I dunno, segment seems appropriate as the EU describes it. The only thing that matters about a car’s size is if it’ll fit somewhere. Whether or not it’s big on the inside is entirely dependent on design decisions and it should be the buyer’s problem to figure out if a car is big enough inside for them.

This is fundamentally the problem. Interior dimensions don’t take into account all of the added exterior bulk. For instance, with the proliferation of ‘butch’ vehicles, large wheel/tire diameters eat up a lot of space in the footprint of the vehicle with their bigger/wider wheel wells and associated suspension…

That’s great logic and all, but I can get the same size jeans from levi’s but depending on the style it seems to drastically alter the actual inseam and waist.

Still driving my Chevy Bolt going on 4 years so I’m definitely taking the gas slap like Rock took from Smith... with barely a reaction and not even rubbing my face afterwards.

Dude come on. The Macan is one of the best driving vehicles in the world because of the attention it gets from Porsche. You really think if they made an A4 sized sedan, it would drive worse than a Macan? You think a 340i is worse to drive than an X3? An Accord versus a Pilot? A Mazda 3 versus a Cx-30 or Cx-5? A Golf…

BMW’s future styling direction is genuinely abysmal - on track to be the worst in the U.S. market within this decade, and the sole thing that will keep the company afloat is brand recognition (because it sure as shit isn’t going to be reliability or heat seaters that require a fucking subscription).

Nope, not interested in giving my tax dollars to greedy oil companies. I’d rather all office workers be given an unassailable right to work from home with NO strings attached. That solves the problem for a ton of people without a single penny of my tax dollars being wasted.

People are just completely irrational about gas prices. You save $2 per gallon, so that’s what, like $20? Or $30 if you have a big car and your tank is almost completely empty? And according to Google Maps, Tijuana is 20 miles and 40 min away from San Diego, or 40 miles and 80 min round-trip. So you use 1.5 gallons on…

My mom has a base 4 cyl Macan that I’ve driven extensively. Suffice to say it can’t outhandle a good sports wagon, never mind a proper sports car. Plus it’s far more cramped than you'd think. I’ll never understand the appeal of these things...

Are you and your company deeply tied to the leader of a regime who is invading a foreign country? Is your company the result of massive graft and you were able to purchase a state owned company for pennies on the dollar? Is your wealth tied to corruption and being best buds with a maniac with delusions of recreating…

I guess it depends on where you live and all that. I have only seen a handful of Urui, but I see regular Lamborghini’s much more frequently. I honestly think the SUV vs car’s have very different buyers. People that buy the SUV want it for the name and/or symbol, people that buy the cars want them for the car. But that…

It may be as fast but it won’t feel as good to drive and will look indistinguishable from a $30K crossover from more than 100ft away while doing it. 

Ferrari will have a wild sales success with this new SUV and it will help with keeping the rest of the product line churning out

probably because they did a whole superiority dance years ago saying they were too good to ever make an suv to appeal to normies. 

But, until further details are announced, are you excited at the prospect of the Ferrari Purosangue?

Hello from Jalopnik!
Many engines will burn about a quart between service intervals (often 10,000 to 15,000 miles today) and you’ll find that the automaker and its technicians will find such burn to be completely normal.

Part of the problem was that, in the X-class’ key markets, Mercedes has a strict division between luxury cars versus grimy work vehicles. Well, lots of carmakers do, but with Mercedes it’s really strict.

Well Audi indirectly has made trucks before in the past... back in the Auto Union days under DKW:

Jalopnik: the only site calling this a tax. Literally every other story I found on this after googling called it, correctly, a surcharge that is going straight to the oil companies pockets. 

That’s not a tax, that’s profit.
