We developed the first car in 1885 - should we have of stopped improving driving after?

Do you have any cleaner ways to launch payloads into space? SpaceX cut payload cost tremendously and allowed smaller ventures to launch their own satellites into space. Do you ever do the calculous on innovation vs. emission? Your only reasonable alternative is to not explore space at all, for the sake of emissions.…

Reminds of the infamous Japan Airlines food poisoning incident in 1975 - all 197 passengers onboard were sick from the food, and catering director ended his life from the ensuing fallout

Just incredible that it took hours to realize they should return to the gate and disembark. I hope everyone on that flights takes Delta for everything they have. Unacceptable

that’s a nice mustang. I am thinking of the vanity plate “PROOF” or “EDIT”

Can’t complain about my current lineup

Austerity is the only way to cut emissions from travel, pure and simple. The US is massive, and even a Japanese style rail system would still mean 2 days of travel to get from LA to NYC... and absolutely no one is going to make that trade off.

I am disappointed that no major OEM has worked with Braun to ship a partially disassembled version of a van for cost savings, or at least worked to build in disability considerations into their product lines. It’s something that - given a leadership chance - I would work very hard to get through. Simply unacceptable…

Ah yes, I am an abhorrent monster because I don’t want tankie hot takes bundled with updates on new cars

This. This is why I keep coming back to Jalopnik. Because even amid the shit political takes no one asked for, you guys publish interesting, relatable and thoughtful pieces on why all of us are irrationally attached to depreciating metal death machines on wheels

Eat the rich. 

MONEY BAD TANKIE GOOD ARREST ALL PEOPLE WITH CARS

basically back in the 90s. The C-HR is the Paseo, this is the Tercel, the RAV-4 is the Corolla, Highlander is the Camry

I mean, yes, that’s how planning a factory works. You shop around for the best deal, and settle where it makes sense the most. Spain’s proximity to suppliers and presumably cheaper labor base all bode well. Best of luck to Ineos wherever they end up

A Camry V6 has the same 0-60 time while getting better real-world fuel economy, using a more reliable conventional auto, and the 2GR-FSE has by now had it’s flaws ironed out. What’s the point of added mechanical complexity if there’s no real-world gain in efficiency or speed?

much deep. such social commentary. so insight

Erik, you do realize that car shows are the last remaining place where young car enthusiasts can experience a microcosm of the industry in one place? I distinctly remember falling in love with the industry seeing the then-new LS460 self park at the 2007 Chicago Auto Show, and I’m only 25. I’m sure plenty of…

imagine needing that shit to drive. It’s got what I need in the base price

I live in Chicago, a few blocks from where the riots reached Saturday. Though it’s scary to see the damage come to close to where I live, I am beginning to understand the systemic pain and heartache that lead to those actions. The fact that we are having these discussions hopefully means that this time, it’s…
