The attack of Canadian cars?

Not really. The emission standards in Europe distinguish Diesel and gas engines, allowing for more NOx and PM for the former, whereas in the US the emission standards are the same for both Diesel and gas engines.

Perhaps not as smelly or loud as yore, but still smelly due to the higher sulfur content in Diesel than in gas and louder, as in like a sewing machine or some agricultural implement, than a gas engine. Did I mention the price premium in the upfront maintenance costs of the engine and in the fuel, far above its higher…

The e-AWD system is probably the easiest way to get to AWD as well, and I'm wondering if Kia may actually be serious about this as a possible Renegade/500x competitor. It wouldn't be the worst idea, really, so here's hoping they're not just jerk'stering our chain.

The Volt also has a terrible packaging and the rear seat, though there, is as comfortable as in a 2+2. It's yet another poor execution of a good idea by GM. Not to mention its price-tag, which should be in line with the Prius', even if at a loss, like Toyota did.

NHTSA's defect investigation funding has been flat for about a decade, and this trend of Big Recalls appears to be the new normal. But will more money really help NHTSA get ahead of things?

1st Gear: The Bolt Aims To Beat The Model III

Is that income uptrend merely inflation or is it adjusted according to the inflation rate?

I'll just leave this here too.

Alfa Romeo had a prototype F1 car with two engines in the 30s, one at the front and the other behind the driver. It was a monster, but the rules changed and it was made non-compliant, requiring a change of plans.

Because controlling something that thrives without the government the way that Victorian monopolies are controlled for their own sake is a swell idea.

Sadly, not everyone realizes that trains are unstoppable.

Yes, but the Tesla owner has to be lucky enough to find that watch in a cereal box first.

And, with this 3x5 card, you now know which of all the six types of haircut you are allowed to have. Now, comply or else.

There are usually two big factors that drive most people to "quit" social networks. Either they feel like it's a pointless time-suck full of bad information and poorly informed friends, or they have an objection to the company behind the network. Both objections are easily resolvable. You can be in control of what…

You missed Quattroruote's Vairano track. Even Ferrari tests its cars on it.

Neutral: Will American Sedans Rebound?

"What on earth was ever attractive about an enormous engine that refused to rev, laughably bad brakes, and seats that were essentially couches.?" How's this different from trucks and SUVs? As a matter of fact, because American sedans have been this crappy, Americans felt natural moving to trucks and SUVs. After…

Most routers figure out the best channel to use based on how busy they are. Such advice actually often leads to poor performance, since WiFi can handle other networks on the same channel much better than overlapping channels. That's why of the 13 channels, only channels 1, 6 and 11 are useful because they don't…

Until 6 months ago, I usually slept like a log for 7 to 8h. Since then though, my sleep has been choppy, waking up several times during the night, and often for just 5 to 6h. It's been wreaking havoc in my productivity, stamina and mood. Any helpful tip would be much appreciated.
