I'll lay out the fundamental problem with EVs:>it's the batteries, stupid!Batteries are about 16x less dense than gasoline. Even when you take into account the superior efficiency of electric motors (70-90ish % vs 40% for ICEs) that only makes batteries about 1/10th as good as gasoline. Fuel cells are the only realistic answer in the near-term, and that tech hasn't gone anywhere in decades. So until the battery problem is solved, failures like Ford's F-150 electric shitbox are going to worsen as consumers figure out that EVs suck. And no, battery research is never going to solve the problem (at least not for hundreds of years). Battery tech is very slow to advance, it has always been slow to advance, and there are no "breakthrough" technologies that will change that.
>>27842433then its the exception, but the fundamental math of the equation doesn't change.
>>27842451The math doesn't have to change, because you're both wrong and a moron
>>27842410Cope and seethe. The EV experiment has completely failed.
>>27842405Planned obsolesce isn't real.
>>27842116> a theoretical battery breakthroughWell when that happens AND they’ve solved mass production issues, get back to us.It also still doesn’t solve the charging infrastructure and time delay problem.
When did we peak, G/o/lf chads?
>>27840874I'm biased since I've owned 3, but mk4, but only the ones actually built in germany.
best is golf3 on all aspects
>>27840874Mk.4 R32
>>27842364>>27842618chicken dinner
>>27840877mk2 is peak. mk1-4 is acceptable.everything after is an incel car
The best car color.
SAAB Scarabe Green Metallic
>>27842332lol you don't even know what wax does
>white (most boring color and lowest quality paint double whammy of absolute bottom tier)>black (second most boring color and shows dirt 5 seconds after a wash, boils you alive)>silver (npc mobile, would look good on high end cars if it wasn't insanely overused like white and black)If you have the choice of any color even washed out maroon or granny champagne and you choose one of these 3 kill yourself immediately
>>27840333I'm going to wrap mine yellow. Yellow was not offered as a color in my car.
BAB is up there.
>indian automaker>is literally the "joke company" of the whole game, whose products are known as complete dogshit and prone to killing peoplelol
>>27841242>wrangle shekels from ultra poorsidk man that takes effort. Kinda based.
>>27841242Makigai MaiMai exist
>>27841242i'd sooner take my chances in a $15k chinese ev than any vehicle coming out of india, that's for sure
>>27842429makigai is soulful as fuck
And here....we....go....
>>27842691based. EV shills on suicide watch
>>27842691>GAS AND DIESEL TRUCKS INSTEADLmao we're SO BACK
If Japanese cars are so amazing, then why can't this brand into quality rides?
lol you know wrxs are ugly slow and gay, right?
>>27841921So what's your suggestion for people who want cuckovers? Because that's Subarus bread and butter
>>27839594I like Subaru’s cars. They handle well and are well built for the northeastern winters. I kinda want one of their WRXs but I’d definitely waste it because I’m from Vermont and no one hear drives fast.
>>27841207AWD is really nice for the rain and snow, there have been trips where I would have crashed or come close to it without AWD
>>27841230My dealership experience with Subaru has not been terrible, as compared to Toyota and Mazda. That being said, it's still sucks.
These things are absolutely repulsive looking. I don’t care if it’s supposed to be a throwback to the original. It looks like ass. Yes it’s fast but that is the only positive thing that can be said about it. It’s also a massive car. Muscle cars were not always this big. Look at the muscle cars from the 80s and 90s. They were much more tastefully designed and smaller and more nimble. These modern muscle cars are all oversized fat and ugly looking. Overall just a trashy car for trashy people. It screams trailer trash, nigger or military douchebag.
>>27842085>Yes it’s fastOnly the 392 and up. R/Ts are just "quick" and base models are a joke.
>>27842085post your car
>>27842085nah they look basedpost your car
>>27842085Agree 100 percent. Pic related is the future of how cars should look.

Literally the greatest vehicle in human history
>>27842357The Prius is better, new one looks better too.
>>27838833lol no, you can't win wars with camrys
>>27838833>Literally the greatest vehicle in human historyIf the Camry had never existed, no one would miss it. It's so similar to twenty or so other mid-size sedans of it's era.
>>27842357
Avalon is kino But I'm a big guy (4u)
"Thanks for continuing to buy gas cars, /o/! My seventeen year old son loves his new Bugatti."
Thank you based Sheikh.
>>27839504those are norweigans
>>27840124holy shit what car that looks so good
>>27839645Actually we're the world's largest fossil fuel exporter.

What's a car where every time you see it, you can't help but think of a fictional character driving it?
my black friend's "dad"s car
How come old cars are so fucked up with recalls up the wazoos? Each of these recalls cost billions of dollars each time. And there's like so many recalls every year from all the companies. https://www.kbb.com/recall/
>>27841553it's a shitty truck
>>27842499Each engine replacement costs ~$7000 each. x 100K = 700M alone in raw costs.
>>27840774It's the first bearing in line from the oil pump, so it takes the brunt of the debris. Debris in your engine is such a monumental fuckup that's it's honestly more embarrassing than a weak bearing design or some other engineering issue.
>>27841828There is certainly a main channel feeding all the bearings but then there should be individual channels feeding each bearing off that main channel. Maybe just one of those was not cleaned properly. Or maybe it was the last one right off where it was all accumulating in the main channel. I don't know just spitballing.
>>27842499You think they're swapping engines for $29.41 a piece?
>every single day something new breaks off I love the engine and transmission but holy fuck what a fucking weak ass truck, it's pathetic just how much plastic I've littered just croozing around. The alabama trashcan memes were right.
>>27841714Only an esl would complain/notice about small mistakes
>>27840689>waah im a wrenchlet
>>27840689My interior and body are still perfect. But the rear brakes are out and it's parked in the healing weeds until beer santa leaves $1k under my pillow.Lovely drivetrain though.
>>27841186>>27841667I was there for this. You post this crap as often as the z3 autist. Atleast that's a boomer convertible. Get a life or atleast a better car
>>27842421I already have two better cars lmao, get your game up busrider fag.Your mom's hyundai doesn't count as your car btw.
would you buy this for $30k?
>>27840951fiberglass. general motors running gear. canadian. fuck no easy pass.
>>27840951Fuck noThese pieces of shit are forever under $5k cars
The wiki page is a nonstop laugh riot.It's worth 30 grand to someone somewhere but that isn't me and here.
if i made $25 million a year$30k to someone who makes $25mil annually is the equivalent of $50 to someone who makes $40k per year.
>>27840951God no. It looks loud and uncomfortable as fuck.
What does /o/ make of this?Will you be getting a chinese car?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfcJNx1hqFQ
>>27839783Irrelevant, voting is fake. All your presidents are relatives.
>>27835649Especially when it favors state corporations in China for a few jobs here.
>>27835920Instant torque is hard to give up once you've experienced it, there's basically no mechanical noise or vibration and the battery pack also acts as a huge sound deadener so they are extremely quiet which is great if you're an audiophile. They're heavy pigs but mass also absorbs bumps and vibrations so they ride really nicelyThey're great for daily driving and when you just want to go fast in a straight line.
>>27835293more proof that Trump and his followers are fucking retarded.
>>27835812what soulful car did you drive?
