No, hydrogen is not a good start, it's a non-starter. Since BMW and Mazda canceled their joke inefficient H2 combustion engines, all hydrogen cars are just battery electric cars whose range extender is an expensive hydrogen fuel cell that requires a non-existent H2 refueling infrastructure. There will be a handful of

Show me these people who "don't understand that part". Avoiding the production, refining, delivery and burning of literally tons of gasoline compared with a 35 mpg car is a genuine win for the environment, as is driving less, car sharing, a bicycle, etc.

Them's brave talk around here. The Prius front is pretty indistinguishable from the Honda Fit that's certified OK for Jalopnik's to like, as you say the rear has to look that way for aero, and that leaves the awful under-tyred dumpy rear 3/4 view. The Prius is 75% OK looking.

It's not a lie, it's just a meaningless statement. Jay Leno Drives Chevy Volt 11000 Miles Without Gas, Nets 2365 MPG and other owner stories are equally true. The excellent EPA window sticker for a plug-in gives you what you need to estimate your actual gas and electricity usage; until it shows up for the new Ford

I'll save that pic for all the people who say "My brillaint idea is to power an electric car from solar cells on it's roof". Damn you, unyielding physics!

Excellent, thank you! Acura's press release talks about the two motors for SH-AWD and a third electric motor somehow lashed to the engine and dual-clutch transmission, but was silent on what provides the juice.

It adds Super-ooper-duper Handling-All Wheel Drive!

I wonder why is it acceptable for politicians to "choose" (your choice of word) to believe made-up stories that on the face of it are stupid? [mormon.org] talks of some tribe led by God from Jerusalem to the Americas, the angel Moroni, some "ancient language" on golden plates now conveniently lost? What.Ev.Er. It's

Don't know, and yes.

I'm pretty sure you're mistaken. According to this graph

Please cite any "really good arguments" made by actual economists. Chrysler and GM were months away from running out of money when there was zero credit available. They would have simply halted operations in the middle of armageddon, turning the economic outlook even more dismal, and the bankruptcy plan would have put

The turn signal ITSELF is irrelevant because the vast majority of drivers never use it. You can't hold a big gulp/frappucino, yak on a cellphone, swing the wheel AND operate a turn stalk, so why do manufacturers needlessly jack up the cost of cars with this wasteful obsolete feature?! Likewise the hazard button; it's

That would make it too easy. Instead, the switches should be strategically placed in the environment outside the car, requiring skill to spot, drive over, and activate. I dub these race module switches "power ups".

Well, all the European "blu*" diesels are micro-hybrids with stop-start and some brake regen, but the motor alone can't propel the car.

Ray Wert, your butt-hurt animosity towards Musk is lowering your IQ. Seek medical attention.

The difference between a forest and a city is obvious to anyone, claiming it's all "nature" because we naturally evolved our awesome capabilities is foolish.

Market value is how much a company is worth. Buy all the shares at the share price and you own the company. What other measurement is there?

I salute your persistence with the Porsche=Beetle meme!

Not quite all, I think it started with the DB3 around 1951. But agreed, super-iconic
