So much this. Jeep is lowering the belt line and thinning the pillars. Hope others follow suit.

Uh, private charging station companies have gotten a good bit ($millions) over the past ten years for the current charging infrastructure. Depending on the business model, they may or may not take good care of them.

The BMW Zartan. Awesome cross marketing... cars and G.I. Joe:

You’re right. They pay more: https://www.kbb.com/car-news/average-new-car-sales-price-now-over-46000/#:~:text=Americans%20paid%20an%20average%20of,higher%20sales%20of%20luxury%20cars.

That’s the problem with the KIA. It’s a magnificent vehicle, but the back seat is a cave.

That’s a lot of money, but the average selling price just passed $46K:

So if David T. can buy each car for $350, he will get enough $ to buy another car... perpetual motion does exist!

This. Cold starts on old cars are a bear.

Thank you.

Looks good, but how is this an SUV?

What about outward visibility? Have we reached peak Camaro yet?

Is that the Rover V8? Which is actually a Buick V8...

1932 Ford V8:

This. And while the Prius should be lauded for its efficiency, the EPA ratings on its trucks and SUVs are abysmal. Anyone for a green Toyota Tundra?

Here’s part of the problem:

Nearly every article on the Tesla workers in “Berlin” conflates workers councils and unions.

It was interesting to see both Ford (with the new Escape) and Jeep (with the new Wagoneer and Grand Cherokee) talk about bigger windows, lower beltline, and better overall outward visibility. Someone is listening.

You’re exactly right. Perhaps to no surprise, the electric transit bus demos have already reached the same conclusion with winter heating: heat the stuff that passengers touch (seats, floor, handles, etc.) and heat some of the air, instead of heating just the air. That saves a lot of energy. 

And kept a high belt line to mirror the experience of riding in a 1970s LTD.
