Hydrogen at 690 bar (about 10kpsi) has an energy density of 4.5 MJ/L compared to 0.9 to 2.6 MJ/L for a lithium-ion battery. The real problem for hydrogen-powered cars is not infrastructure. That could be built out pretty quickly if the demand were there. It’s that gasoline is cheap and abundant right now so there’s no…

The apology has already made the new Top Gear worse than the old.

Your local Russian is here to translate.

I only had time for one sloth.

Wait, so a rear engine, cab rearward pickup truck? The space efficiency of a cab forward truck without the safety concerns? You just blew my mind...

Or why not just put the cab at the very back? You get the experience of that rear-fire engine navigator, and you can keep an eye on your payload. Unload it, and maybe it could do some wheelies for kicks.

Very easy to prove since he reportedly confessed at the scene. Probably thought it wasn’t going to be as serious as this. He deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail as far as I am concerned, but he was still dumb to confess without attorney, even if (as some commentors thought) he thought he was doing the right…

So in heavy gridlock, surrounded by a full school bus and a propane truck, police decided to open fire? On suspects that were running away (as opposed to attacking) and (based on there being no mention of a weapon) unarmed?

Why do I smell patent bullshit? This reads like vapor dreams, and the pictures could easily be an off the shelf inverter in a shiny billet box.

Faraday Future is the Donald Trump of car manufacturers.

The whole reason I bought a car in 2014 is that I could get one without an infotainment screen. I figure it’ll be good for 15 years or so, by which time I’ll be too senile to care.

They might not be the same people, but the same company is managing the deliverable items and holding the appropriate people accountable. If you can’t get something as SIMPLE as infotainment right, how can I expect the company to manage getting the autonomy right?

Agreed. A poor test based on the vehicle choices alone.

I find it hard to believe that many people would assume that a 17-year old SUV design would be somehow safer than a 4-year old MPV. Anyone that’s been paying attention even a little bit knows the scale of safety advances that happened in that period.

...which is kinda the point of technology (reducing the human labor required to achieve an equal or greater end result).

So basically it’s broken and rather than fix it properly the owner has ripped things out until the light went out. I’m thinking CP all the way.

Comfort is Russian.

Also works great for Civil and Survey computer drafting, I use a g500 that has only a few extra mouse buttons but I I have macros assigned to them. My boss was hesitant to let me have one for work, saying “Why do you need a GAMING mouse for work?” I then explained to him how racing stripes on a car doesn’t make the…

pretty sure everyone who’s driven one of the three hybrid hypercars which you called “less exciting” said they’re the most exciting cars they’ve ever driven. also blanket statements like “filthy rich guys are not car enthusiasts” don’t serve your argument well at all. i can name 5 off the top of my head, one of them…

Now I DO think there are compelling reasons to buy a midsized over a full size that aren’t related to bulk purchasing power, such as off road nimblness and fit-in-garageness but in comparing midsized to the ridgeline...Honda needs a compelling case outside of “nice ride” if they hope to grow their market beyond people…
