Something’s wrong: The hood doesn’t obstruct the view out the windshield!

These cars are already performance bound by the limits of traction - not the power they can get from their electric motors - I recon ranges will increase, and handling dynamics may change if lighter solid state batteries can be used, etc —- but I can’t imagine there’s a lot of straight line performance left on the…

Do you need more than Level 1 charging? If you’re home 12 hours, that’s ~60 miles of range your adding, no work required.

My dearly missed 2007 Z4M Coupe. Awesome on perfect roads, dreadful on anything less.

HOLUY *&^%$%^&*&^% WHY ARE THEY DOING THE “PINCHED” RUGGED TRIM LOOK OVER THE WHEEL WELLS LIKE A (*^%$%&*(^&%^ RAV4

I wonder how straight his frame is after that. Wait - are Rivians body-on-frame? Or unibody?

“It’s the first production vehicle to pair a naturally aspirated engine with electric all-wheel drive.”

Sometimes I feel like the slideshow captions are penned by someone hired from Fiverr with little actual domain knowledge.

I guess my question is really - whats the point of shoehorning an F1 drive train into a streetable car, when you can get similar performance from a much simpler technology stack?

Not to be that guy --- but this is a lot of engineering to achieve essentially the output of a Model S Plaid.

You don’t have to kill for it. You can just buy a 4Runner and get it painted or wrapped.

I think you’re right - as the former owner of the M version of the Z4 and an M54 equipped 3-series, the 3.0si is right take - lovely engine, not comically high strung, and the right engine / transmission match.

I’m not sure that’s actually a ZHP interior. IIRC there’s alcantara inserts on the steering wheel, shifter boot and seats that I can’t see in that interior picture.

Oddly yes, though most people are “OMG gas prices have dropped back down for a week! Time to buy a new giant pickup!”

Models 1-29 of the 30 promised will be minor variations on a boring ass mid-sized SUV —- CReV. FWD. AWD. Sunroof, no sunroof. Zzzzzz

Is Cars 2 the one where they torture a car to death by roasting it over a fire? I had to shut that movie off with my 5 year old daughter. Just the worst.

You know - I thought I wanted to see GWAR, till I actually saw GWAR. Then - not so much.

So the way boxes work - here at least - is the box is available to the owner for all of the events that take place at the stadium - that is to say, the box is there and accessible to the owner for every event whether they want to go to it or not. Here, people buy boxes for the NHL season, and if GWAR or someone they…
