I...really like this idea. We live in an older house in New England, so no off street parking, and we wondered how feasible having an EV would be using only charging stations during the week. We wouldn’t have to “top off” every day. Read more

Agreed as far as RWD, NAfull size sedans. The current Honda Accord actually has more leg room (front & rear) and more room in the trunk. Similarly priced - not including dealer shenanigans.

Well, yes & no. The more successful dealers drive Escalades. Those at the lower end of the scale are still in clapped out Pontiac Grand Ams

The have to start someplace. Now, will this car be enough to overcome the inertia of how Acura has been perceived over the last decade plus? Perhaps not. But, if they build on this and can make successful, desirable cars, perhaps over time they can regain their lost prestige.

I was actually hoping to trade in my 2018 Honda Accord 2.0T and upgrade to this. But with less usable rear seat space and a growing son, I can’t justify it.

Car manufacturers & suppliers keep demonstrating the same behavior (i.e. VAG and DieselGate, Goodyear and incorrectly rated tires, Toyota and accelerator issues, Firestone and and quality control, etc.).

If you know the area at all (Sudbury, Weston, Wayland) chances are this individual can afford any ticket. The “downmarket” car dealership on Rt. 20 is BMW of Sudbury.

Very cool to see up close; the collaboration with MIT is a real thing. I’m stuck in the greys but maybe someone will see these.

First off: couldn’t afford it on my salary and with my current debts. Read more
