Spoiler: It won’t.

This is infuriating. Why are they so focused on redoing their badging all the time when they should be focused on making products that are compelling on a global level? They are so lost. 

Does the car come in purple?

To be fair, the person buying these probably doesn’t care what the number means just as long as they can be assured that the bigger number is better.

They should have just used the universal unit of torques, the Nurple. Then it’d be easy to explain.

Are you honestly looking forward to a future where entire parking lots full of electric cars go up in smoke because one battery pack suffered thermal runaway?  I’m never happy to see vehicles destroyed (especially racers), but I’m glad this happened in a race paddock and not in a public parking lot full of daily

Toyota’s Julie Hamp did not have a prescription. Or rather, she did not have a prescription from a Japanese doctor, which is the same as not having a prescription.
