This implies a distopian future where we’re all blinded and forced to rely on autonomous cars.

I’m curious about that as well, lidar currently has issues with multiple units working closely to each other.

Stupid question from the peanut gallery, has anyone bothered to stack 40-50 of these things, all radiating, in a typical moving and weather-filled traffic environment? One lone LIDAR will work just fine, but what if you get a bunch of them in the same local area? Interference patterns, false echoes, and so on - just

Well accelarometers used to be really expensive until they started going into cars for airbag systems. Then there was a much larger market that could apply pressure to lower prices. And it worked, they got cheaper and better. Now every car has a bunch of them

So assuming that you had a crammed highway full of Lidar and whatever other new technologies you have pinging around, would there not be interference? Just one in a million vehicles equipped with it now is just dandy, but what happens when you have ubiquity? Just curious.

I dunno guys, I think the port rear 3/4 view is familiar, don’t you?

Hyundai/Kia use all in house transmissions nowadays and this is likely their own homegrown transmission. If it’s anything like the ones Hyundai uses it probably won’t be as fast as the ZF unit which is likely why the 0-60 isn’t as quick as some other cars with this kind of power.

I’m still waiting for this beauty

It doesn’t look like it. I bet they go with an off-the-shelf ZF 8-speed, the same one most other brands are using for their RWD wares. Really, it’s rare for a RWD car to have a DCT unless it is a super-performance variant. For example, the BMW 430i and 440i have the 8-speed torque-converter, while the balls-out M4 has

So this is a refreshed Genisis coupe in KIA clothing?

False. One can never have too much Maserati.

Probably when we’re done shaming you for allowing yourself to be influenced by the media elite. Remember ‘99% likelihood of Clinton victory’?

Replying to bump

Great response to an absolute shit pile of an article from Hannah. I’m embarrassed for her.

Hannah, I’m disappointed in the clickbait title. Claiming these agencies “did not present evidence” is not merely misleading but untrue. You are spreading same sort of misinformation that drives clicks for conspiracy bloggers and Fox News.

There ya go! The leftist version of “thoughts & prayers.” Or, as you call it “I hope it’s a white guy. Please let them be white.”

Fort Lauderale is not all brown people, and you’re not a good troll.

You are partially correct, commenters would shit their pants if anyone joked about how shitty New York was after a tragedy

People deal with tragedy through humor and snark.
