It doesn’t piss me off, haha. I’m just stating it could have been designed better, in a way that incentivizes the manufactures to offer EV’s sooner rather than later and creates even competition between manufacturers regardless of when they enter the market. 

The cost of entry is much higher early on. All the development work to drive down costs by the early investors will benefit any manufacture that decides to join the party late. So what’s the benefit of jumping in? Competitors will be able to offer a much cheaper option if they just wait it out. Just look at the…

1st: This is the problem with the current tax credit. It rewards companies that wait as long as possible to get into the EV market, and punishes those jump in early. It should have always been a tax credit that diminishes with time (becomes less and less each year).

I would think there is a lot more design freedom with a unibody EV vs a traditional ICE body-on-frame truck

The ol’ Michigan left.

Man, this article reads like the world would be better without Chrysler and they shouldn’t even try.

Part of me is happy that this long forgotten vehicle has a second life, part of me is sad it will still remain bin of rust without a proper restoration or restomod conversion.

“Over the last 18 months Ken has played a significant role in rebuilding Aston Martin Lagonda’s financial position and setting the business on a strong pathway for the future,”

I suggest you talk to engineers that have worked at FCA.

The FCA way has always been waiting for the rest of the industry to develop new technology and then implement it when costs have been driven down by everyone else. Doesn’t work when they’re up against emission laws

My take: Faster Charging rates and more charging stations will make people less range conscious and allow for cheaper EV’s to enter the fold.

If you’re wondering what David’s yard looks like, as someone who drives by it on the daily, it’s exactly what you think.

To be honest, we’re still pretty early in the devlopment of electric vehicles, and issues like this are expected to crop up in parts/tech that don’t have many years of use to learn from. I’m not necessarily saying fires are to be expected but issues none-the-less.

Don’t quote me on this, but I would think the limit of the vehicle would start becoming how many sustained G’s the drivers can withstand.

That’s why I think they’re putting so much effort into “Full Self Driving Mode”, and putting it out there in spite of all the criticism. Even as competitors pop up with competitive vehicles in terms of quality and performance, FSD will be something that sets Tesla apart especially since other companies won’t want to…

Yeah, but this is China where patent and copyright laws are merely suggestions.

Ford is currently assembling a team of lawyers.

I would also love a review that explains how it stacks up against the competition regardless of how the outside looks.

Literally any Chrysler vehicle post Mercedes ownership

“Yeah, I’m so nervous I can barely sleep. I mean, it’s so horrible to fight for a title. I really hate it. Those comments, it just shows you that he really doesn’t know me – which is fine. I also don’t need to know him, how he is. I’m very relaxed about all those things and I really can’t be bothered, I’m very…
