It’s nearer 150kW. You need a powerful motor to get good regeneration.

About 1750kg, which might sound a lot but it's light by EV standards.

Not that Volvo though.

In case anyone is wondering what a multi clutch transmission is, it's actually a conventional automatic box with the torque converter replaced by a multi plate clutch.

As I understand it, this isn't the last V12, but the last that isn't hybridised.

er...Ford make plenty of cars. Just not for all markets.

Only in some markets.....plenty of Ford cars for sale at my local dealer. Yours, maybe less so.

Not just them... the bog standard Focus 1.0 I drive occasionally is just the same.

Back in the day, yes unless you were really gentle with the clutch. Modern cars with engine management systems will move off, even on a hill, unless you actually drop the clutch.

The engine in the first model may have looked like a Harley one, but it wasn't. It was by S & S.

Probably because it was French.

On the other hand, they gave this their blessing....

That’s interesting because suicide by train happens here but fatal accidents at level crossings are thankfully rare.

Well, I suppose Toyota could make the Hilux in America for export. However they already make it in Thailand. Do you think they are going to make in in America instead and if so why? Consider costs in your answer.

Suicide by train is a really big thing.

Yes, and suicide by train is a big thing too.

Where are Ford F vehicles exported to in big numbers? Most of the world gets the Ranger instead.

Tesla apart (and they’re building a plant in Germany) there are not that many vehicles made in America that would be big sellers in Europe. Ford for example either have inappropriate vehicles or vehicles that can be made cheaper in Turkey, Romania or wherever.

That’s the coupé. They also did a more conventional two door.

Toss up between the original Land Rover and various Jeeps.
