Indeed... but they’ve still yet come into their own. Design is largely based on borrowed elements. Engines are still derivatives of yore (and borrowed from the Japanese brands they partnered with in the past). Sales volume is still largely due to heavy discounts and low prices.

Okay... but the barrier’s existence does not make women—who choose not to challenge it—a victim (your original assertion).

Nope. She’s an idiot. She owns the car and never bothered to RTFM.

Plenty said the same of Japanese cars decades ago. Laughs on them.

It’s pretty easy to make CG’d ether look good. Reserve judgement until you see the real deal.

I wish manufacturers would take a greater effort at hiding the charging port. Why does it have to be a ugly trap door on the fender?

The victims are the women who didn’t go into racing because they thought that it’s a man’s world, and they’d just be seen as set decoration, or who were turned away by people who struggle to see women as anything more than that. You don’t know who they are, or how many there are, because it’s not really something you…

Right. I understand the debate and I see where the sides are coming from. However, if the women involved do so willingly as a profession... where ars the victims?

Don’t see what the big deal is. Most here can’t afford one anyway.

A red brick.

Build good driving cars and people will actually want to drive them. Build appliances and people want to check out (cough Toyota, Nissan and Honda). Go figure.

“Be different”. Oh the irony.

Hey, I’m not disagreeing with you. But what is right/fair isn’t reality. Knowing what I know now parents and educators should never teach kids the concept of fairness.

Is this release from Nissan suppose to counter “inspection-gate”? A bit out of the blue. And everything happens for a reason.

But you are asking companies to do the one thing they like to do the least of... pay.

It’s the lure of having easy income versus none. If you did your homework and were smart about it, you’d quickly realize that the risk and cost of using your own car to make money with either ride share apps is not an enticing proposition. However, most people either don’t look that deep or accept the negatives…

Anyone know what make and model is most crashed on the ring?

“I’m too rich for my seatbelt. So rich it hurts.”

There’s a fine line between genius and stupidity...

Did they hire a class of middle-schoolers to staff their design department?
