The PZEV thing is so fucking stupid. “Partial Zero Emission Vehicle”? It’s just a regular-ass gas powered car! Every gas car is “partial zero emission” when it’s parked! They’ve literally made absolutely no changes to a car, but given it a cutesy name to pretend they did. It’s lazy, it’s dishonest and it makes me

So... is Subaru gonna make an electric car to actually help stop this climate apocalypse, or are they just gonna say “fuck it, we’re ruining the world but we’ll also sell you a gas-powered car you can use to Mad Max around in it”?

Nooooo not another one! First Grumpy and now this? We’re running out of famous cats!

Here’s a version you can actually see:

So instead of, like, making electric cars or anything sensible like that, they’re just going to blame them for all their problems?

2) that’s a Ranger

The whole thing can be boiled down to something that’s fairly obvious in the video: it’s a 2WD F-150. Even if they weighed the same, the Tesla would still win because it has twice the traction from twice the number of driven wheels.

Yeah, FCA is being petty and stupid about this. The Roxor doesn’t compete with anything Jeep currently makes. They’re two completely different vehicles that look similar.

Who cares what lay people think? They’re not the ones buying it.

It’s a Nissan Leaf, not a Prius. Learn cars, man.

The idea of a four-door Mustang has been around since the ‘60s. So has the idea of a mid-engined Corvette. Both of those things are happening now. People like to have fits about “new” things, but both of these things have been a long time coming.

Thank you! So many people are freaking out about the Mach-E as if it’s a Charger situation, but it’s not. The Mach-E isn’t a replacement for the Mustang. It’s a spinoff. The coupe isn’t going anywhere, nor is it any less of a Mustang just because something else exists with the name and badge on it.

I genuinely love the idea of an IROC-E.

That’s a nice one! Battery’s shot, though - range should be around 90 miles, not 15. It would be a good candidate for a lithium battery swap.

I have a few:

Can we start a petition to just fucking yeet Jeremy Clarkson into the sun? Please?

Found the person who’s never experienced instant torque.

Medium has gotten a bit clickbait-y lately. I’m tempted to try this trick, but I’m also tempted to not bother.

Dear automakers: Make more goddamn electric cars!
