Going full EV. Probably XC40.

Lol, Toyota is stuck playing catch-up right now. I don’ think they’re very happy about it.

I thought automotive companies LOVED subscription-based services. This seems like the perfect place to use one.

I really dislike the design of this EV. I think it cribs too much from existing vehicles, and it’s going to look dated when it eventually gets released.

We have a dog named Tama, which I didn’t even realize was a car until I found about about this a few days ago: https://www.nissan-global.com/EN/HERITAGE/tama_electric.html

Consumers and journalists need to focus more on charging speed than max range.

But the occupants have a myriad of protective devices to help them survive a collision. The person outside has nothing. Shouldn’t that be taken into account?

Yep, this happens fairly often. Deer will run right into the sides of cars. I guess once they start running in a given direction, they don’t want to stop.

The 2nd one has “Road” in the title... So not sure...

For better or worse, those C-pillar contrasting paint sections have become a telltale visual cue for EVs. I don’t know who used it first, but just about all of the newer EVs other than Tesla have it.

Waymo driver.

Didn’t he impose a bunch of facetious requirements on any such dialog, though? It seemed like he wasn’t serious about being open to listen to anyone.

No Sable?

“Regulate us.”

Yes. Like it or not, the Orochi at least has a coherent aesthetic: it’s a goddamn, ugly-ass demon. I don’t know what the hell’s going on with the Trans Am, though.
