One big radiator will generally work better than a bunch of small ones, but may present some packaging problems. But here is something I didn’t notice at first:

Is this going to be the first hyper cars with pushrods? 

Not all that different. Ice is still around 35% efficient so there is still 3.75MW of heat to get rid of. 

I think that's a cover hiding some secret buttons. 

What is the thing opposite of the alternator? 

I think that's a remote waste gate. 

Making German wanna be knock offs is a much better business model. The customer base for rolls Royce is rather limited. 

Absolutely. I think as far as educated guesses go, there is every reason to think that both of those are very good ones.

What I see in personal experience in manufacturing (and hear from my spouse) is that costs change frequently, and by a surprising magnitude on existing products. In other words, here you are making the same gizmo over and over, and have been for some time. You’re selling at the same price, but your costs change from…

Married to a cost accountant, so yes, maybe once or twice.

Hiding behind fancy words like analysis, is an educated guess. Whether its Munroe or UBS doesn’t matter, there is no way they can extrapolate what a non existent model, will cost at some point in the future. Even Tesla, that knows far more, can only roughly estimate at this point.

1. If you’re into that sort of thing, the best (by which I mean quirkiest) soviet car was clearly the ZAZ. Just look at it. It’s mid engine. Its air cooled. It’s got cartoon ears.

My last car buying experience sucked despite my not getting screwed.

Those panel gaps!

Wonder how it compares to airforce one and other planes whose job it is to carry the heads of state.

Especially a very small sinking vessel, with a tiny hatch, while having gigantic tanks strapped to you back.

I have never seen that admittedly nifty gizmo, so I don’t know anything about it. If it comes stock with the vehicle, I agree chances are good that they properly tested in in all kinds of conditions.

depends on what happens when it gets stuck. Does it just fail to function, or does quit functioning?

Now I’ve see a lambo that’s worse that an avalon...
