I don’t think they were intending to be a massive volume player in India, just open that market up to upper-end bikes. And get a secondary manufacturing base (think Honda in Thailand) that avoids Chinese government problems/human rights issues.

lol your comment reminds me of every “futurist” on this site.

Yeah he picked a terrible time to announce it after a lot of Californians were literally sitting in the dark with no AC waiting for the power to kick back on haha.

Yeah you’d literally have to find a manual car to pick up this car with to meet his wacky criteria.

Maybe in “automotive journalist terms” they aren’t in the same category but you can get a the highest trim (non-Shelby) Bullet Mustang for the same price ($55k) or cheaper than the 6 cylinder Supra. Double the horsepower with every single interior (6/8/12 way/whatever heated/cooled seats OR Recaros-you pick) and…

On any of these scam EV companies all the brainless Jalopnik commentators always chime in, BUT THEY WERE SELLING THEIR TECHNOLOGY!!!! Like they somehow stumbled on some miraculous unspecified engineering solution that OEMs with billions of dollars in research couldn’t figure out.

All these guys are like DAE LICENSING DEALZ but nobody can tell you what they are actually licensing.

Bentley / Rolls owners just care about looking rich, let’s be honest.

Because Jalopnik only can explain anything with their global warming narrative. We get fires every year and for most people it’s 1-2 weeks of bad air quality. Nobody is moving out of the state because of it. A few isolated mountain towns burn but that’s been going on for 50 years.

The fires are seasonal and the air quality has been bad for 2 weeks. Maybe a few mountain communities are leaving but you think there’s a mass exodus because of smog? lol

Jalopnik’s narrative is “global warming is causing this”

I’m actually sad these failed.

There’s 2WD classes in most Rally events.

Any actual adult that says F*** the HATERZ like a 15 year old aspiring rapper who has no actual haters is not someone I would want to invest any money with.

I wish anyone would build a small pickup. Used to be a staple of high school parking lots everywhere.

Commercial real estate....so hot right now

Kind of lackluster styling for a $100,000 - $180,000 car. I’d expect it to be $65,000 to $90,000 in the size/style/product mix. The top end one is priced like a Bentley Bentayga. Granted it’s way faster but you gotta be really into electrics to buy one.

I guess I was saying that Donut Media is like the equivalent to Lucky Charms but Top Gear even in its classic days was Captain Crunch. Both aren’t helping your brain cell count.

Interesting - never heard anything about stolen content. I know they cram a ton of sound byes which are probably not licensed but whatever.
