Must be a GM thing...

Came here to say this. I can never unsee it. Looks like shit. I can’t believe they’re still doing it. I’m sure they could engineer a better solution than that if they’d actually try.

Indeed, it sounds like he’s answering two separate questions - Will it have a manual? (A: we built it, depends on whether you people will buy it) and Will it come in right hand drive? (A: Of course you morons it’s a Japanese car company and Japan is a RHD country)

Why wouldn't the concept headlights pass safety regulations?

Indeed, you cannot unsee this:

Hell yeah suicide doors! I had no hope of those making it to production but they are sweet nonetheless.

Yeah... even with all the fancy off-road bits, it’s still disappointing compared to the concept. The sharp, boxy styling, narrower grille and horizontal rectangular headlights of the concept look A LOT better:

Fair point, although I think a lot of investor interest in Tesla and its valuation is based on the potential that, as their technology evolves, they may one day become more than just a car company. Otherwise, I doubt they’d be able to raise enough capital to sustain the business and do the things they’re doing.

I don’t give two fucks about Ford’s attempts at electric/autonomous vehicles, because I’m never going to buy one. Ford is not Tesla. And regardless of the amount of bloviating coming from the C-suite, Ford stock is never going to be valued like a tech company, because Ford is not a tech company.

I rented a Fiesta for an extended period of time and LOVED it. As someone who never had any interest in a subcompact hatchback, it totally changed my opinion of them. Not only is it a good, practical, efficient, affordable car, I found it genuinely fun to drive and I was a little sad to see it go. IMO Ford was on a…

If true, that would be a damn shame. If they would actually move the Continental to the RWD-based platform it deserved all along, I’d probably buy one.

I HATE CAB FORWARD AND I HOPE IT STAYS WHERE IT BELONGS... IN THE 90s

Goddammit, Audi... seriously?

Thanks Volvo!

At first glance I thought dually, but looking closer at the wheels I’m not so sure it is.

It looks like a CLA with shittier exterior design. Sorry, Mercedes.

The shifter is always in the same position; it’s like a toggle switch, not a typical selector, so you pull back once from Park to Neutral, then pull back once from Neutral to Drive...To go back to Park, by the way, requires you to push a separate button.
