You Crazy, that Ferrari is butt ugly, nothing special there, Corvette so beats that hands down. Nothing mad here, just shocked that anyone would find it attractive. Hell that makes the butt ugly Chevrolet Pickup trucks pretty. ?

Ford Focus RS is officially dead in Europe as the auto cannot meet the current or future emission requirements. https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2020/04/european-emission-regulations-killed-the-ford-focus-rs/ Ford News gets worse, Ford is expected to have a $2 billion dollar loss for Q1 of 2020 after a terrible Q4 2019. China and Europe blinked off in mid January and as such, Ford SEC filing is stating a 16% drop for Q1 of 2020 and Q2 could get much worse. OUCH ? https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2020/04/gird-your-investor-loins-ford-predicts-2-billion-loss/ Awesome ride, asking price for this 1988 T-Top Buick LeSabre is $6,500 https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2020/04/rare-rides-the-1988-buick-lesabre-t-type-coupe/

Quick Drive: 2020 Toyota Camry XLE V6
Yes you Amish are all about keeping status quo and ignoring the ability to move forward with better tech. Sadly, when hybrids have been done, they have been done half ass in some cases and yet as proven by the sales, Toyota took a half ass version of the Rav4 hybrid, finally updated with a gen 2 hybrid and now that thing is superior in all ways to the ICE Rav4. Toyota needs to move forward with that on all auto's as does every other OEM.

Hoping that the new breakthroughs in Solid State batteries can get into production to keep EVs on schedule for coming out and lower prices.

For me, Beautiful Appreciation of the SUVs. GMC nails it far better than the mess at Chevrolet especially recently.

Quick Drive: 2020 Toyota Camry XLE V6
I am honestly surprised Toyota has not just dropped all basic ICE and put various power levels of their Prius Hybrid system into all the auto's and move forward. This is my thinking also with how Chevrolet should have pushed the Volt system into CUVs way before everyone else rather than the tight little 4 door sedan they stuck with. I honestly find the Toyota style just like the Lexus to be butt ugly. The interior looks like a mashed up mess. This will sell well to the Lemming Faithful, but I would not expect it to gain market share unless everyone else just gives up of those that are left.

Wonderful NOT, incompetent leadership strikes again in that the EPA has removed the laws covering regulation of lead and other harmful emissions that can affect our kids and our health all for the all mighty dollar. https://electrek.co/2020/04/16/epa-kills-mercury-pollution-rule-putting-pregnant-women-minorities-at-risk/#more-130668

Amazing the BS Junk coming out of Germany. Guess they truly cannot compete in EVs so they are falling back on making their whole product lines Hybrids and that comes with Worse MPG and pathetic electric range at that. Why bother other than to continue the last 40 years of Lying marketing BS about their quality of auto since they cannot seem to engineer anything else. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1127832_2021-bmw-330e-plug-in-hybrid-23-electric-miles-but-worse-mpg-than-non-hybrid How do you bring out a new Hybrid with worse MPG on top of only a pathetic 23 miles of range. The Chevrolet Volt did better than this on pure electric and everything else. What a joke. Mercedes-benz is in the same boat, cannot deliver a quality true EV, so making the whole product line Hybrid by the end of 2020. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1127830_mercedes-benz-pushes-plug-in-hybrid-tech-will-have-20-phevs-by-end-of-2020 MB latest Hybrid is rated at 43 mpg on their European test which no one ever really gets due to the loopholes and lack of real world testing which is why our EPA results are so much more accurate. So MB Hybrids really only get about 20 mpg pure electric range. Wanna understand the difference between European testing of range and the EPA testing check out this writeup. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1091877_why-european-gas-mileage-ratings-are-so-high--and-often-wrong
