L-finesse is alive!

Tesla has always been the worst. Older versions cant even parallel park themselves properly. But Tesla did conquer the marketing by allowing illegal and dangerous hands free driving that spiked the flood of videos and images of people sleeping while being driven etc.

It is what it is at this point.

Porsche might be partying too hard in these testing sessions but Ferrari is visceral looking on the track. If they loose out on the P1 after Saturday it would be rather due to their inexperience than the actual car. Can't really tell how Toyota is up ahead until BoP revision cause their BoP...

Session 2 went great for Akkodis apparently. Lets see if they can translate that into real world performance on Saturday. When it comes to hypercars I would rather keep my mouth shut. Unfortunately I can't, it's already turning into Porsche-Ferrari shitshow. So predictable and obvious what...

Economy interiors in luxury cars is Tesla effect. Once premium manufacturers saw that Tesla can sell a car with economy grade interior for the price of car with premium interior they all just went into dollar saving mode. Interior today are just plain horrible. Flagships are fine, new BMW 7 with...

The day they announced it! :)))))))) I kid, I kid!

Toyota WEC cars have been hit with substantial BoP for the first race weekend. Ferrari escaped the BoP with a scratch so I would assume they are the favorites to win the WEC opener. Peugeot got big boost in performance as well.

That's my opinion based off the information I've gathered through years. WEC wanted more manufacturers and in order to attract them they've lowered the budget required to enter and run in the series but at the cost of performance and being a flagship prototype and GT racing series. While...

Whats not remotely true?

WEC was at it's peak with LMP1 when those cars were faster in corners than F1 cars but VW group shot the manufacturing costs up in the space and completely ruined it for everybody as FIA/ACO was scared to do anything about it. Toyota's budget was 50 million while the budget for whole VW group...

Don't know how start this discussion without generating heat here but most of the sports cars in Europe are getting wounded because of emissions taxes but this car straight out died because of outdated underpinnings and outdated engine. This car has whopping €60,000 emissions tax compared to...

El Gigante? Yup, they're trollin

Dead last in this group BEV total range test

Not sure this was the original plan. Either they hit some tooling/financial struggle with manufacturing two vehicles with two different physical variations, which was nonsense to begin with or CX-90 exceeded the expectations. Since day one the talk was both CX60/CX70 and CX90/CX80 are to be...

If that's the case that makes it even worse. Cool, it's his conglomerate but by treating it like a fanboy is not something conglomerate leaders do. Just because you can override the board and name all of your products Akio doesn't mean you should. It's one thing to try to infuse emotion and...

Lol, just found out Morizo is Akios forum username. I heard about Morizo Toyotas but never knew the context of it. How did this Morizo branding of an Lexus model actually clear the Lexus marketing department? How did they allow Toyota trim level brandname to be put alongside Lexus badge? And...

Mercedes knows how to move $100K+ cars for sure. Those S-class and AMG GT sales are impressive. EQS combo is also as impressive.

Remote play .. I mean drive is a neat idea and it was only a matter of time before manufacturers pick up on it. When it comes to voice assistants in cars they are still not up to par. You ask them a question they repeat the question (so you can make sure they understood the question) and then...

Some very subtle changes to AFEELA to make it production ready. Front LED screen bar now has thick side bezels. Mounted mirrors cause Murica dont like cameras. New headlights. Thicker DRL brows. No rear LED screen bar. And I can't pin point my finger but it seems like they've reworked some...
