So ONLY corvettes are seeing mark ups? If the actual purchase price is 50k over sticker but it performs like a car with an MSRP of $180k and actual purchase price of $230k, how is it not still a bargain for the level of performance? Of course, you have the option of searching and buying either at a dealer for MSRP and

It is very likely that when the SOC meter in the car is showing 100%, it is likely closer to 80% in reality, keeping buffers on each end of the usable battery range.

The Tahoe was also not a mild hybrid, it was a 2-mode parallel hybrid, the same as a Prius. The tahoe got 50% better city fuel economy and 10% better on the highway when comparing the 6.0 hybrid to the standard 5.3.

Interesting, I didn’t go much deeper than a quick google and seeing the weight ranges overlapping.

It really is very heavy. So heavy it might be the first time the Corvette out weighs the Camaro [of the same vintage]?

I’m surprised it is priced so close to the Z06. Still much cheaper than the nearly $170k NSX (RIP), but I feel like they could (should?) have left the carbon ceramic brakes off and gotten it to start in under the $100k mark.

Buick probably thought they had a really nifty suspension system here, but if I had to guess the impact those buttons had on the actual suspension feel was minimal.

...because it was made in China is definitely not a good reason, though?

I guess you didn’t scroll down, huh? Also, the response was not literal. It was based on the responses that the F1 story is getting on most social media, not my opinion of GM or Cadillac.

Well, your picture shows Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, not curb weight, that is the issue, not the source.

Your answer was only .69 seconds away, nice.

Cadillac is doing pretty well in its own right. Looking at the championship standings, Cadillac teams won 1st, 2nd, 3rd in the IMSA DPi Championship in 2017, 1st and 3rd in 2018, 2nd in 2019 and 2020, 1st in 2021, and 3rd in 2022.

driven along in isolation to the world.

What on earth is Cadillac thinking trying to get into racing? It will never work, GM can only compete in NASCAR.

I am never quite sure what to call a non-plug-in hybrid, other than a non plug in hybrid so i tried to simplify to traditional.  Probably should have just stuck with the tried and true, so thats my bad.

It is clear you are having a bad day.  I hope your day gets better so you don’t call some other random stranger autistic.  Cheers.

That is a plug in hybrid, right? From what I can find, with a 14.1 kWh battery, so yeah, that makes sense.

Do they not have oxygen masks on these planes? Aren’t those automatic in a depressurization event or was this low enough that it did not trigger that?
