Jumping off a sinking ship. He must have seen all of those stranded Teslas in California unable to charge.
I don't think they're completely horrendous... like an EV interpretation of the hundred spoke Daytons. But definitely wouldn't be my choice.Not much in the way of details given, but a new EV coming out from Genesis/Hyundai/Kia. I think they should fire whomever is designing their wheels. The rest of it is okay though.
The 2024 Genesis GV90 Will Be Three-Row Luxury, Electrified
The 2024 Genesis GV90 will be an electric-only SUV with three rows of seating and space for up to eight passengers, bringing luxury equipment to everyone.www.motortrend.com
Putting design aside, I like washing my own car. So wheels with few spokes, and lots of space between the spokes, are crucial for easy cleaning. Not to mention they make for lighter wheels and less unsprung mass.
Wheels with too few spokes don't look right with the curb feelers. But I'm with ya.
Ralph Nader Calls For Tesla Autopilot to Be Recalled
"Tesla never should have put this technology in its vehicles," Nader said.www.roadandtrack.com
People still make this ludicrous argument? Nader told Gore he'd back out of the election if he adopted certain key parts of his platform that his supporters wanted, and Gore wouldn't do it. Thus, when people went to cast their vote for who they thought would be the best president, some preferred Nader over Gore. Not to mention, the people who blame Nader just assume that all of Nader's votes would have otherwise gone to Gore, when if you look at the exit polls, some of them would have actually gone to Bush for some reason, but many would have just not voted for either. Gore lost because of the electoral college, and because our voting format where we approve of one candidate and disapprove of all others lends itself to the spoiler effect. Ranked choice voting would fix this, but of course the Democrats and Republicans both oppose it because they don't support anything that would give us more choices and a more robust democracy.
Call me skeptical about the claimed range.
Fisker Claims Ronin Will Be a Convertible with a 600-Mile Range
The Ronin will be an electric sports car with room for four, and Fisker is targeting the longest range for a production EV—a title currently held by the 520-mile Lucid Air.www.caranddriver.com
Fisker has mastered the art of press releases. Vehicle production? Not so much
I began buying Tesla stock since June 1st. As of right now I'm up 24%. I don't think the ship is sinking.
That was tongue in cheek for a particular troll who's doing his best to infect the thread with a mountain of lies regarding EVs.
If I only had a dime for every time somebody said that about some stock and was wrong...
Wow, that's some influence Musk must have. 10 years later and still no high speed rail. California government loves Musk, right? And after all, California never bogs down infrastructure projects with red tape, bureaucracy, permitting, and regulations.
Elon Musk’s Hyperloop idea was just a ruse to kill California’s high-speed rail project

Haha, click on my profile on the left then click on yours.
Not all that strange. Auto manufacturers make statements about future plans all the time and then change course as needs dictate.
I didn't watch the video. But... I would be feeling a little uneasy driving an EV into water like that. Even if it was perfectly safe.
