Has anyone made a diesel-electic hybrid passenger car? Seems like that would be a good combination.

I recommend Mazda to people looking for average sedans/hatchbacks/SUVs and they don’t want a Golf. But the whole “punches above it’s weight” for interior is such a cliche thing to say these days; it’s nicer inside than the equivalent Toyota/Honda/whatever, but there are clear corners cut for cost when comparing it to…
Diesel shines in the fuel economy realm compared to hybrids when you are doing lots of steady state highway cruising. Hybridization really shines in stop and go settings, but adds little on the freeway. So I can see buying diesel over a hybrid equivalent if you mostly do long freeway drives. That said, I can’t imagine…
They Hummer 2 was such a stupid truck. It was huge, had no space inside and was awful offroad.
GM wouldn’t even need this if they hadn’t made the new Chevy trucks so whackadoodle. And offroading... as if. If Hummer comes back people will do the exact same thing with these that they do as 9 out of 10 other heavy duty, full-size pickup owners do, drive them to their office job.
Bob Lutz made a great point in his bean counters books that you had people cursing Hummer and freaking out meanwhile they never yelled at Toyota for its Sequoia’s fuel efficiency, or lack thereof. Youre right, because it was a stand alone brand it got a lot of flack. TBH I really dig the H3T but the windows feel so…
Ads on FOXNEWS: “Hummer is back! Buy one to piss off the libs!”
If they’d never made the truck that would be a good name for an electric vehicle. And if it wasn’t a slang term for oral sex. One I’ve never really understood since none of my partners has provided musical accompaniment.
I mean you cant evaluate Hummer w/o the context of who tended to drive H1s and H2s. Pretty much universally assholes and ppl exploiting tax loopholes given the GVW of the H1.
There is an electric small penis joke in there somewhere, I just can’t figure it out.
Any plans for my long-awaited GMC Cutlass?
You say this like there’s not already an electric Hummer...
Could they make a shorter version with a diesel and a manual under the Oldsmobile brand? We could get our own Lebaron James to make a commercial for it (maybe).
LeBron? eh, worked last tim....oh
It looks like it came out great too. Hopefully its a success and spurs them to do more in house sports cars and maybe share them with America.
Perhaps Toyota is the one that will bring balance to the force.
At least they actually did most of the engineering on this one.
I mean, yes, but the Supra is a shitty successor to the 80s and 90s we loved. And the FRS has always cried for more power and is now pretty damn old. Toyota gives a “that’ll do” sports offering.
So wait, Subaru becomes more and more humdrum by the year and Toyota starts making the fun cars?
