Ford really said "fuck y'all" and made an 800bhp, Supercharged GT2 RS killer instead of am ev mustang
Except they make the Mach-E, and the Lightning
@@ciromuriel yeah but did they stop making the actual mustangs the regular F-150's? no. they didn't
@@ciromuriel Ford make EV so that they can make V8. Without EV the V8 will die.
@@GF-mf7mlhaving EVs in their lineup is not bad, killing all their lineups to just have EVs is whats lame. I do endorse hybrids though.
@@GF-mf7ml still dont understand the naming, why name it mustang mach E when you can just name it Mach E?
Man, rest in peace Jaguar, you will definitely be missed..
Higly debt Jaguar will stop ice engines seeing how ev rules are constantly pushed futher back.
The people who are in charge are doing more harm to the environment with these rules than good. If they really cared about it, they would subsidize the creation and mass production synthetic fuels so that all cars existing in the road can continue to be used without emitting any CO2. Instead, they’re forcing us to buy new electric SUVs with tax rebates and incentives because it does better for them. It’s always been about the money, never about the environment.
Well said 👏
Even better, they seem to forget that to charge ev's we have to use the power grid. the grid powered by mostly nonrenewable resources, meaning these ev's are still producing decent amounts of co2 by charging, let alone the fact that literally every building in every city is powered by these sources. but instead, they target cars basically putting a band aid on a gashing wound
That’s not where it ends either mate there’s also the way the battery’s are made and how lithium is dangerous and all that Also what the hell happened to Porsches bio fuel they were talking about
@ozoioi79 idk but bmws literally completed hydrogen so that's good I'm guessing porsches efuel/biofuel will arrive by 2029 or smth
Worst part is that's not even where it ends. Not only a lithium ion batteries so dangerous to take apart (a worker in a factory died from taking one of those batteries apart rip), but they literally make people in the dr congo slave just to make them.
I'm just glad the BRZ and 86 got one last refresh with a little more power so we could have the perfect 'cheap' Sportscar before the whole concept turns to 💩
not exactly in europe though, because of emissions tax. Something like the yaris gr ends up costing 90k euros after taxes and first registration. That's what killed it, that's what killed the gr86, that's what will kill many more "enthusiast" cars
@@thundertracker4510 yeah, it's awful and it's scaled completely wrong. A BRZ is going to be better for the environment, not to mention pedestrians and traffic, than a ton of massive SUVs.
@@thundertracker4510 What killed the GR86 in Europe was the engine not being Euro 7 compatible, Toyota limiting sale numbers to 2000 and then only delivering 1000.... for all of Europe...
As someone with a 750kg car (1650lbs) I feel genuinely terrified when I'm driving near 3ton behemoths in traffic

@@sparkietrap6257 ZAZ Tavria
u drivin a Formula 1 car bro?
Why tf ur car so light?
SUV's will NEVER be better for the environment than light sedans and small sports cars.
And don't forget cars that uses a lot of diesel ⛽
People who have small families need sedans. People who have large families need vans. People who are single need small reliable practical hatchbacks. Young people need fun affordable economical coupes. People who enjoy driving need sports cars. People who enjoy sporty outdoor activities and off-roading need real 4x4 trucks and SUVs. And most importantly, we all deserve to have the freedom of choice and variety when it comes to our automobiles. Crossovers/CUVs should not exist. They are the automotive equivalent of cancer. The ONLY reason they are everywhere is because automakers profit WAY more from selling a car that’s marketed as an “SUV” even when it simply isn’t one. They’re all literally just compact and midsized sedans with a useless lift, plastic fenders, heavy tall bodies, bad fuel economy, poor visibility, heaps of unnecessary tech, and higher price tags. And consumers (ESPECIALLY in America) are so unbelievably ignorant to what they want in a car that they will happily pay more for a crossover than a comparable (and safer) sedan/wagon. Plus they get that glorious false sense of security from sitting higher and increasing their rollover risk. It’s so tragic, and so so stupid. We all deserve much better than automakers have been giving us for the past decade.
