That’s the one I’ve seen, out on the QEW.

Vingroup’s got you covered either way

You forgot the “/s”

And in response, TX and FL are authoring new “Big Trucks Only Kill People That Deserve It” laws that mandate taller grills with spikes on them.

also Garbage trucks tend to be cab-over - with great visability forward. School buses have those bars so kids have to walk within view of the driver. Maybe they should add those to the pavement princesses. 

unless the data directly shows that deaths are only occurring when larger vehicles hit legal pedestrians.

Yeah this always made sense to me. I do agree it was probably staged with the expectation that “we’re just not going to plan around it running out of charge and make that the downside” because at the time, that was indeed a HUGE downside!

Rogan said Clarkson and the BBC did “Elon [Musk] dirtier than anybody ever did” with their review of the Tesla.

Yes? 100% it does.

“In the review, Clarkson commented on the poor range of the car, which lasted just 55 miles on a race track, and claimed that it took an eye-watering 16 hours to top the battery up once again.”

First Gear: For the love of god, Tesla (and Waymo and the rest), stop forcing the public to participate in your half-baked experiments against their will.

For the sake of efficiency Telsa coin aka Musk money can only be purchased with Russian rubles. 

I would say that 7HP/100 is probably too much for most people.

I’m exhausted with the whole “1,000 hp is the new 500 hp” trend. Every single build you see now had a completely unusable amount of power outside of a drag strip.

To simplify:

300 for a small-ish car?  That seems nuts to me.  I have just short of 300 in my Telluride and that feels like a lot more than needed.  I only say this because way too many people are out there abusing the power.

I’m usually pretty happy with 90ish. 

250. There is not a single rational use where 250 cannot be justified as enough (assuming proper torque). Is more nice? Sure! Do I think the world is ending because like a dozen people are going to buy a 1000hp Hummer EV’s? Not really. But if you can’t have fun, or tow, or comfortably cruise at highway speeds with…

Because of the points you bring up, probably the answer should be expressed as a ratio. I’d suggest maybe 7hp/100lb is “enough” for most people and situations.

Not to mention gutting the Supercharger team right on the cusp of a massive expansion opportunity. The charging network is the reason Tesla was so successful with early adopters, and is one area where the company still really shines.  Muskrat finally convinces other automakers to use his charging standard, people in…
