This is an insane hair brained take. The amount racism, total amount of representation at the Oscars or how the South Asian (and south indian to be more specific) community feels about this. It makes absolute sense to hire up South Asian dancers for this performance. Why on god’s earth would you not? It just makes…

PER CAPITA. Sure, per miles driven would close the gap a bit but it would still be significant.

Im sorry but you’re wrong. Yes driver training is the main factor but that reduces the issues we have here in the states. German drivers are more likely to buckle up, not drive drunk, and know where and where not to speed. Also there are more EU regulations around safety systems and vehicle designs. 

Whats funny and also dissapointing is that they ARE fully behind the N division now. The issue with the stinger is it really didn’t excel at anything. It was supposed to be a sports sedan but was never that sporty. It was supposed to be affordable but was undercut by most of the Kia/hyundai lineup in price. It was…

Im sorry but they don’t. A small car with good traction (awd not necessary) can handle cross county travel just fine. America isn’t the only country that has vast open stretches of open country, but we are one of the few that makes excuses to buy big ass trucks. 

My issue is that I don’t give a jack about the integra because its slow, so I’m now looking at it as a normie car, and in that case it fairs pretty poorly outside of its base trim, compared not only to the entry level luxury segment, which crucially now includes the Mazda 3 IMHO, but also “non-luxury” cars like the…

Yeah I don’t know about the methodology here. I feel like infotainment issues should be downgraded in comparison with mechanical ones (unless the infotainment stupidly includes critical vehicle functions), and many mfr’s get hit hard in these rankings due to them. However I have no idea for the life of me what issues…

It may have close to the same power but it’s slower than every car in the segment. The A3, 228, A250, Mazda 3 turbo all do 0-60 in the low 6's or less. Any performance sedan at this price is way faster.

Auto mfr’s overestimate 0-60 times. This thing will do it in 7.0. It will still get burned by an Odyssey and moreseo the Pilot. This powertrain is still pretty ass for the price, especially in CVT form.

I’ve tried it and its dog shit. I change my vent positions multiple times on a car trip. If I can easily change a setting, I want it to remain easy even if automating it is possible. 

I bought an Elantra N instead because of it. I gave up the hatch and the better fuel economy. The GTI is a better car overall but there is no way in hell I'm paying for that war crime of an interior. 

Mk8 GTI. They took a decent car, the mk7, and fixed its only problem, which was its at-limit performance. And then? They flood the interior with a horrible UI and capacitive touch buttons. VW spent hundreds of millions making one of the worst car interiors in the industry, all while other vehicles in their lineup,…

I need to make sure. Why isn’t the 918 the first car to pair a naturally aspirated engine with electric AWD?

TYPO, its 4,567

Its a typo. Its actually 4,567 lbs.

You would pay an additional 10 to 15 THOUSAND for wireless phone mirroring? This thing starts at below 50k. 

Hopefully not too many given that fusion’s a thing now

There is still a use for the front hood. It’s the same reason mid & rear engined cars have an “engine bay” as well. You need space for the front wheels, front axle, suspension and steering, as well as a crumple zone. You look at ANY vehicle that doesn’t have a front hood, it either still does but with a super raked…

The Civic hatch is by far the best car in this segment, if not for anything else the space. 

The portrait-mounted infotainment screen is nice
