Because an SUV doesn’t get headline-grabbing stats like “500 miles of range” or “0-60 in 2.4" or “runs the quarter mile in 9.3 seconds”

It’s marketing.

Through all this it seems like Lucid is the anti-Nikola. They make promises after they’ve proven with prototypes, and they execute before asking for retail investor dollars.

This whole story could be titled...”Why people that live in the sticks like JadeRose will never own an EV.”

Well, she did ask “what car should I buy”, not “what should I do with my money”. You may not like their car choices, but to assume they should ignore the question and provide unprompted financial advice is not what this is about. 

The penalties in the UK seem really light. An example I saw this week on one of a Cops-style show: they were looking for some thieves in the area, and spotted them driving the other way. They start chasing the car and it crashes into a housing estate, then the guys inside scatter like cockroaches and hide in the…

My exact thought process on this one:

All of these bans on gas-burning cars end up a little dumb in that, well, they are not taking place immediately

Nazca was another NFS legend, so underrated. Love the back, too.

Toyota RSC. Granted... I probably wouldn’t have bought one (although I like the idea of having one), and it probably would have sold like spoiled milk. But fuck off, I always liked the way this looked! And I would’ve appreciated the option of an offroading coupe.

Oooohhh, that looks like it’ll feel very comfortable on your lower spine! Sign me up...

I never understand lifted trucks where the drivetrain has the same clearance as a sedan.

You need one of these to follow you everywhere.
