You don’t see tetanus in cars very often, but leave it to these two to know when to take the car to a doctor.

With proportions like these, we’re almost low enough to border on tall wagon country. At this rate, we’ll have all sorts of upright wagon-oids in a few years.

Good UX design is part of how banks compete with each other. I don’t think “our pumps have the best interfaces!” would be enticing enough of a draw to be worth the extra investment. Price, location, rewards, that’s about it I think.

I think FancyKristen is starting to take over the rest of her brain.

So it’s an isolated expressway in a controlled environment for self driving cars, so they can all drive as fast as they can with no obstacles besides each other. That’s... actually a pretty great idea.

Would have looked so much better if they smoothed out the wheel arch flares. It looks wrinkled and squished like someone sat on the clay model.

The scooters should be able to be remotely driven from a control center and shepherded into designated parking spots. Seems like it could be done with some clever design changes without increasing the price of the scooters. Might even make costs lower long term if they can be waddled back to charging pads.

Is this the length to which we must now go to get a reasonably low load floor? 

This is only 10 hp less than a Frontier, and on a smaller frame. Should be enough to tow 3000 pounds or so

As long as it’s not too hard to turn the intrusive stuff off if you know what you’re doing, this seems like a great idea. It’s almost like jailbreaking your phone - it’s not hard for an enthusiast, but most people don’t know how or even care about doing so.

Water is bad for trying to put out an electrical house fire (or any other building) since the wires could still be live and shock you. With a vehicle fire, it’s a lot easier to keep yourself insulated from electrical hazards.

No. Tall hatchbacks and wagons are good. These are weird lifted blobs.

They’re probably both staying. People that want something that looks like a hybrid and people that don't are different markets.

Give them a long roof and a tall-ish cabin, keep the floor low, and just call them ‘sport crossovers’ or something. Tall hatchbacks like the Soul and Prius V (62-63") are already taller than subcompact crossovers (60-63"), and most hatchbacks are imperceptibly shorter (57-59").

Clubman? 

Manuals are pretty much for fun only, and they have been ever since they got the same mileage as manuals, i.e. around when 6-speed autos and lockup torque converters came out.

The matte silver trim in back makes it look way too much like a Highlander

I see like eight different parting lines in there, plus threaded inserts, plus it’s hollow so it either has to have air blown in or some kind of crazy collapsing core. Plus there’s probably conformal cooling in the mold.

This is the first time I’ve heard of the IL secretary of state without his name and picture attached.

It’s a tall hatchback that is styled like a tall hatchback. Hey, Every Other Car Maker, look! Remember these? They still sell well! Please make more!
