Tesla has most of what’s been outlined here. Their battery packs monitor/cool/heat on per cell level. You can’t replace specific modules as easily, but who has needed to? (Tesla degradation is <1% per year and the packs built in the last few years have been /very/ solid) Teslas also have heat pumps on the motors as,…

And excuses, apparently.

$20 bucks for 3 hours is less than minimum wage.  That doesn’t sound great at all.

If this (and other brand) electric trucks can hit 600+ miles of range fully loaded, hopefully they get on the road ASAP. One would think that the long-term savings on fuel and maintenance costs would make them an easy sell for major operators, not to mention if the government gets behind them with subsidies.…

I have to say, this is pretty incredible from a purely technical standpoint. For all the flack Fortnite gets, EPIC has really managed some amazing things.

Reality is so fucking weird right now.

Perhaps you should test drive one like Top Gear did...

Pretty much every meeting in Australia starts with a statement like this, and frankly it just makes me uncomfortable. To me it sounds like empty platitudes, that the invading culture is paying lip service to indigenous rights rather than actually doing something about it.

“But we’ve been hearing a lot of companies announcing lofty electrification plans like these, so what makes VW different? Well, they’ve at least got hardware to back up the talk.”

No matter if the Dems end up winning the House, this has been one heck of a disappointing result. Given the shitshow that Trump has been fronting for the past 2 years, these races should not be this close.

Volvo Pilot Assist is absolutely NOT in the same category as GM’s and Tesla’s systems. Who told you that, the dealer?

If you’ve driven anything other than the Volvo system, you’d know that the GM and Tesla systems drive extremely differently.

The Volvo Pilot Assist feels like a scary deathtrap in comparison to Tesla’s newest releases, honestly. They may be comparable on paper, but in real-world use there’s a very large difference. Same goes for the system VW uses which essentially just ping pongs in a lane if it can even detect it. But on paper it appears…

Don’t take this the wrong way, as I agree with you in terms of how others would perceive that, so I think it should be changed in the article.

Am I the only one sick of the blatantly negative bias on anything to do with Elon Musk? Seriously there are much worse CEOs out there to pester.

The cop is right. It is a distraction to the job of driving.

This new Jalopnik has become unreadable.. now the editors are putting the ban hammer down on comments.. it’s OK for Jalopnik (and Deadspin, Jez... et al) to call out celebrities, athletes, motorsport personalities every kind of name in the book, say fuck and dick and balls in headlines, but a commenter calls Orlove a…

You’re making news about them.

It was more like, how do I make a cheaper electric car? Get rid of all the parts.
