I respectfully disagree. I think at a minimum, battery voltage could be standardized, which would allow a smaller legion of suppliers to make batteries that would fit in multiple cars. Take, for example, the 12v battery that we’re all used to. They are made by a small list of manufacturers and within a few shapes, all

OK, so here are my thoughts on EVs right now. I think these manufacturers NEED to work together and truly streamline everything. There is no reason we should have different batteries/motors/controls/etc. from one car to another. Take electric RC cars as an example...you don’t need to have different LiPo packs from one

This is so obvious it hurts my brain to imagine why it took automakers even 5 minutes of thought to determine that buttons/switches are preferred. It’s not like we need them for everything...just the stuff you change on literally every drive. Here are the buttons I touched this morning on my 8 minute drive to the

I was thinking about the exact same thing!  He is such a garbage snake oil salesman.  No wonder he gets along with Trump

So when are we just installing a generator in the bed?

Yes, exactly this.  Couldn’t remember the name, so thank you.  Anyway, they are perfect because they are NOT designed to be “sexy” or “cool” or anything Elon would awkwardly say at a marketing event.  They were designed to be efficiently packaged means of transporting people and things of all shapes and sizes.

The fact that this van, which has a history in America of getting people out and about all over the place doesn’t have a hybrid option, or even a small range extender is a huge miss in my opinion.  There are TONS of places in this huge country that have near-zero options for charging, and for something that is

Personally, I think BMW had the right idea with the i3 with the range extender. Someone needs to refresh that idea with a small motor capable of taking advantage of the new 400- and 800-volt packs.  Then, you could end up with the benefits of an EV, and you’d just be hauling around a small generator...not a full ICE

Frankly, why a “cab” would look like anything other than a London cab, or one of those NV things is beyond me.  This vehicle should be 100% focused on cabin space, comfort, cargo, etc.  Not vanity.  But Elon doesn’t get that.

I’m not normally a litigious person, but I would absolutely sue the dealership for this.  If I’m test driving a car, I’m obviously assuming the dealer has complied with license plate rules.  You’re telling me I’m supposed to verify they’ve put the plate on the car and the registration is current and all that?  I’m

I was going to say the same thing.  This must’ve been conceived in 2004 and it just took 20 years to finish and he didn’t want to get new lights off eBay.

Double floor mats tells me no go.

For $15k that engine bay better be fuckin mint.

So the design was made by telling Adobe’s AI to make a car that looks like a mashup of a Model 3 and a Cybertruck?  Cool.  Cool cool cool.

Why not under a flip-up license plate at the middle of the rear bumper like ye olden tymes?

Better not scratch it!  If ever there was a car to buy and park in a hermetically sealed garage....this is it.  lol

Cool. Another completely irrelevant (to me) car announcement. But I’ll still pay attention

Did he die from radiation poisoning?  <tin hat mode on>

This isn’t even a GOOD Jeep...why would anyone do this?

I’m on the fence with this one.  I see the rationale for keeping AM radio alive, but I don’t think it needs to be MANDATED in every new car.  Let people decide if they want that feature.  For me, I would opt out of the satellite radio receiver, as I’ve never subscribed, nor do I plan to.  It’s terrestrial FM and
