Surprised Pantyface.

Wow. Most boring keynote to date. Some updates on what Apple already does, last year’s iPhone’s guts in the phone launched 4 years ago, slightly better iPad. I know that technology has moved on so much that updates get incremental, but Cook’s Apple just does the bare minimum required to keep their customers. TrueTone…

I didn’t know about this company or system and where it’s implemented and I enjoyed the article. No need to be arrogant and sense a conspiracy. Jalopnik has previously also written about the ZF 8-speed, which is in every car, which maybe even makes it more important/relevant for the reader to understand the technology…

I have a 2014 Volkswagen Up! with a 999cm engine and 60 hp which I like and enjoy. It’s never breathtakingly accelerating but it is light and manual, so it’s quick, fun and gets great fuel economy. I average about 50mpg in everyday use and on the Autobahn it gets me to 105 mph while still only demanding for 36mpg.

Yeah, I don’t even think it looks german. The design language looks rather french to me with the back reminding me of a current-gen Renault Clio while the front could be some kind of Citroen DS variety, profile is more Honda Aztec than german luxury suv.

Well it’s just like with Audi’s S and RS lines. You have one plenty powerful and capable luxury sports car and then you have the full maniac, almost too powerful version for the hardcore enthusiasts.

Whatever kind of gallons Google translates for me. My average is 4.5l/100km.

I average 52 mpg with the 60hp one. It never pulls hard or takes your breath away with acceleration, but it is fun when it makes you work for it. And you still get 37mpg going 105 miles per hour on the Autobahn (absolute top speed, but still).

Well, with good infrastructure streetcars actually are a great way to get around, as seen on all over Europe. They are quiet, powered by electricity and recuperate a lot while braking, have a smooth ride, offer space to a lot of people and also easy access for persons with wheelchairs, child buggies or bikes and if…

I think Apple always tries to make your life easier by offering practical tools that are great to use. This car kinda goes in that direction; I grew up with a VW Multivan T4, and we just loved the practicality of it. We put 250,000 miles on it (which is quite a lot in Europe) and had a great car for going places,…

Yes. Also liked the honesty and that he focused on everyday issues that might occur but that are not focused on in other reviews, like the trunk hatch/shopping issue.

I recently saw his Alfa Romeo 4C test and really enjoyed it, seems like a good act for the show.

““German environment help,” the Deutsche Umwelthilfe”

“So I logged on to Audi’s Swiss website, largely because everyone in Switzerland drives a high-performance car, even though the penalty for going just one mile per hour over the speed limit is that they will poke out your eyeballs, and cut off your legs, and kill you, and revoke your Amazon Prime subscription.”

Wow. Very clean and timeless design, looks great today.

Being from Germany, I always wonder how it is legal for (the typical cab-over) trucks to go full fucking christmas tree. Seriously, some have dozens of lights on the front.

Nasa being given 55 million for researching and building high tech sounds like giving some change to a street musician, especially when you compare car development budgets/costs.

Target locked.

Doesn’t sound too healthy.

A current subcompact which has roughly the same weight is the Volkswagen Up!, which has a base weight of 929kg (9 more than the all-wheel-drive Ignis - 2029 pounds).
