First of all, I doubt Apple is going to build a car. Second of all, Akerson isn't entirely wrong. Making cars is on a different planet altogether and requires an insane amount of cash capital to keep running. Its also unwise to get into totally different industries when the one you know best is making you tons of…

He is exactly correct. No matter how hydrogen is produced requires MORE energy to do so than the hydrogen produced afterwards will ever produce. It is- as he put it- not an energy source. It simply carries over some of the energy used to produce it.

whoopee. Its another generic wedge looking supercar and it sold out.

I've got some respect for the collector here. The cars look like royal pains in the ass to work on and service.

It looks a little rough. That and as someone who grew up with parents who owned a number of popup campers these things ALWAYS leak. That and they can very easily rot. The chinook at least has a solid roof.

That is true. The Volt is also pretty fast off the line, especially in sport mode. It will just about whip any gas powered car by a good margin at least from 0-40 or so. It will go 0-60 in about 8 seconds which is pretty decent just the same. As far as the Golf and how fast it goes I'd have to see.

Maybe people in Chicago are nicer drivers. Out here in Cali they come barreling down the freeway and pity those who get in the way...

Former Prius owner here so I am familiar with Prius speeds. 10 seconds is painful on the freeways, especially getting on. I mean it was like I needed to make sure that there really wasn't any traffic coming that was within a reasonable distance. That and from a driveability perspective was miserable yet for such a…

So its as fast a prius.... Smokin'!

This is almost a joke. 0-60 in 13 seconds? My Volt in all EV mode will do that in 8 seconds and its important to remember its still lugging around an engine. Given the description of its "interesting" drivetrain configurations I also wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole. Given that VW doesn't seem to know how to…

ahhhh. So now we're reverting to childish name calling. Look. I think you missed the point. At issue is the fact that this Hyundai thing doesn't look like anything other than a blend of other car brand designs. Instead of coming up with a truly unique design the car simply rips off design cues from any number of other…

So where does the "Pullman" name come from? The brand of luxury train cars that rode the rails in the US throughout the last century? Seems a mistake to name a car after trains...

If all Porsche does is simply take a Porsche and stick batteries in it then it is not a Tesla competitor. In order for it to be as such it would need to be completely designed and engineered from the ground up to be a fully electric car. There is a very good reason the batteries in the Tesla are in the floor: Ultimate…

and the other thing too is that while these amounts aren't anything to sneeze at people should compare this to the 10's of millions banking execs get paid in bonuses- some at the heads of banks which were fairly responsible for causing the recession.

bad head gaskets aren't good things. I guess I'm just biased because it seemed that anyone I knew as a kid who owned these little adorable sports cars from that era from MG, Triumph, Fiat and so on had unbelievably bad problems with them. I suppose that's pretty unscientific. I guess to me it was like it was a car…

price doesn't= quality. I wouldn't own one of these of it were given to me. There are web sites devoted just to making fun of the awfulness of Lucas electrics and this car definitely has it.

these cars were shit. Plain and simple. Rubber bumpers or not.

Frame rust is not a uniquely Toyota-only phenomenon. What's different is that Toyota is the only company whom will replace yours if it does rust out. Not so with the other truck makers.

We're kiddin' right? This thing looks like a whale combined with a dodge charger.

I saw one of these yesterday parked out front of my office for the first time. As much excitement and hoopla as everyone had over the fact that someone else built a mid-sized truck other than Toyota, I have to be honest that my reaction was sort of of.... meh. Not sure why. It looks AN AWFUL lot like the outgoing…
