Fuck the SUV overlords!

As a Saab Sportcombi owner... all I can say is “Save the V90's” 

How much you wanna bet that if a black driver unintentionally hurt someone while being forced to flee a group of Trump-supporting white supremacists during a “stop the steal” rally that these new laws suddenly wouldn’t apply

The length this country is willing to fall in order to protect the status quo, instead of rising to the ideal that it itself set out to be, is simply astounding.

Not really sure why one would think that small car size would be attributed to poor engine sound. If anything, small cars generally sound better than larger ones.

186.3 miles per milisecond. It’s not just a suggestion, its the Law.

Why are so many people so insecure they have to cosplay at looking tough and aggressive?

55kW charging is an issue for road trips, but for most people with charging at home it’s not really an issue 350 days of the year. It will still make an excellent commuter car with very low running costs, that is pretty comfortable.

What is the deal with grille blanking panels on dedicated EVs? I get it if the car was originally designed as an ICE vehicle, but on a dedicated EV platform? Did the designers just forget that the car they were drawing doesn’t need a grille until it was too late to go back and change itIt just makes no sense at all

Agree completely.  I was expecting something like the BMW i3 (which I’m currently shopping for), then got to the 2nd-gen Neon and was like “WHAT?!  That thing is like an aggressive version of a very inoffensive and pleasant design”

DO NOT LISTEN to that comment, David. Your cheap Jeep journals have helped keep me mentally in check. Your beater Jeep articles and Nice Price are the only reasons I still check Jalopnik once a while.

This is Jalopnik.

The term “schtick” implies some kind of performance. This is not that, it’s a passion that has existed since I was a child (a passion so strong it drove me to study engineering, move to Detroit, and work for Jeep).

I’m just buying whatever vehicle I want to buy (remember, I have to pay for these machines with my own

His friend is a dildo salesman and stores all his inventory in the vehicle - loose.

Right there with you. I love the Multipla, and I love how ugly it is. I was going to post it myself but I guess now I’ll have to choose the Aztek.

Well, see, these can’t possibly qualify for this thread, because they are absolutely gorgeous.

Maybe they’ll do like VW and do random small changes during the production run so you can ID when a mail truck was built, “That’s a 2025 as in 2024 they had the 5 diode bulb and 2026 the 4 diode, the 7 diode was only used that one year of production.”

I think its a cool function over form design. I cant wait till 2033 when people start dropping Tesla S engines or Chevy LS engines in them.

What is not intuitive for an automotive journalist doing a review over a few days becomes intuitive for actual owners over a few weeks of acclamation.

Why is it critical that this won’t be available with AWD?
