhaps using a Bluetooth remote control for zooming could be a good workaround:
I just updated to 1.13.17. What can I say. Zooming with the Pearl remote control now works perfectly. Thank you for the update.! Automatic zooming works great in 90% of cases. Only sometimes does it make it easier to operate the zoom manually. This now works perfectly with the remote control for just 7 euros
