‘Typical’ car loans are not getting stretched out to 9 years. Stop sensationalizing and spreading misinformation. Many lenders are getting away from doing even 7 yr loans.

This post really nails it.
This car isn’t a 720S or Huracan rival.
I’ve had the chance to one drive one pretty hard, and came away mostly unenamored.
I sure hope they don’t, but with their track record, I’m afraid you may be right. It doesn’t need any changing. Just subtle evolution and improvement.
I had a 2014 Trail Edition w/ a 3" lift and Duratrac 33's that I miss dearly. It was absolutely unstoppable off road, couldn’t have cared less about road imperfections, and was awesome to cruise around in in the summertime with all the windows down. When I traded it, I missed it so much I went out and found an old one…
Once upon a time, Nissan was my favorite car MFR. I had a 2000 6MT Maxima, a 2002 auto Maxima, and a 2006 6MT 350Z. All were great cars. All were built at a time when Nissan still seemingly had a sense of pride and identification. And then it took all of one generation of cars to flush that all down the toilet and rele…
A slightly cooler (and admittedly better performing) version of the less cool version of the Mustang.
You’re conveniently leaving out the fact that in addition to the ultra low production numbers and unique cosmetic touches, to get the same interior option on an R8+ requires a $5,000 option, and then another 7 grand to get a matte finish paint option, which is what Decennium is finished in. It’s also a Daytona Grey,…
Their plan went off the rails really quick.
Every vehicle “fails to deliver in some way”.
Literally later this year.
Range- As expected, and no limitation to the average EV buyer. In fact, it wouldn’t even be a limitation to over 80% of the driving population’s daily driving.
The Prius was a milestone for Toyota and a significant model, for sure.
Compared to the Q5 in the metric of content, performance, and size, the e-Tron is totally fairly priced. Especially once tax credits are taken into account.
It is a mainstream, relatively dated platform converted to EV use. And it was built to target a particular price point and market position. You’re really overanalyzing it. Audi and the VAG have the means to be as efficient as they want, and once the platforms that are from-scratch designed to be EV only start coming,…
You are overlooking the fact that Japanese brands by and large, are extremely conservative. Many times, to a fault. Once something is proven to be a successful formula, they sit on it. For as long as possible. It’s why Toyota hybrids still had nickel-metal hydride batteries until just a few years ago, and the Sequoia…
Well, that’s one way to look at it. Here’s another, and much more realistic, way-
This and other upcoming rivals are 100% going to take a big bite out of Tesla’s market share. Don’t kid yourself and think otherwise. As all the brands that offer build quality and a dealer support network leagues beyond Tesla begin to bring these vehicles to market, Tesla’s novelty won’t be a large factor any more.
I work for Audi on the dealer level, and the estimates all along were that this was going to come in in the low 200-mile range. So this is no surprise. Now should it be an obstacle for anyone who was seriously considering one of these in the first place. The number of EV buyers driving their autos the max range in one…
