I completely agree with you. I’ve noticed that a lot of the content on this site seems to be generated by AI. It’s impressive to see how advanced the technology has become and how it’s being used in various industries. However, I also think it’s important to keep in mind that AI-generated content is not always on the…
My Volt cost 10.8¢ to run on 100% gas (not including preconditioning) or 6.9¢ to run on electricity (including charging losses and preconditioning). YMMV.
I have over 4 years left on a 100% renewable contract...at 14 cents for power and delivery charges. Looking at the market place now, there is a 3 month contract for 10.8 cents (again power and delivery). YMMV.
MPGe is about the energy, not the cost, the same way MPG is independent of the the price of gas. Seems daft to think it is in anyway talking about cost.
I think modern light rail trains sounds pretty good but they also are not very loud.
I legitimately had to scroll up to make sure it was not actually spelled “Toenail.”
Which cars are you referring to? I can think of the Cayman GTS and the GR Supra. Not sure what else is sub 400 and sub 4.0
It shouldn’t come as any surprise to readers of this beloved blogsite.com.
Yeah, it went from 14 city to 21. Highway only went from 20 to 22 (epa figures). You also lost a decent bit of practicality with requiring a 2nd row bench and less useful space when folded due to the batteries.
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?