Fortunately in the uk people dont have love for CUV's (majority of the time atleast)
I collect classics. I have a diesel truck for transporting cars and parts, but otherwise, I ride my Harley everywhere.
Let bro cook some more
Small families, at least for the U.S., can't really settle for just a sedan. Cargo space, a more comfortable ride, and higher visibility are primary advantage of Suvs.
@@ii_dynasty Small families have always used sedans / wagons / vans. Look at any video of traffic from as recently as 20 years ago, and you won’t see an ocean of same-y crossovers as you do today. You’ll see tons of family sedans, wagons, and vans of all different shapes and sizes. You’ll also see real, rugged and capable SUVs and trucks. No oversized, overweight, bloated, copy-paste, hatchbacks with useless ground clearance and plastic stuck under the fenders. That’s what ignorant people drive around today. People who don’t understand that putting a 2 inch lift on an oversized hatchback with independent suspension doesn’t make it an SUV, it just makes the car roll over and end your family when it gets into an accident, especially with something smaller. They’re bigger, uglier, worse on gas, worse handling, more top heavy, have no capability to warrant the excessive height, more expensive to buy and maintain, stuffed full of expensive idiot sensors, and bought by people who don’t know any better. They’ve become the default vehicle option for 90% of clueless people who go to the dealer and just want something with wheels. It’s a lot easier to sell turds to people who dont know they’re buying turds. Those people fuel the greed of the automorive giants, while those of us that enjoy cars and driving and raising families are left with a bunch of different brands selling the same boring fat cars. No more Sedans, hatchbacks, wagons, vans, coupes, convertibles, etc. You can hardly even make the choice of body style and brand anymore, because they all just sell the same 3 sizes of “SUV”s for everything now, and some of the biggest names in the automotive world have even decided that YOU don’t get a choice. You buy a truck, SUV, or crossover, and nothing else.
I miss when cars used to look a lot simpler...
Bring back the flat slab front and rear ends
* cough * *cough * tesla * cough *
@@arcticjake3231He said simpler not sterile
I miss when cars were boats... That's why I bought a 1952 DeSoto Firedome and a 1956 Buick Roadmaster. I'm currently hunting for either a Plymouth Fury, Pontiac GTO or Mercury Comet.
How is this not simple?
I hope this era will be talked about in the future like america's oil crisis in the 80's. I just hope this will be just another rough patch in the history of cars.
well synthetic fuels will keep ICE cars existing but they'll defenitly be way less comon than now
They'll take my hatchback over my cold, dead body.
Fr!
Rip old cars, low emissions is killing old cars 😭
Meanwhile, I at asia driving 32years old Mitsubishi with 1.5L manual car. I'll keep it until 40 years old.
Regulations are for new cars sold not old cars…
It's not the case at all considering the manufacturers are making bigger, more polluting vehicles. The problem isn't low emissions, the problem comes from companies' greed as always
We lose our V8s to save the environment and the corporate offenders that make up 95% of pollution don't even get a slap on the wrist. I don't blame Dodge for the new car because I know Stellantis is forcing their hands. I'm just tired of the problem always being placed on the consumer. Makes me glad I bought my Corvette C5 Z06 a few years ago. I'm going to desperately cling to my V8 until they have to rip it out of my oily burger fueled American hands lol.
Theo has been on this tangent for years, and he’s 100% correct! Keep preaching, save the car! As a 20 year old car enthusiast who grew up in a _peak_ automotive era, I’ve never been more afraid of what the hobby looks like in the future. 🙏
Me too man, I'm only a year older but I'm worried just as bad, cars are my life and it's bad when nothing from 2018 onwards excites you, looks like I'll be stay in the 90's and 2000's
@@bailey33148 - Exactly how I feel. Those cars from our youth will always keep us around, but man is it getting tough. Miss the feeling of actually enjoying hearing about and seeing new models.
