That was a surprisingly flat landing! I thought it was going to pitch hard but nope went up and came down level.

Dibs on the headlights...

It's a software hack so you could put it back to stock anytime and to get a 90k car for 50k over just a software tweak? Yeah I'd do that.

Cause the batteries are expensive and it would get hacked so that people pay nothing.

While not AWD Toyota Highlander, Ford Escape, Chevy Tahoe and several others offer 4wd hybrids with stability control that would leave most people not knowing the difference.

I thought maybe a minivan myself... The 4runner looks pretty different.

Yeah so... Every company I've worked for has done some derivation of this, why be angry at CVS?

Forget different spares. How about cheap tires in general? Why did the Toyobaru have hybrid tires? Unacceptable!

Drivers like Lindsay Lohan shouldn't ever have any car.
They are going to kill someone cause they don't give a shit.

The problem here is that this is a vehicle for a very small market... Most of just don't give a crap about subaru vans. The few that do might think this is the best one ever and you only need one person that thinks your price is right in order to sell.

If you don't believe me check the operating principle and and the uses section of turbochargers in Wikipedia. A turbo compresses air at around 70% efficiency your engine compresses it at about 40% The turbo is a gain in efficiency.

Nope, I'm not, the turbo takes kinetic energy(speed) and potential energy (compression) from the exhaust and and salvages that into the intake in the form of kinetic and potential energy into the intake aiding the engine in compression(now the engine does not need to work as hard to compress the air to the final…

Science and wikipedia disagree.

Yes but power plants are only %60 percent efficient and and transmision losses are usually 7% and the battery charger loses about another 10%so the actual efficiency of an electric car is .87*.6*.93*.9= ~45% Not bashing, I really want an electric car but you have to compare apples to apples and start from where the…

Turbos take a lot of their energy from the exhaust heat so they actually do produce the same amount of power as a larger NA but more efficiently. They have to be designed right but conservation of energy allows the possibility of turbos being more efficient than NA.

Ah, I didn't know your heritage :) Makes more sense now

If there was a "bespoke look" those switches would be it though :-)

I don't think you understand what the word bespoke means, it doesn't mean nicer looking, it just means custom to the user. Bespoke suits don't use special buttons not used on any other suit. Just that the customer picked the buttons especially to go with that suit, same with the lining and the outer. Still made in the…

You don't have to be born a US citizen to hold a government office...

But it's not bespoke. Maseratis aren't that high end. It's only high end for a mass produced car. Maserati designed an entire Chrysler model at one point.
