EV’s a much simpler than combustion cars. You won’t need a mechanic to work on most issues since it lacks the complicated parts that break down on combustion cars (engine parts, transmission problem, exhaust, fluid changes, fuel system, etc) What exactly would you need a regular mechanic to do on a EV car?

A compact crossover is a hatchback with more expensive tires and shittier gas mileage all so you can think you’re cooler.

A wagon does all the things you just said. Heck, my xB does all that and probably has more backseat legroom.

SUVs outsell minivans for one and only one reason:

That would be interesting, but I’m not sure the suspension on the Senna is up to the task of running racing slicks. I don’t have information on the Senna, but I do have some comparison data for the P1 GTR and the 650S GT3.

I’m from belgium. The accident had nothing to do with automatic systems. The guy driving just never drove an automatic before and used his left foot to push the clutch in to go into second gear. But what does the left pedal do in an automatic when pushed all the way in? That’s right, it makes cyclist crash into you!

It uses a small amount of rich mixture and a spark to compress a very lean mixture in the rest of the cylinder, so as the piston rises, the lean mix is pushed up against the hot and expanding rich mix, causing the lean mix to ignite from compression, not the spark. Like a diesel. It’s very different.

A drag race is about the least relevant test for these cars. Such a waste. How do they DRIVE? On curvy roads? Steering feel, brakes, throttle response, brakes, handling, dynamics, and on and on.

Nope you are wrong. If you live in say northern Spain, which I do, this rally is still several hours away.

I may only have visitation rights for one weekend each month, but I’m still the cool dad.

Two things of note: the photo was shot through a very wide lens, practically fish-eye, which gives the F-35 a stubby look.

Trump’s good friend Vladimir Putin got to drive a race car.

Hear hear. I hate electric seats. The “infinite adjustability” is a gimmick. They’re heavier, take too long to move, and are one of those things that if it does break, it may render the car virtually inoperable.

Idiot in big, modern truck vs. idiot in big, modern truck isn’t different than smaller modern cars hitting one another. Much of the extra crumpling mass is mangled due to the inertia of the heavier vehicles. We need to regulate how big cars can be if you don’t ACTUALLY need a big car for your occupation. Traffic…

13575 Focus STs built in 2013 is not a huge number of cars, not compared to the couple hundred thousand Foci sold that year and the Fiesta sold maybe half that many per year from 2014 on.

Misplaced your anger is....

Chromappeal; that particular feeling you get when you see a collection of things that you ordinarily wouldn’t want, but because they come in every color of the rainbow, you must have them all.

Without helmets, six point belts, and neck restraints a caged car would actually be more dangerous. Unprotected melon + steel tubing = bad times

The setup on this car your shoulders/head are basically directly in line with B-pilar, you are almost behind it even as a driver. Co-drive is even lower/ closer to main hoop

I’m curious if any of the damage on the photos are from crews/extraction - I can’t tell if that a-pilar is just collapsed or if it tore or it was cut. Looks like main hoop isn’t deformed - but where on earth did the a-pilar tubing end up (see the photo of the car still on its side)?
