On my most recent charge to 100% on my LR AWD Ioniq 5, the indicated range was over 550km (340 miles). You can get 300 miles easily with fairly normal driving. The Taycan range is much better at higher speeds, but overall the Ioniq has outperformed our expectations.

With big batteries, HP is basically free. And customers love HP, so that’s what they give ‘em. Lowering max power would have a negligible effect on range, mainly due to not being able to accelerate as quickly. The bodywork and big wheels have a greater effect on range than big HP numbers.

1990 Toyota pickup xtra cab —> 2004 Scion xA RS 1.0 -> 2009 Camry Hybrid -> 2016 Highlander Hybrid -> Tesla Model 3 and Model Y

Toyota led the field in fuel efficiency, and to some extent, still does. What they failed to account for (maybe because they were going all in with hydrogen), was that many buyers who valued…

Neutral: I had a Toyota I absolutely loved - a Matrix XR wagon. Loved it so much I owned two of them - a 2005 and a 2008. Flash forward to 2018 and my Toyota options were a RAV4 - but I didn’t want an SUV - the CH-R or the Corolla iM - which were awful for rear seat passengers and cargo space compared to the Matrix.…

I know the answer (still gettin the clicks) but can we move on from this topic?  

And in news getting significantly less coverage:

Not to wish ill on those on board, but I think I would prefer a catastrophic failure to put a quick end to me rather than sitting in the dark for 4-5 days waiting to suffocate.

This sounds like OC is so many ways... and the RPV people probably then flip the fuck out constantly at things claiming they live in hell. 

The Lordstown Asthma, new for 2023!!!

Beat me to it haha

Just get a Honda Pilot and save a lot of headaches and money.

Cathay Pacific Airlines is an airline from Hong Kong and existed before Hong Kong was a part of China, back when Hong Kong was a British protectorate. They were the second-best airline in the region (and still are), second only to Singapore Airlines.

Why am I not surprised? I only wish that people like my Grandad, who fought literal Nazis during WW2 could come back as young men to beat the living shit out of these assholes. 

You accomplished nothing, but you also did it poorly.

Brace yourselves for the orthodontics jokes...

We will never know since the CCP suppresses any data that makes them look bad.

Hyundai’s “$7,500 Lease Bonus Cash” is bullshit. I test drove a Kona EV at Vision Hyundai in Rochester, NY and when I came back I talked lease prices with the sales person. I had just read online about the bonus cash so I asked him what the lease would be with subtracting the $7,500. He told me “the $7,500 bonus was…

Good point. Dealing with car seats, especially infant seats, was a lot easier with a sliding door.

I’m “that guy.” If the CEO wasn’t an unhinged genius who I have no intention of supporting financially or otherwise, I’d probably have a Tesla parked in my garage now, and if not I’d have ordered a Y at this fire sale price. It’s not like the class-leading infrastructure is going away, and I’d have this fancy high…

Before anyone starts quoting self defense and “stand your ground” laws, these examples are all straight up murder. There isn’t even a debate over it. The perpetrators are going to prison, where they belong.
