If we’re using more electricity, and we would use a lot more if mass BEV adoption happens, then the grid would have to be massively upgraded. I have absolutely zero faith that will happen in any meaningful way.

Wait until the power grid is unreliable instead of the chargers.

Hyundai is a company on fire. They’re just killing it.

The 4WD systems on these had issues, I’d take the 2WD all day.

The ‘08 and later 3Vs are great. Fixed the cam phaser issues, and changed the spark plug design to a one piece.

They fixed the 3V in ‘08 when it went to a different plug.

This list is invalid without a TVR Sagaris

As a Democrat, I’m free to make fun of how negative my own party has become.

I’m pretty sure being positive or complimentary of absolutely anything makes you a Republican, and thus the devil, in 2024.

Nailed it.

Speaking of the Aztek, seems like automakers are trying REALLY hard to make sure the Aztek seems good looking. BMW XM, new 7-series, Cybertruck, VW iD4, etc are all hideous. The automotive landscape is filled with ugly right now.

Agreed, I think Andy has been spoiled and doesn’t understand what a truly cheap/bad interior is. Go drive a 90s Cavalier, go drive a K-car. This thing might as well be an S-class.

I’ve had several as rental cars. In particular, the 2020+ versions impressed me for the money.

Exactly. People who think this car has a godawful interior have clearly been spoiled.

Kia Soul is an excellent vehicle for say...someone who just graduated college and got their first job. It’s also one of the extremely limited number of vehicles that still starts under $20k. The old turbo model was even pretty quick.

I mean, the stats don’t lie.

Exercise, eat right, take vitamins.

I’d like to see what the details of this actually are.

Yea, fair point, the true plush luxury doesn’t exist until you get to stuff like a Rolls.