@MaximusOverdrive and the market for the older cars we adore is in bits right now, and with governments pushing us away soon it'll end up in a civil war of some kind, where every car guy fights back after pushbacks and being labelled as criminals, to put it in an easy way my impreza can enter the city of Bath without having to pay but a 99 model with the exact same engine cannot.
This isn’t new, people who grew up in the 60s said the same about 70s/80s cars, people from the 80s said the same about 90s/00s. And we had amazing cars all this time. Just like we’ll continue to have. The Charger wasn’t even around for about 20 years before being brought back. And before that it was a FWD hatch. The “good old days” you are missing is just cherry-picking.
@ciromuriel I don't think you get what we were talking about, our government are physically trying to force car guys out, my 2005 car is allowed into city centres where as a 1999 model of my car with the exact same engine and exhaust system isn't allowed, they're forcing these emotionless buckets on us
Young people can’t buy new cars anymore, because the barrier to entry is much more expensive than it was 20 or even 10 years ago. I think this is why SUV’s are generally selling better than small cars, because the only people who can afford to buy new are people in their 30’s who often have families and responsibilities that require more space in their vehicle. I remember a time where you could go to a dealer and buy a new car for less than 10 grand. Now I don’t think a single new car exists below 10 grand MSRP
It weights 5,837 POUNDS???????
eww wtf that is like 2.5 tons
@@slezyorlahe probably wanted it to weigh as much as him 😂
Charger about to tow as much as a light truck
Reportedly is longer and heavier than the BMW X7. That’s crazy!
Doesn't that weigh more than a 70s Charger? And I thought those were houses.
That's not a charger that's a electric boat
@nemesis5113 nah man, that thing will explode when water touches it no really there's like hundreds or even thousands of cases of EV's bursting into flames during floods

Just writing in to say that the EU are looking at banning car repairs to cars over 15 years old to try to improve EV uptake. I wish I was lying
They better buy me a fucking car then when we get to that. As they once said every basic thing rn is a privilege, people will live in tiny compact houses in a hole with nothing and people will be happy about it..
This is dictatorial, I can't believe it's come to this

At the end of 2016 my dad bought a Qashqai, and now after my mum bought an Alfa Romeo Giulietta, and I became old enough to drive and got an E46 Compact as a first car, he is saying that SUVs (tall cars in general) are not good. They don't look good and they handle bad (his words). So there is hope, that people will start wanting normal cars again, after going through their phase of SUVs, Crossovers and so on.
Love how passionate this man is about his automobiles
Bro can't see that we haven't had a performance orientated Straight 6 in the past 10 years that wasn't made by BMW. This is gonna get interesting by my perspective
what about the mighty barra? (its a lil old but still)
It’s the government, the companies are just complying to what the government is forcing them to do.
The "little city cars" you're talking about will very likely be stuff like the new Citroën Ami, not the exciting stuff you have in your mind, like a Civic Type R or something.
Why would Jaguar follow a full SUV lineup when Land Rover (WHO ONLY MAKE SUVS) are partnered with them 💀
In paris SUVs will be charged with a new tax to park 😂
Oh he mentioned that
they only care about taxing people and help illegals live with subsidies
Car companies going EV's or SUV's are really truly a sign that they survive for so long, I have nothing against EV's and SUV's, just the bad companies choices and government too, also don't forget that EU would pass a law or bill to stop people getting their cars that are over a certain age like 15 year or older to be sent to get repaired or whatever which would truly kill the second hand market and new drivers too, so yeah
The elephant noises got me dead😂😂😂😂
They much prefer to Control ur car and like in video games, sell you services and mtxs to make ur game/ irl automobile “function” This is just the greed of the world.
Again ban cars and games together world would be better off anyway
Welcome to capitalism
This is not an EV specific thing. Gas cars are also controlled by computers and do require electricity to run. Try running your car with the battery unplugged, it won't even start.
