You’re kidding, right? These look like concepts other automakers showed back when EVs were not a thing.  This shows nothing of them being remotely serious. They are if anything very far behind.

Oh hell yes:

My issue with turbos in performance cars is that you have 2 variables being controlled by a single input that aren’t directly correlated. The amount of power you get at 5k rpm when pulling hard from a stop can be very different than 5k rpm when downshifting off-boost, and that difference isn’t necessarily intuitive or…

A solution in search of your wallet.

If the regular Panamera wasn’t already a 5dr fastback, maybe the wagon would have sold better.

Wait til musk annouced special wrap packages for the roadster: pay $30k upfront or $100k for the founders edition wrap. 

This exactly. Looking at the photos I was trying to work out which Nissan, Hyundai, or Kia it was a duplicate of. And I have to say I love every Hyundai and Kia out there - they are very stylish for the mass market, but I would not want a Lotus to be confused for one. Very disappointed, Lotus.

Is VW no longer competitive because of costs or because they have a completely uninviting lineup of cars?

True. I’ve always thought of the Taycan as trying to be both a sports car and sedan. So the Taycan has some compromises where a true sedan would not. The Panamera is a real sedan has performance built into it. If they eventually go all electric across most of their line-up (maybe by the next generation of Panamera?),…

The thing to watch is that PURE anything doesn’t work.

And what you just said was a myth. “Everyone” wasn’t poor in the Soviet Union. Just everyone you knew.

Porsche considers Rubystar a shade of red rather than pink

I stand by my assessment that this is THE ugliest car on the road today. I just cannot wrap my head around what they designers were thinking with bulging out every corner and edge like a balloon wrapped with string. I’ll concede that this model year is better than the last where the headlights are hung low, but I…

A brand-new Infiniti QX80. There are so many better choices out there, and by “so many other choices” I mean “literally anything else”. I had the (dis)pleasure of driving one of these as a rental car and it is just as big on the outside, small on the inside, ungainly, and overpriced as I expected.

We test drove an I3 and had their “I3 Specialist” as our salesperson. She bragged about going to a special school about the car. I asked if it was difficult to find a body shop that could repair the carbon fiber tub if it was in a crash. She had no idea what I was talking about and just said it could be repaired at…

“Sadly this rational analysis is trumped by “Elon bad, anything not Elon good.””

“The outlook for Tesla 10 years ago was night and day, with Tesla not only selling three times as many Model Ss as Lucid projects for its 2023 Air deliveries, but doing so with a gross margin of over 20% (compared to Lucid’s -200% or worse gross margins).”

Data has revealed, at least for Tesla 3 and Y, that DC fast charging exclusively does not diminish the battery any more than L2 charging only.

Introducing just another cookie-cutter pickup truck would not have made a dent in the already crowded truck market. The Cybertruck will redefine what a truck looks like and upend the market segment. Just watch and give Tesla a few months to sort out the production logistics. With 1.5 million pre-orders even if only…

It looks like a failed concept for a Decepticon in one of Michael Bay’s “Transformer” films.
