I’m pretty sure once they’re done with development vehicles; the LIDAR will be hidden in the bumpers.  

Literal hot take.

I just open all the windows, dump the hot air; then roll em up and start the AC.

I guess the door thing works if you don’t want to sit in the hot air for even the 5 seconds it takes to get the car moving.

I’m bored this morning

That headline has nothing to do with the writing about EV Cadillacs. When tf did EV equal ZERO PERFORMANCE?

When did Mary Barra hurt you?

The new Blazer is a good looking car. But it doesn’t look like a Blazer at all.

The Bronco succeeds extraordinarily at modernizing and calling back to the originals.  Shame they couldn’t have the same respect for “Mustang”.

To balance; I like it a lot more than I thought I would.

I already really hate the “sport” for showing its ugly silhouette next to the other two.

This is extremely sad.  And this guy and other “influencers” are the people kids look up to / career they want these days.  Not good.  We have a mental health epidemic.

“You should look up sales statistics of vehicle classes”

I have. Like Mercedes and Tesla.

When the top two luxury marques are going head-first into entry-level sedans, and you’re just catching up to the decade-old crossover craze, yes— you’re behind.

Especially when its happened to Lincoln with every emergent leading vehicle segment for the last 30 years.

I do like the XC40 but its one weak spot from the design is that if you get the roof matched with the body; it looks super chunky.  Hence the two-tone press images.

And they absolutely have the best “corporate design” for working across different vehicle shapes.  

“Buyers: Take my money!”

FFS, can we stop denying reality on Jalopnik?  Lincolns aren’t selling.

“They need to stop cutting so many fucking corners, full stop. The CT4 is a joke compared to even the outgoing A3 , let alone the new one or the A4 right above it. Ditto the BMW and MB equivalents, and ditto every comparable vehicle type at every price point.”

I don’t get how so many people on Jalopnik have such little

I don’t think there is a person in the world that doesn’t want that 2021 Escalade.

Stop that. Sales figures and historical examples are no place for a Jalopnik/Lincoln sausagefest. Remember, around here; GM bad. Ford Good.

“Lincoln is doing great because they are making Lincolns.”

This wasn’t true when they introduced the current Continental and it isn’t true now that axed it.

100%.

It may have something to do with younger generations still wanting sedans instead of crossovers. Crossovers are only going to help Cadillac in cataract demographic they already do well in.
