The “high road”/”low road”-approach has been discussed for decades. GM knows how to break a brand with its crap (witness Lopez at Opel and a steady decline until selloff due to craptacular quality). It is all a conscious choice, just as ditching cars in favour of monstrous vehicles is - it’s the ‘70s on repeat. The…

I know several people who own this car with diesel engines, here in Norway, and they’re all very happy. The only “but” I keep hearing is that the brakes rust so fast on our winter salt roads, that people send in warranty claims every two (!) years.

When using more fuel instead of less is a good thing, and you can't just ask the Soviets for their off-the-shelves crazy machinery.

This is the best-researched, best-explained and most-surprising automotive content I have seen here. Glorious, and thank you!

There are still a few autojournalists that don’t get that Volvo is finally moving away from emulating BMW. But most people understand that they have found their own path - the liberation that happened with Chinese money. The V's sell very well in Europe, too. The V90 is a common taxi.

Moose assasins are easy to spot due to their black antlers.

Under what rock do you live? Every. Single. Review. has been stellar. Jalopnik has compared Volvo interiors to Range Rover. Volvo is looking at sales records. Its smaller SUV range has become a major player in Europe. Geely is universally acclaimed for its role in pumping money into the Swedish company - and letting…

All that power is so wasteful. There’s that socialist third option to consider:

Randy Nonnenberg, the founder of BaT, has been asked about affordable cars on the site:

Oh, it’s a pretty apocalyptic outlook. I wonder what that does to people and their perspective on life? There is no good way to really safeguard against these fires either...no bunker or body of water around the house can help. I hope that societies affected like that rather shift to working together than slinging…

Yeah, oof, that’s a whole ‘nother topic. There’s been a discussion here whether people who make poor democratic choices (Trump in the US, Orban in Hungary, Johnson in the UK, Morrison and Abbott in Australia) also “deserve” the outcome...bad that goes into another bucket on the internet, I suppose. 

Those prices...not USD, I presume? There are 16 Challengers for sale in Norway, but the prices are just as obscene:

You’re an outstanding writer, a knowledgeable car guy, and a stellar Craiglist rummager. But PLEASE make graphs that are actually readable. Basic Excel graphs do just fine. This does not:

If I open Jalopnik without adblock, the browser crashes. This is valid on phone and PC. The autorun videos and ineptitude of Kinja are already enough to swallow.

Very neat list, but:

To Infiniti and beyond!

This is such a brilliant comment. Wanna get hired to a sinking ship?

The continuation series is absolutely fantastic. It's my ultimate automobile wet dream: A fabulous design of times long gone by, build by hand in a traditional workshop, with somewhat modern tech...and a warranty. Also, a great name that few would recognize, but then with great force and respect.

Hyundai is trying to push a few leftover 2016 i30s here - no idea where they come from. They're basically 40% off. But it's an entirely different marked.

Somebody said the current Camry hybrid doesn't have that awful, engine-screaming, power-sucking, lifeless feel to it that all its Toyota brethren suffer from. If that is true, it's a huge step forward and surely a reason to not buy a Prius.
