“Ten years in the automotive realm is kind of a long time but also not— that covers what, two product cycles max?”

Agreed, they are not making very much headway in EV development.

Good article. I didn’t realize this til right now... in 50 years when there are more EVs on the road we will see similar panics when a natural disaster such as an earthquake or tornado destroys electrical infrastructure. Yes the infrastructure is fixable but we’ll see weeks where people cant drive their cars.

Ha! I thought the same thing.

True dat.

Great looking Arteon. I am seriously considering buying and Arteon sedan. Wish they’d sell the Arteon wagon in the US>

Hope they sell this in the US. I’ll trade in my car for one in a heartbeat.

I really like the looks of the new VWs. I’d totally buy one. And this is coming from someone who owns 2 cars from the big 3.

“So the Tiguan isn’t compact, and it certainly isn’t sporty. Unless your sport involves standing still.”

I was wondering the same

Ha!

My car is cliched... Lowered, cammed, muffler delete, yellow fog lights, blacked out tail light bezels, black rims, painted calipers. I try not to go too far by not adding aero parts, or effects lighting. But I want those things. 

I hate those things. Someone should make a horror movie about them. 

3rd Gear, I’m not worried. Captain Marvel always saves the day.

Agreed. I’m starting to wonder if Alonso is ever going to finish a race ahead of Ocon

That was a good race. Elizabeth, what’d you think if the midfield battle at the end when Alonso was defend a pack of hungry cars. Pretty good racing.

My 1968 Mustang. It didn't have power brakes or AC but looked fantastic. I was starting to commute more for work and the car wasn't ideal. I'm now on the fence about trading in my lowered and cammed Camaro, but I know I'll regret it. 

This will fail. Car people like technical details that shows like Fastest Car, and Hyperdrive (Netflix) fail to offer. 

“because the inevitable comparisons to the original Top Gear aren’t really fair”

Ya, Acura must have been an ad. I have an LS3 Camaro, I freaking hate Acura sedans, Acura crossovers, and Acura SUVs. I'm on the fence about trading mine in. I'd rather drive a mid priced Subaru over an Acura. Just a glorified Honda. Nothing wrong with Honda, seriously.