@@thedumbconspirator4956Ye but gas car dont need a computer in it to live, they need electricity, not a fcking computer that control everything That's why old car still live to this day, the computer and apple play part only there to drain more money. Look at toyota and their 10k mini truck.
@@drkreuzer670 More like welcome to a global dictatorship.
Not to mention, the heavier the car, the more damage it does to roads and anything it ends up hitting and guess who pays for it? Everyone.
I assume the rise of SUV sales is a psychological phenomenon. People driving small cars would feel worried driving among a sea of large SUVs from a safety standpoint. In response they would buy an SUV to feel safer. But what it ends up doing is making everyone buy SUVs altogether. Some jurisdictions are considering hiking registration fees and taxes on vehicles based on weight as heavy cars are damaging road infrastructures.
Before: The 1 single small tree destroyed my Charger after hitting it at 60mph. Now: My hybrid sedan deforested my entire neighbourhood.
And caused a massive wildfire afterwards.
They are the reason why we that Canadian fire
Completely agree. It’s stubbornness from governments that have us in this position right now. Hybrids using synthetic fuels should be the foreseeable future of cars, it’s the only thing that seems sustainable enough for now whilst they keep working on things like hydrogen etc. These knobheads that lease an electric SUV for a year then trade it in for a new one because the battery doesn’t last as long and they’re a bit bored of it are doing far worse for the environment than my 300hp petrol hot hatch that I keep for a long time.
I think the main enemy here is SUVs and crossovers. Not electric cars, electric cars are great because they're incredibly efficient, much more so than hybrids, gas and hydrogen vehicles. They also tap into an already prosperous grid without having to build a whole new infrastructure around hydrogen cars. I think a small electric car sized like a corolla with a 250 mile range would be great. No need for a big battery pack and the efficiency figures would be through the roof.
@@thedumbconspirator4956 could you imagine if they got rid of sedan's and sports cars. But once they came back electric you got to pay extra for it. Then people get mad saying only rich folks can afford sedan's.
Then we need to ask the government now in order keep the sports car culture keep on going
@@malikcutchin the problem with EVs is people and critics bashing on range and not enough on charging infrastructure. Nobody is implementing charging stations, so automakers try to put more range by cramming in gargantuan battery sizes with makes the car astronomically heavy and expensive. Small electric hatchback, 250 km range, 40-50 kWh battery is all you need. Not a Mercedes EQS with a 110 kWh pack.
@@thedumbconspirator4956 Oh yeah them jokers are heavy but in America bigger seem to be the trend. But yeah have you seen what mostly being purchased. So yeah we will have heavy vehicles that will be bad when accidents happen.
It's sad that most dealerships now will have nothing but SUVs or crossovers

@@skythundersky1544 well for one this guy is fraud and a sellout of triple a industry
I knew a kid that tried to lease a Honda Pilot. No kids, no wife, no pets even. Not even for work, he just wanted an SUV. He was pissed off when all he qualified for was a Honda HRV. I looked at him straight in the eyes and told him if he doesn't need an SUV, then he shouldn't get one. And that's the mentality that people have these days. They want these landyatchs to feel important, to show off. That's the major difference between car guys and those people; we drive our cars for _our_ pleasure, and don't care about what other think. Those people don't really buy it for them, they just want to show off.
Remember when sports cars were a thing? Like, decent, affordable ones? Remember when pick-ups that were actually made for and fit for transporting stuff in normal conditions still existed? Remember when luxury cars were actually luxurious and weren't just miniature nightclubs? Remember when people didn't think they needed a 2.5-ton, gasket-blowing, pedestrian-obliterating, fuel-wasting post-modern aberration on wheels to "be safe", "have more space" and "drive over potholes"? Weren't we meant to NOT waste non-renewable resources?
The death of the jaaag..
