Um, the EPA sticker with mileage is an ESTIMATE, not a guarantee...
My exact thoughts. They aren’t replacing anything, which means the problem still exists. So they are using software to limit charging to 90%.
I would never include my address on a resume. I work in the public sector now, but in a past life I worked in the private sector in the advertising field (on the media planning side). I can write an entire book from all of my (mis)adventures - like a supervisor having a full blown mental breakdown at the office (we…
My concern is that in real life they won’t be as quick. Several of the new EVs like the ID4 are VERY lackluster in acceleration. Even the base model 3 has good performance (not mind blowing), but the base models of other EV are focusing on battery longevity and range over speed. Only the “GT” models have respectable…
While the GT is tempting, what has piqued my interest more is the Kia/Hyundai twins that utilize the 800v charging. If I could charge in 1/4 the time (15 minutes instead of an hour) that may sway me from the other choices.
The “octo” in Octovalve means 8, and if you look at one it’s a hellava lot more than 8. Just disconnecting the piping from that “water pump” would be a heck of a task...
Other than the motor and transmission (somewhat), electric cars are just as and even more complicated that ICE vehicles.
535D owner here. My 465LB/ft torque is probably more than the Cruze and Prius combined.
There’s really no need to stress over the design because it’s...well...a sedan.
So now the new Mustang Mach E’s will crash by themselves when leaving Cars and Coffee...
There’s a reason people like him aren’t part of a group called IQ-Anon...
Any onramp/off-ramp in CA. Whoever designed our freeways was a sadist.
Attached is an example of the 680/4 interchange - which consists of cloverleaf onramps and off-ramps. In this instance, you have about 2 seconds to check for clearance, signal and merge, all while accelerating from 30 to about 70. And the best part?…
‘69, baby!
How to bloat your browser and system to LOOK like Chrome, but run like shite...
The problem with this method is that one company will have to invest to flesh out that standard. Then the car co next door can simply look at what was done and go “yeah, that’s good. We’ll do that” without needing to develop it, test it, etc. It’s the same standard, which means all the specs and details that were…
I’m sure, like Tesla, they will limit the amount of time per month you can use the chargers. Both to free up chargers for other users and to protect the battery...
I’m open to using $/C8 for supercars and exotics, Changli’s for typical cars, and rusty Jeeps for “NP or ND”
