Sooo, what exactly is the point of a truck doing 0-60 in 2.9 seconds? I mean you're not doing that when hauling something (if you do, you deserve do die in a crash) and you sure as hell aren't doing it with stuff rolling around in the bed. So what's the point? Bragging rights?

Yeah but that's its only trick though. Sure it's fast in a straight line, but the ergonomics, quality and driving mechanics aren't that amazing. Who thought locking your glovebox with the infotainment screen was a good idea?

 I wonder if toyota will dare to bring this to europe and compete with the xc40 and q3 hybrids. It seems more likely they will find a way to make it significantly more lame like they do with their entire European lineup

Allowing the designated driver to drink something different than soft drinks? Not everyone is a milkdrinker that thinks beer is yucky but wants to get drunk nonetheless

Next up, nissan will bring out their new 'skyline inspired' xtrail, it will have two sets of round tail lights, one small and one large

And? A mile is nothing. Heck 2 miles would still be nothing even for an older person as long as they are in good health. You’re making these lame excuses and you’re wonderingwhy there's an obesity and cardiac problem in the US?

Considering toyota somehow isn't capable to make their own sportscars despite being the biggest carmaker? Yes, i would say it's likely

Celica gt four confirmed

Oh boohoo, but you’re happily buying everything else that’s made there, including the phone or computer you wrote this comment with

Scaling back alfa? How do you scale back a 4 car lineup of which one is ancient (giulietta)? I guess they'll just dump the overpriced 4c then?

Ok ok fine, so the tesla is faster in a straight line. The taycan is still better in braking, cornering, seating position and quality. So big victory for Elon i guess, he saved the party trick of his one trick pony

Who cares? Did you miss the part where the taycan outperformed the model s in every other performance metric and build quality as well?

Is it though? Porsche is offering an all round performance package compared to Tesla's one trick pony of 'look how fast i go in a straight line'

Hot news: carmaker with 40+ years experience in making sports cars does sports car better than silicon valley bubble-dweller that took up carmaking as a hobby

Why exactly do you think they won't be around? Why do you think ricciardo signed with them, why do you think they backed out of FE? They are focussing on the new era more than they are developing their car for '19 and '20. They aren't going anywhere

No matter what rule changes there are, they would always be f'ed. Unless they start handing out points for last place

'we are competing in motorsports even though we only sell underpowered shitboxes'

Renault isn't PSA...

They are sold out for this year and most of next over here so yeah, people are buying them

Same, good thing we get the i30n over here
