I wish they did rear facing seat tests in more cars.
They both reproduced … so tbd
They did the seat tests for the first couple cars I think, bit who knows how long ago some of these videos were filmed. Could be months.

The rest of the country is slower because cops collect taxes from us poor people. Apparently you guys don't have law enforcement. We certainly do not. Defund baby. The most annoying part is going 85 in the left lane and having someone ride your ass constantly because you’re too slow. Sounds like pe...

She ghosted the property management company after submitting the rental app, and then ghosted us. Having that dump truck ass and her corgi pup prancing around the house was too good to be true.

I know how it works, I just thought you meant it's impossible to be smooth with your feet during transitions between holding speed and letting the car slow itself down. Like gradually coming off the pedal to lower the rate at which the car behind to slow down, making it smoother and undetectable. N...

Hmm I guess the torque converter helps to smooth the transition in ICE cars. I'd love to try the one pedal thing for myself though I kind of misspoke . There's no neutral or torque converter, direct drive. But an electric motor can free spin if you program it to not Regen. That's all the "one ...

I imagine people are "getting sick" because the driver is using it like an on/off switch The problem is that's what it is! You're either speeding up or slowing down, there's no coasting no matter how hard you try. That's a different feeling than a normal ICE vehicle, and I can see how tha...

Wife and I drove a Rav4 Hybrid XLE Premium tonight. Solid contender. This one was too expensive. Optioned up with things we wouldn’t need and somewhere around $42,200 OTD. But it gave us a decent feel for the vehicle. Cargo space seems good for us. Feels kind of large from behind the wheel and that...

Forgot to mention. One pedal driving is awesome. I did it on the Queef yesterday and once you adjust 5min into driving. It is completely seamless, you give 10% gas pedal for 10% slow down, 5% is 15% and 0 is 20% deceleration. So you can basically drive without touching the brake unless there is an ...

Tesla's Supercharger network will be open to other manufacturers later this year. I suspected this was coming since they have no more EV credits to sell for money, and this is easy revenue.

The Ionic is definitely positioned as a premium product. The Kona EV plays in the Leaf/Bolt space
Then shouldn't it be a Genesys?
I think the Ionic/EV6 will occupy the 40-55k space. They're Mach-E sized. About that will be for Genesis.

Well I am semi thinking about the I3 ... which is worlds more interesting than either. Super cool interior... felt peppier to drive... and a bit more distinctive looking. But I am in the minority of actually liking that styling. The i3 looks fantastic. Dat Kia will be out this year. Chassis dynamic...
