Oh no! You might have the *option* to buy an electric vehicle! You might have the *option* to produce your own power with solar on your house. You might have cheaper cleaner electricity from your utility!

Or, as per the actual article, there needs to be more alternatives, especially in places like cities where driving is inefficient and annoying.

How do I get one of those tin foil MAGA hats?

Shouldnt “autonomous” vehicles not have the ability to be set to auto pilot and go in excess of the posted speed limit? If safety IS your top concern (as Tesla positions “autopilot” to be significantly safer than a human driver) then what is so safe about travelling 68mph on a 55mph road?

Last we checked, the actual voter fraud cases tend to involve republicans.

I kind of get that, though—when I drive around in the XC70, I get the feeling that I can park it on the questionable side of town without a second glance because it’s just a Volvo, yet it doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb once I head up into the ritzier neighborhoods either. In that vein, I feel like Subarus also…

Sounds like Bird and Lime don’t like having their business model disrupted.

BMW has used a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine in its i8 and i3 hybrid models

It’s not smart if you promised the “cheap” buyers a car, later call them up and say “pay more and you MIGHT get the car when we said you would. Maybe.” How is that smart?”

You know, in the Teslaverse the Tesladytes actually believe that Tesla (you know, ‘cause Elon tweeted some bullshit) has “produced the promised $35K Model 3".

If I’ve learned anything in my time reading about transportation issues, it’s that drivers will accept NO reason for in any way limiting their ability to drive or access public commons that are currently available to them. None. Not the climate, not traffic, not improved transit, not 50k deaths a year. Nothing. At…

I’m actually really excited about this. Hear me out as to why, because I am somebody who regularly commutes to Manhattan from Brooklyn via car.

As somebody who actually regularly commutes into Manhattan from the outer boroughs by private car: yes, do this, immediately. It’s super-dumb of me to drive into the city, and adding incentives not to do so would save me a lot of money in the long run.

If you have been around cars for any length of time, and don’t have a love/hate relationship with them, I’m not sure you can really claim any Jalop heritage.

The NIMBY concern is that they’re parked illegally and blocking sidewalks.

The bigger story here is that the G70 just rolled out and isn’t available in major markets. I’m in Southern California, where there are 20+ BMW dealers, and according to Autotrader there are zero (0) G70 sedans within 200 miles of me.

look, you want to give massive tax breaks to the wealthy, you need something to help pay for that

It’s basically a silent Quad Giulia with a prettier design and better interior.