All of Theo’s information is wrong when it comes to Jaguar unfortunately (I work for JLR) Jaguars new lineup from 2025 is going to consist of three cars: One sporty saloon car, one SUV and one Sports car. We don’t know anything else than this at the moment. But everything is going to be electric (very poopy).
@@gogosep Jaguar has been destroyed and sabotaged by many of its stupid and incompetend CEO's throught the decades. Xj220, XC-75, XJ41, R concept, they could rival Bentley and Aston if being produced but someone said lets make small shity plastic cars to compete with Bmw and Audi.
Older Jaaags are more popular anyway.
Yo we need more pants rants
Also, the new triangle on the new charger is the Fratzog logo, last used by Dodge between 1962-1981.
one of these days. we will get Rally stage races with only SUVs
I was shocked when i saw that some euro 6 spec SUV produce almost double the emissions than my euro 4 spec 206 GTi, and also i live in a small town in Czech Republic where are a lot of tight roads and seeing a SUV going against you is the is scariest thing ever. Also i agree with France SUVs should pay more for parking a lot of times happened to me i couldn't get in my car (cause it's a 3 door 206 GTi and the doors are long af.) cause biggen parked right next to me and a lot of times i have climb through the passenger side when that happens.
My father had 1989 Opel Kadett E LS-E Special Edition with factory tuned 1.8 engine. It was emitting half the emissions of an average car from from past 2-4 years when it was inspected just month ago before selling it to enthusiast. Also weight that's almost half the weight of said cars. Even on my 2000 Citroen Xantia, I sometimes feel terrified on small roads around my area when those SUV/CUV come towards me.
Fat acceptance but cars in a nutshell
more like mtx but cars
Can't wait for smaller / sportier cars to make a comeback after the world moves to disgusting fat cars and gets fed up with them.
Great video Theo! 👏🏽I can confirm about every SUV driver (m/f) only goes to shopping alone or they drop off the kids at school!
This's such s good and educational video loved it
I agree Theo, I owned an Alfa Romeo, loved it, swapped it for a Seat Ibiza because the Alfa was being a typical Alfa and falling apart, the Ibiza wasn’t signing all the right notes, and I ended up with the Arona crossover and it was soulless and I now have a 2016 Mini Cooper S in blue, like you tested years ago with Meadow, and I intend to run that car until it dies, which, with annual services and general upkeep, will be unlikely for years yet
After 6 months Theo's reaction channel returns with a new video!
More videos like this Theo! Also we need Pacific Drive episode 2 please!
You know it’s a serious video when Theo doesn’t add music.
That "mitsubishi badge" was the original dodge logo. Its on the 60s cars.
The probably newest car in my family is a VW Sportsvan as they are called now (Golf plus before) from my Grandparents. A simple 2L Diesel and it works very nicely. second would be the VW Caddy from my stepdad, a 1.2L TSI, nice for the family and to haul things, works great for everything you throw at it and still is smaller than an SUV while even carrying a lot more.
It's sad how one of the only brands who care about cars is Toyota, meanwhile all these sporty brands like Dodge or Jaguar are basically bankrupting themselves to join already oversaturated markets
Add Mazda to those that care, with MX-5 being one of the last fun lightweight affordable cars you can buy.
Facts....this is the sad reality 😞..
Love my 07 Honda Fit. Small, reliable, light, simple, yet still has a similar amount of interior space to most new small SUV's. SUV's are dumb.
Ty, for your car new coverage! I'm so sad, but not surprised how the automotive industry is moving. They're subsidized by the Government (in USA anyway).. So no more real cars..
DAMN I haven't seen a BlackPanthaa video in probably 5 years, and he had a MAJOR glow-up! No more stubble, some meat on his bones, and the hair is dope fr! IK that sounds super weird to say now that ive typed it up, but im just being honest.
Been a car guy my whole life. From SRT8 to Golf R. So on and so on. Im almost 30 now, and i bought my first SUV. A 2024 Tiguan. And confidently, as a only vehicle, ill never go back. It is better in every way except straight line illegal speeds. Its more comfortable, more practical, better on fuel, it opens up more potential to have more fulfilling hobbies and carries alot more friends along in comfort.
