    What is the point of the 1.6T? It's about the same power as the 2.5, and I imagine the fuel economy improvements wouldn't be that substantial, soooooo why opt for it? No more powerful engine option is confusing to me.

    I know this doesn't really help the discussion much but I've always wondered how to pronounce his last name... coming from a language teacher, it's kinda what I look at first. ?

    But their largest sedan of a "premium" brand should not offer it? I mean, I keep wondering why GM cars are so poorly equipped at lower trims if other auto makers can offer so much as standard equipment, or even optional on their cheapest vehicles.

    Not to beat a dead horse, but rain-sensing wipers on a Yaris, yet never a LaCrosse... Anyway, not a fan of the Yaris or hatches in general, but this looks nice and nicely equipped.

    The concept looks beautiful, but how many times have we heard Acura is going for a new look, new this, new that? I think what will really help their case is to add more letters. I personally would love to tell people I have an TLX with SH-AWD Type-S... hell, throw the whole keyboard on the bumper.

    Well, perhaps the warning might make it obvious for someone to think they should stop being behind the wheel. But face it, the people who shouldn't be behind the wheel, are often behind the wheel, so things like this could help them drive safer.

    Being that I live in an area with frequent traffic it's nice to just look at a little light on your side mirror to know you can't merge that second, than to constantly flip your head to check the blind spot only to find out you can't do anything. It keeps your eyes facing forward and as someone who occasionally wakes up with a stiff neck, it's a pleasure.

    It's nice, I like it, but I don't understand the point of the Passat with this? I like as it was said earlier, the base isn't stripped clean of features. I'm surprised there's no mention of safety features such as blind spot monitoring or lane departure warning.

    The Kona is already SO small...

    I honestly wish I had that service because the dealer, even with an appointment, is horribly slow. I end up sitting there for 2-3 hours for an oil change. And I tried to get it done at Pep Boys and they don't carry the "exotic" and it has to be preordered, which I wish they would tell you when you make the appointment.

    This makes sense. I could see this becoming popular... I know part of the reason my parents tried their first lease 3 years ago is because I enticed them with the idea of owning one car, and always having one car completely new, covered bumper-to-bumper, and the only thing they really have to do is get it inspected and have oil changes.

    I think this could sell... it has coupish looks and a few design elements that although I don't care for, people seem to eat them up.

    They're painful to look at.

    Oh good, I was wondering what they were going to do with those old Park Avenue grilles... glad to see them repurposed. Are those turbine wheels from the grounded Boeings?

    It's going to be two 4-cylinder engines like the current lineup, and a hybrid. I can't imagine anything else. I'm hoping they don't throw a tiny 4-cylinder turbo in as a base engine. Probably an 8-speed auto standard. Would be very pleasantly surprised if AWD showed up as an option but truthfully, I don't know anything about this platform or their desires to offer AWD in the midsize sedan segment. In typical Hyundai fashion, I expect a slew of safety equipment standard.

    That interior sells it to me. Timing has to be right, but I'd lease this next.

    True.. that was the majority of the fuel behind this purchase. See what I did there? I'd like to see more options for charging stations in public spaces. I know some colleges have a few charging spots. It'd be interesting if like a college student (not owning a Tesla, but perhaps a Leaf or Bolt) could charge while in class.

    I believe my friend is charging on a 220 at home, and only once has he needed to stop at a station to charge (he drove upstate and back). For most peoples' needs, having the 440 at home would be a waste of money to install and only there for "bragging rights".

    I recall him driving down the highway and his daughter had just shifted to the one-buttcheek-wide middle seat after her sister got in the car, and she didn't want the heated seat on (the middle rear seat is also heated) and he's hovering his finger over the diagram trying to figure out which seat he has to turn off, which he has to turn on, how many clicks each is going to take because they're all at different settings, etc...

    It is absurd. Even the image on the screen is rotated to a sideview of the interior of the car... so you have to mentally rotate your head to imagine which seat she's sitting in based on the image rather than a top-down view which in my opinion would make more sense.
  22. Paolino
    Not to get off topic, but it still infuriates me to no end how 99% of the controls are in the screen. I mean, seriously, goddaughter is in the back seat and wants her heated seat on... driver has to go into the climate menu, then tap her seat to the desired level of heat. C'mon. So much unnecessary time looking away from the road. I was amused at the Yulelog you can play on the screen.

    I was JUST talking about this last night with my friend in his Tesla 3. I was asking if they shut the stores, how do people test drive cars?! Meet at a park? Does Tesla go to their house?
  24. Paolino
    So I admit to not knowing much about rechargeable batteries, but does charging them so quickly have any effect on the lifespan of a battery?
