It’d be more newsworthy if the report was about Fisker somehow not being trouble. We’ve been reading about them for a decade now and every single time it’s about running out of money, a catastrophic disaster, or something of the sort.
Nevermind that the plug in needs 1/10th of the battery, which not only means production inputs are lower, but also means that those limited resources can be used in additional new plug ins.
First, since when has yellow been a color for the Prius?
Isn’t there a bit of chicken/ovum here? I wont buy into a new car company if I dont believe they’ll be around in 4-5 years to get me the parts/service (recalls) I might need, but they wont be around in 4-5 years if no one buys from them....
1st Gear – I’m not the only one saying this here, but when you’re pricing EVs at $70-125K, you run out of First Mover sales in a hurry. There are valid financial reasons why the Chevy Bolt and Tesla Model 3 sold a lot better than Hummers and Tesla Model S. Hit price points regular car buyers can afford and you’ll sell…
Maybe I don’t understand engine dynos... but I don’t think this is “fully functional” when there’s no linkage to the crankshaft. The radiator doesn’t appear to be plumbed either.
Toyota was selling a hybrid in the US a full decade before the Volt.
She is getting way more attention out of this now that it’s posted on national websites than they ever would in a carpool lane. Maybe she agreed to split the proceeds with the school if they made a big fuss over it?
The real killer for any battery. Quick charging 20% to 80% in 30 minutes on a consistent basis is a killer.
Simple for my wife and I....as two people who are in leadership positions we enjoy going on a vacation where our goal is to not have a plan and just chill. We were weary on the first couple of cruises we went on but ultimately we enjoy being able to chill, go to a show, hit the piano bar, eat, drink, etc. without…
thats not hulk hogan, its hollywood hogan. The NWO shirt gives it away.
I pointed this out in another thread yesterday, but there’s no way these Cybertruck deliveries are anything more than ceremonial, to satisfy Elon’s self-imposed deadline.
Someone explain to me how Zaslav, the CEO of Warner Bros Disc, is not the dumbest “Hey, short-term gains while the long-term advantages of the brand are shot to hell are ‘ha-ha’ worth it” executive of all time. Deliberately shelving an entirely completed flick for the tax write-off...are you effing kidding me? (Batgirl…
I think those gauge faces are from Crusin’ USA.
What planet are you from?
They couldn’t even be bothered to make Gladiator specific rear doors for the Gladiator; are they really going to give it the attention it needs to be a Ram/Dodge and not just a slightly different looking Gladiator? If Gladiators aren’t selling very well, what are they going to do to make the Ram version sell any…
PHEV variant please, and also not Gladiator shaped/dimensioned.
Yep, Chicago area resident here, and this is 100% accurate. Right now, I don’t see a path to living with an EV without a garage and dedicated charger.
I think you misunderstood my point. I’m saying these “charging stations” are NOT a solution. You need to be able to charge where you’re parked for much of the day. Ideally overnight. Yes workplace chargers will also suffice, but not everyone works somewhere that has dedicated parking spots. My whole point was the…