You cant have a Charger without a V8, that is the only type of engine it deserves.
Supposedly Jag's coming out with a 4 door electric GT later this year but you cant help but have that sinking feeling that its best days are behind it. Those XJs, the XK (my personal favourite given we've had one in the family the last 12 years), the F-Type, the XE, even the XF - The end of an era...
It's best days were behind it since post 2008.
Cool name for the channel👍🏻. Post more rant videos here they're good!
Great video. Tho that's some bad news from Dodge and Jaguar
Those are the Batteries causing that weight, the Inline 6 twin turbo version will be lighter. The Fratzog logo is From Dodge's/ Chrysler's History in 60s-70s check the Car Models FH5 or Forza Motorsport or GT7 the logo's are easter eggs all over the oldskool Models. The Daytona is an EV AWD tank on wheels, it will be dangerous in online lobbies for sure😂
I love my golf 4, it was my first car and I am currently driving it for 10 years and did a lot with and to it; bodykit, wrapping, rims etc. Of course, I intended to upgrade in those 10 years many times; from Ford Mustang 67, to Ford Focus Rs, to a newer Mustang to now Stalion. Yes, because in those 10 years, gas prices and overall costs for those cars I wanted in my teens...they are not affordable for me - they were expensive in the beginning anyway, but now? My golf 4 is doing absolutely fine, but damn, I think JDM will be my next true upgrade.
For those saying: "I like an SUV, because I can sit higher and have a lot of space" I always respond: "Buy yourself a Ford Transit/ VW Transporter". A perfect blend of majority of customers not caring, legislature promoting transportation for the rich and companies fixated on short-term profit rather than long-term gains - all this is set to kill the transportation for the lower classes, and thus kill the car and the fun that came with it. Because, lets be honest - although a new Lambo or a classic McLaren F1 are works of art, the true heroes of our love for cars were the Fiesta STs, the non-posh 3 series, cheap coupes like the Cougar and all the other cars like these.
0:53 it’s a old challenger badge lol
Instead of the current Hurricane to bad Chrysler didn't do a Barra on the 4.0. The bones of the Barra go back to the Thriftmaster 140 cid inline from the first Falcon. The 4.0's bones go back to the 232 and 199. A DOHC version used in a race series sleeved down to 3.0L iirc gets 500 ponies with two 2bbl Weber downdrafts. Using the 4.0's basic architecture could yield a family of engines anywhere from 3 to around 5 liters depending on bore and stroke combination. A beefed up block and rotating assembly could possibly yeild a diesel.
My theory( atleast for America) for why "Sporty"/ Luxury SUV's and crossovers are so popular are these two main reasons. 1. The Roads and infrastructure suck and its easier to deal with them with a big SUV or truck. 2. A lot of people who want to the performance and status of a Luxury vehicle, also want the additional safety and visibility of it being an SUV.
When did unpainted plastic cladding go from a base trim thing to an expensive option on luxury cars?
We need more videos on the vlog channel!
Fun fact the hellcats do put down close to 600 hp on the dino... So if these manage to have less mechanical losses it could basically be rhe same speed wise since the new cars (probably) weigh less than their predecessors
Get a motorcycle while you still can if youre a motoring enthusiast. The prices are going up and emission regulations are destroying them.
On one hand, I feel sad that the market is shifting to SUVs and similar atrocities. On the other hand, I had no idea who is buying these, me and everyone I know can barely afford a 10 year old commuter cars, so it seems like the people who actually care about cars cannot afford them at the moment. The fact that every regular car costs so much these days doesnt really help the situation at all.
6:23 sir, I understand your anger, I realized that in Italy the cheapest and best-selling brand has been taken by Dacia and soon the Chinese MGs will arrive (the MG3 is practically the Grande Punto) overtaking Fiat. Among other things, they want to close Mirafiori, it's incredible what's happening in the motoring world (maybe the concept is different though)
Cant run away from the Future
"Ford is going to kill the Focus" Americans- "First time?"
