see there is no window there
was mostly joking. subaru doesnt make anything id want to own
and if you know how to angle mirrors correctly there is no such thing as a blind spot
it already has that blind spot. there is no window there
if youre getting a car for your dog the clear answer is subaru
smaller lighter wagons are great. this is why i got a VW alltrack. though its considered smaller today it still has a ton of space and cargo and weighs 3400lbs with AWD and an auto and full roof sunroof do by todays standards its pretty light
if you need more range then buy it. but if you dont you are just spending more for a car with more capacity and lugging around hundreds of extra lbs of battery capacity you wont hardly ever use. I think all EVs should come with optional battery capacity so you can buy a 120mile range version for less and weigh 1000lbs…
I really think they could make it look a lot better with some small roofline changes
but gas cars dont provide the same utility as electric cars. you cant refuel your gas car at home and leave the house every morning with a full tank of gas. its two different set of benefits.
prob because people realize they almost never drive that far in one day
The Toyota Matrix was great
the alternative to the GTS i would buy is the Lotus Emira
yeah really thinking this will be a blast to drive. Its also expected to weigh just over 3000 lbs. The cayman GTS is 3200+ and 394hp so i think this will compare favorable to it.
I think the biggest threat to Tesla will be the rise of the cheap electronics giants getting into EVs. Chinese and Taiwanese autos coming out of companies like FoxConn whose known for making cheap electronics will soon be making very cheap EVs. That i think is the real competitor that will start to rise in popularity…
it also does not make sense for long range high hp vehicles. the amount of hydrogen that would be needed would take up a massive percentage of the total space on the vehicle and it wont be adopted until the stations are everywhere and stations wont be everywhere until there are sufficient number of trucks on the…
To make green hydrogen you have to use electricity. so its efficiency of producing hydrogen at 60% efficient is AFTER the electricity is already generated. So if you used coal to generate electricity then power a fuel cell from its electricity it looks like this
21% efficient electricity generation from coal
- 40% loss…
LOL Its not a matter of weight of hydrogen, its a matter of volume. a Toyota Mirai can only hold about 4.5 kg of hydrogen because of how much space it takes up. and because of the weight of the tanks the car weighs 4500lbs and only has 175hp.
airplanes are quite different than cars. but before the airline industry can switch to hydrogen we will have light weight batteries and they will likely never ramp up hygdrogen planes before they switch to electric. but thats all decades away
yes it does
