Well except usnews.com ranks Denmark as #2 in the world for quality of life.

Did we fail reading comprehension?

Or... they have a relatively wealthy government that actually has an interest in helping the population and improving their quality of life. I suppose that does feel like a foreign concept these days...

Right because no one knows what emergency lights and sirens are...

YAY! My favorite car! The BIS didn’t just lay the engine on it’s side, it was also water-cooled! The car in the video is either an early 126p FL or a later FL with 126p ST parts (like the chrome bumpers) added onto it.

During the transition from the 126p ST (the first-gen built in Poland) to the FL, a lot of earlier FL…

Don’t forget their marine division, Penta.

And Mack, and UD Trucks (Nissan Diesel), and Prevost, and Nova Bus. Volvo Group is surprisingly large.

Not a six foot cone, that would just look wierd and silly.

And to make it even more confusing, Volvo owns Renault Trucks

They probably need the grilles for cooling. The gap in actual cooling power requirement is not as large as electric car designers try to make people believe, as electric powertrains need to be kept at lower temperatures than ICE engines, eating up a lot of the efficiency advantage. As trucks are build to work all day,…

This is your periodic reminder that Volvo Group, which primarily makes trucks, does not own Volvo Car, which primarily makes cars, even though both are based in Gothenburg, Sweden. It gets confusing!

What does styling being too predictable mean here? They are probably using grilles from the parts bin. And how much aerodynamics do you expect from a truck like this? You want a six foot cone on the front or something? These things are hardly ever gonna exceed 35mph

Woah woah woah. What are you getting at? I’ve been kicked out of a Lululemon before for too aggressively handling the yoga pants on display. I’m qualified to judge here.

Don’t be thinking small. Think BIG. Think Continental. Think New Yorker. Think Delta 88. Tbink about all those smooth-riding malaise-yachts with 150 horsepower lumps. Imagine doubling or tripling the power of one of those things and gliding along in silent splendor...

Approximately one (1) metric fuck ton

Usul, we have Goatse the likes of which even God has never seen.

This looks like a Tesla van launch. Elon sees some designer’s random drawing, says its awesome looking and they should ship it out without making any changes. Designer begs “but I haven’t even added doors.”, Elon replies “No changes!”

The renders for this are horrible (No suspension height, no tie downs, no door openings, no passenger bulkheads, or anything else that actually matters on a van).

All the best designs are from the 1980s. We should reïntroduce these graphs. Here’s a mockup of a depreciation graph for a Chevrolet:

LOL, imagine believing that.