Now every car enthusiast is going cuban way of preserving the old expect I kinda like the new charger, if it has v6 option too atleast even if it is controversional
Just to clarify: Jaguar isn't going only SUV. They're going all-in on electric cars with a new electric coupe GT and sedan launching next year. They're dropping the current models to clean out inventory ahead lf the brand relaunch next year.
I have a suspicion that Jaguar will be replacing the F-type with an electric sports car in the next couple of years, as well as releasing an electric saloon. Not confirmed until its for sale of course...
The last part is so true got my Honda Jazz for now 6 years, small car, that can do below what Honda advertise if I drive normally, yet if I want, I can drive in a way that makes me smile, it has enough space inside, you can put a lot of stuff and also it gives me emotions that I rarely feel (I am autistic). It only has 130hp yet it is more fun to drive then even a Cupra Leon, at least the newer one or any new car that I could drive. And 2,6 tons for a car is basically driving a boat on long straights🤣🤣, the car looks ok, the logo is a call back to the 70's from what I remember, yet it is so weird to now associate Muscle car with electric or a straight six
It’s times like these that make me appreciate my Skoda Citigo
I drove a 2020 Jaguar E-Pace Checkered Flag Edition for a whole weekend for work, and it was just depressing. The only good things about it were the steering wheel (nice to the touch) and it was a special color (Photon Red, which is pretty much just orange in most lighting lol) - The lack of power was disappointing, and the transmission just didn’t know how to be a transmission. Considering it’s a “sporty” SUV crossover thing, it was wayyyy too stiff for daily driving, and again, the transmission was just bad for what you’d expect in a Jaguar. It was used and only had about 17k miles on it and was listed for $29k US. I couldn’t imagine how ripped-off I would feel if I had purchased it new (not that I would’ve wanted one new LOL)
there are more trucks and SUV's here in KY than small cars I can barely find a good reliable car that is not pushing into luxury territory as much as I can see is KIA, Hyundai and Nissan Honda still sells Civics and Toyota still sells their corolla down here but with a high markup
I think the new charger looks great. Also much needed improvements with the rubber

There's still a lot of great cars. Things are changing and some cars suck but if you look around some of the best cars in history are being made right now. I think we look back with nostalgia on old cars but we don't remember how flawed they were.
It’s so hard just to work on a car these days making it so you after go to a garage for a bulb change wtf this means when everything electric the mechanics will only have bulbs to change lol
You should start a podcast about cars probably.
I have a nissan leaf. It's a small electric hatch back. It has 107 HP but the car is exciting. It's fairly zippy when you take off eco-mode. You can't really go super far. But if your just going a little ways it's great. It basicly feels like a e-bike or a e-scooter but enhanced. Because you can go further then those and you don't get rained on yourself. The 0-60 isn't fast. But once your allready moving you can go faster easily. But at the cost of range. I wouldnt even compare a gas engine to an electric in terms of horse power. Even if there's 100 more horses in a gas engine then electric and the electric weighs more. I'd still want it way over the v8. The thing is that the acceleration is just different. Why you see electric cars go slow is because if your going really far. You can go much further if you drive alot slower. How I drive is I try to use the minimum amount of electricity. When I go down a hill I gain momentum. Trying to use momentum when I go up a big hill so I don't have to use as much electricity. The car could go up the hill no problem. But I always try to drive it lightly incase I have to drive more later that day because the range just isn't great to drive a lot in one day. My car is just really outdated. My car can only go like 82 miles compared to new cars. That can go way further.
The fact that I am slowly having my choice taken away from me in favour of these tasteless, heavy, fat murder machines is really pissing me off tbh.
Right now it's the sports car market that fades. Next decade, it's the sedan market
Sedans are alredy gone especially in europe
