I still can’t say I’m excited about it. I am glad to see it no longer looks like a doofus.

Not sure what figures you’re looking at, but Dodge has sold over 41,000 Challengers YTD in the US:

As we’ve gone over before, the electric powertrain is essential to the bus being feasible, because otherwise VW couldn’t package it properly and still meet global safety regulations.

I can’t give this enough stars. And those are just the exotics. The state of the hybrid/electric/economy car segment has been even more disturbing. Look:

Yes, I agree it’s not a bad design language at all, and I think the CT6 wears it exceptionally well - that car has great presence on the road. You can tell it takes cues from the Elmiraj, which is perhaps the perfect embodiment of what A&S can be.

Makes sense, especially if they intend to bring out a smaller, RWD-based (!!) A3-fighter and the CT5 to fill the space. The back seat of the ATS is awful tight for the segment, especially considering how competitors like the 3 series and A4 have grown (for better or for worse). And the CTS, while a great car, suffered…

Good. I would never, ever forgive GM if they axed the CT6. It’s the stately, full-size, long wheelbase, RWD-based luxury sedan I’ve been waiting 15+ years for them to build, and now that it’s finally on the market, I can’t imagine they’d kill it after, what, two years? The thing is gorgeous, and has some serious…

I will never, ever forgive GM if they ax the CT6. It’s the stately, full-size, long wheelbase, RWD-based luxury sedan I’ve been waiting 15+ years for them to build, and now that it’s finally on the market, they’re already thinking about killing it? Because of the SUV/CUV craze (that will surely reverse as soon as gas…

It has the proportions of a minivan... seriously, what did they expect?

Ocean City, Maryland.

Uhh... It looks like a big, curvy 6-series with an ugly grille that is way, WAY too big for the car.

I’m SO glad the beak is gone, but now we have that big honkin Acura badge out there to contend with, and a grille that is simply too big for the car. Sorry, Acura.

Good on ya, BMW.

Captain has a thing for Sandra Bullock, took it a bit too far...

I like quad tips, I do... but unless Ford is building an Explorer RS, they don’t really belong here. That being said, I do think they would look better if they were a bit bigger and a little more prominent. In those photos, they look too small for the vehicle and a little silly tucked up in there, hiding under the…

Dat interior...

But it is! Holy shit! And it’s gorgeous!

If a car comes with pedestrian avoidance technology, can we dispense with the “pedestrian safety” design elements - tall, bumped up hoods, gaping maws, etc. - that ruin so many new car designs?

To be fair, Jeep sells about as many Wranglers as they do Cherokees and Grand Cherokees. While I don’t mind FCA producing CUVs if it is profitable for them, the Wrangler can stand on its own two feet, so to speak.

That last one... hooooly shit
