I’m sad that you had to explain this.

Josh Hutcherson: Unlikely voice of reason.

Masturbation doesn’t count. GAWD TORI!

Take a look again and see how low that floor is. It’s a lower height than most minivans. Folding flat would have been a breeze.

Valid. I doubt they would change it either. But batteries can be configured in any way you can imagine, so one of the promises of electric cars was superior interior packaging. The only packaging bonus for Teslas, so far, has been a frunk. The seats should fold down. The flat load floor thing is a pretty big deal to…

In the 30 years of SUV and minivan folding seats, when was the last time you heard of an injury, death or recall for a failure of them? If Kia in the 90’s can do it, by God Tesla should be able to pull something out of their ass.

I don’t believe that for a second. The third row is traditional flip and fold. He wanted to make cool looking seats “framed by the outside of the aperture” or some such nonsense he said from his presentation. If safety were the reason, I guarantee he would have mentioned it in the presentation. If he went so far as to…

Since batteries are configurable in any shape, I figured there was MORE chance of some interesting interior packaging ideas. Not just bolting an airplane seat in it and bragging how you can fit stuff underneath.

I’ve seen no indication that they hinge outward. I had this same thought. It only takes a 30% reduction in the opening height to make the doors stop at a 45 degree angle.

Nope, no fold flat. They slide forward all the way and that’s it.

The seats do not fold down. Repeat: DO NOT FOLD DOWN. It’s silly really. It gave me eye twitches when I realized that. The slide forward all the way for access to the back and tilt slightly, but no folding flat. If Chrysler can come up with stow and go captain seats over a decade ago that fold all the way into the…

Here’s a quote from the article I linked:

Not necessarily agreeing with the OP, but if you can’t come up with $2000, how will you afford the estimated $245,000 it takes to raise a child these days?

The arc of the roof section is still the same and the side section can’t swing OUT farther. If the roof stops at a lower angle, the door part will be much lower, impacting the head room and removal of car seats/children/groceries. And if you’re in a low garage next to a tall vehicle (as is MY garage) then you’re…

“The rear seats don’t fold flat, but they slide back-and-fourth really far within the cabin to give the interior a lot of versatility”

First gen Oldsmobile Aurora. It looks like they melted a piece of plexiglass over a Pontiac. It just wants to be alone and fade away man, fade away.

Last gen Buick Riviera. All soft curves and pillowy seats. It looks like it was formed out of a bag of marshmallows.

Yeah, probably shouldn’t have hashtagged it the same. It’s a valid statement on its own, overshadowed by her being jelly.

By commonly accepted ethnicity rules, Zendaya and Demi are equally WOC. Demi’s father is of Mexican and Spanish ancestry while Zendaya’s is of African descent. Both moms are white. Demi just passes for white and I imagine that’s what you’re getting at. Your comment seemed like you were trying to knock Demi for being…

Does anyone else suddenly have the urge to go buy a TDI VW now? Probably get a screaming deal...
