I noticed, on the past years, a new car subculture forming, focused on creating improbable amalgams of different car styles. Let’s call them “shockers”.

A Porsche 911 Turbo S does 23 mpg HWY, which is a bit shy of 10 km per liter. The Chery Celer, a 1.5l Chinese crapcan does 10.5 km per liter. It’s funny to do this comparison.

The satellite can be so secretive, that they’re saying the launch and orbit insertion failed, and reverberating this all over the media, so people will believe it really failed. Seriously, this is probably the 300th I read this today. Goebbels said a lie repeated a thousand times…

“Data is for people who lack conviction.”

Crossovers/SUVs. This will sum 2018.

In southern Brazil, there’s a small crustacean, related to the Japanese giant pseudopod, called Tatuira:

Want a capybara inspired car? Brazilian Chevrolet got you covered with the Spin:

Why do people need fancy mechanical wrist watches when your phone touch screen does the same?

Next step, a Gurgel! What do you think of the Motomachine, with plexiglass doors for maximum visibility?

You call this a zero star crash test? Just check out Latin NCAP’s results for the bestseller car in Brazil, the Chevrolet Onix. Unlike the Punto, which is a 15 year old car, the Onix is a completely new project, which debuted in late 2012, roughly 5 years ago:

Windows in the doors? Gurgel, from the same country as Senna did it first, with the motomachine.

How many miles can you drive one of those appliances before they turn onto 2000+ lb paperweights with a 30 mile range?

Brap brap brap brap brap brap BRAAAAAAAAAP

That’s not the only Mia known. There’s that adult entertainer as well...
