Wouldn’t it be great if they all make deals, and everyone’s deal is cancelled out by all of the other evidence the rest of them give?

Hey Matt-

Funny, Gizmodo is in a Jill Stein bashing tizzy. Wonder who’s paying for this

Well considering the Bolt uses a flat battery pack, it has a lower center of gravity, therefore probably better handling and braking. And the torque curve is quite mean on an electric motor, with no turbo lag, so off the line acceleration is probably better... somewhat... maybe not quite, but good enough (not to…

The Focus RS Mk3 STARTS for about $39kUSD.

Even bog standard 12v car batteries can flambe a car (from this week in Australia).

I as just telling my wife how stupid you appear to be as evidenced by this post, and how you don’t even seem to KNOW that you are stupid, and my wifes comment: “Well, that’s the best kind of stupid to be!”

I know, right? I could get an ugly, smoking, stinking, slow-to-warm-up, gas-guzzling rattle-trap for 36K... OR, a silent, smooth, zero-gas, zero-smell magic-carpet for 6G LESS!!!!

Probably faster off the line.

For the small minority of people who care exclusively about going fast, no contest. Duh. But that is not even close to the reality of the market. CUVs sell better at inflated prices than sedans, and no one buys wagons. Trucks outsell everything. Speed is a niche. I love fast cars, but I’m not kidding myself that I’m…

Belive it or not there are a number of all-EV fans out there. Otherwise they wouldn’t be buying Nissan Leafs versus Nissan Veras. This car will be a huge hit for the EV crowd. The Focus crowd have nothing to do with this market segment thus a poor “comparison”.

The Tesla Model S is sexy, for a sedan. It isn’t sexy in the sense of a super car sexy but that was the intention, to make it look like a normal car that looks good which they have done. If you ask a person who doesn’t know what a Model S to rate it, they would say it looks like a good looking high end car.

According…

I don’t think Tesla is worried. So far based on the specs of upcoming cars in 3-5 years, they are inferior to what Tesla has today.

It all depends what you want. I like both for very different reasons.

When someone says they’re going to Mars, I don’t take them seriously.

I’m all for an American i3 that isn’t as odd...

The Bolt will likely beat it in torque and lower cog

No matter what, Elon wins. Always.

His strategy of creating competition seems to work pretty well.
