And who wouldn’t take fueling advice from a guy named Torch? Thank you Jason for being a voice of reason rather than the pearl-clutching of the rest of the risk-averse Jalopnik staff.

But why a hybrid? The 20 miles of very slow range is useless. It has all the good parts of a McLaren already and performance is about the same. Does the regen braking and takeoff assist really give that much of a mileage boost? What is the EPA rating for this thing anyway?

Tesla realized that infrastructure is key and spent tons of their money to build it. Why shouldn’t that be a strategic advantage? If you want to spur EV uptake, taxing the only automaker doing it right is a really dumb way to do it.

Worn out Nissan Leaf against a broken Fiat 500?

I hope you're right. But you're not. McLaren will finish 5th this year.

But are the arrows sequential?

Ok, Rain Man.

Agreed. They should be investing in EV technology. But this was a marketing exercise and will not do anything to achieve that goal.

The under $30k pre-owned EV credit will be used by college kids whose parents are buying them a car. I can assure you no McDonalds burger flippers are going to buy a used Leaf.

You have a devious mind. That was also my first thought.

Another automaker wasting engineering and marketing dollars chasing EV buzz hoping for a sprinkling of Tesla valuation pixie dust. If you have to keep actually making profits to pay current shareholder dividends, it just doesn’t work.

Just think of the accuracy of mounting the frames to the conveyor, moving the conveyor, and positioning the robot arms to weld or place components. That’s a lot of large-scale stack-ups. Well done Audi, and all automaker industrial engineers for that matter.

Agreed. But the vehicle looks like it was designed on the same CAD system that tossed out the Cybertruck.

Xi said to download space station plans. He should have specified which space station.

Aw c’mon, that has to be a screenshot from a cheap low-poly GTA style game.

Hey, economics works. Who knew?

Yes more good data is better than less or bad data. And guess what? Sometimes that data just shows that different people make different choices and get different outcomes.

I think the White House is being de-gilded.

Both sides hate the ad. See, it worked.

I understand the reference. Dude, we’re old.
