Don’t forget that most EVs are heavier than their ICE counterparts, and heavier cars need larger brakes and tires.

Neutral: None whatsoever. IMO almost all of the new driver safety “aids” are a crutch that make people worse drivers.
Dragging?
Exactly. All these people that have to drive a Mercedes.
$500/mo on an Accord? Wow, some people are really dumb. Then again, at least it was spent on a car that won’t fall apart.
Uhh, I mean yeah. Anything turbocharged these days sounds like complete dogshit. So of course a high revving F1 based engine is gonna sound better!
How are SUVs better values? They cost the same for carmakers to build (as a comparably sized sedan) and carmakers charge more for them. Great value there!
more like extremely heavy. heavier than a full size pickup truck. laughably heavy.
The Model 3 is 25% heavier. Has much better straight line performance, naturally, but heavy is heavy.
Your races must be short, haha :-P
Everything. CO2 is a harmless trace gas.
There’s plenty to complain about when the “fuel source” (in this case a battery) is 1300 lbs. How much does a 20 gallon tank of gasoline weigh again?
Acceleration, top speed, and efficiency no better than a Model S. Exactly why does this car have a 2 speed transmission again? 5100 lbs and a cramped rear seat.
Really? Its the fault of the DOTs and interstates? All the blame lays in land planners and zoning. If you don’t want sprawl, don’t let them build it.
1st Gear) translation of Ford’s statement: Yeah we still don’t know what we’re doing.
I think sales are hurt somewhat because cars are looking more like CUVs thanks to ridiculous pedestrian crash standards (have you seen the hood height of a Civic these days?), and are held to extra high CAFE standards (compared to CUVs). CUVs get a pass because they’re “trucks” and are thus rated less harshly by the…
I see the brainwashing is working well for you.
I’ll tune in when the races resemble the F Zero video game on SNES. Until then, I’ll just continue bitching about how horrible the engines are in F1.
BMW, thanks for saving me the troubling of lusting after another car I probably can’t afford (and wouldn’t want to maintain on the used market).
That’s a great point. Also the Honda E sucks. Laughable range and cost.
