I can see them selling a few Escalades and such in Australia if they can get the price to around what we pay in the USA. But in Europe, they’re simply too big to really sell in large numbers. I actually think cars like the CT4 and CT5 Blackwing could sell well there though, since they are genuinely good sports sedans,

Of all the virtues EVs have, low weight is not one of them. The motors themselves can be very lightweight, but all the batteries and associated gubbins make them generally a good bit heavier than their ICE-powered counterparts. 

What an incredibly stupid idea.

Possibly the best value in racing in America right now 

I like everything but the name. Dark Horse sounds like the name an emo 8th grader would come up with.

Not just people in the US, people in any western market where these were sold. Besides that, the Yugo was not created in response to any market demand or pressure, but as the only option in its home country. It was this or a donkey if you were a Yugoslav. It just happened that Bricklin thought it’d be a good idea to

Did you read the goddamn title? It said “Nearly 400,000 Vehicles Are Sold Each Year In The U.S. With No Publicly Available Crash-Test Results”. Not worldwide. Yes, we know America isn’t the world. But this article is about the US market. Not the worldwide one.

This car represents all the bad of the 2010s wrapped into one unappealing package.

Indeed. Look at that “Splinter” shit that calls itself “journalism”. Or the HuffPo, Breitbart, I could go on and on.

Muh fat shaming

What is the legality of going over to HK and taking these cars?

Ugghhh. Yet another race-baiting article from the root, this time about white wimmin wearing the oh-so-evil MAGA hat. You do realise there are many blacks supporting Trump?

Or maybe don’t care about who’s driving in the press photos.

The VW BlueSport. An affordable midengined car in the spirit of the Karmann Ghia(?) or Porsche 914. What’s not to like?

Rest in peace, VXR8/SS/Commodore. You will be dearly missed.

Why must EVERYTHING be a race issue? Why is EVERYTHING “cultural appropriation” now?

For fucks sake, why must EVERYTHING be a race issue nowadays?

How many black and hispanic execs can they find that are willing to work for Uber? There aren’t many of them, and most of them already have positions at stable companies.
