I’m mixed on this, as they now have the ID.3 Neo that sits right there in that segment, so they would have a big overlap. If the 800V, Rivian SW Golf will land the “Neue Klasse” moment for VW, they better do it right and a delay could be necessary to get everything right. They got so much wrong the first time around, now they have improved the models a lot but they will need a real step up. But moving it well past 2028 could also mean missing the critical moment and be just late. We’ll see I guess!

Hybrids = ICE

Whoever is paid to push this agenda should stop the NEV bullshit. No need to sweeten the picture by compounding EVs with hybrids, EVs are doing great in their own.

If those are the mods we’re talking about, I bet the scene is literally on fire 🔥

You can also try to bend it back straight if it’s only slightly dented (but better replace it!)

I also would check the derailleur hanger and maybe chain length? How did you shorten the chain? Furthermore, does the limited range on the rear change depending on which front chainring is used? A general advice is to never trust what you read on Amazon listings but do product research on the manufacturers websites.

That struck a nerve I see! Drink a lot and breathe, the future is dire but as much as you depict it!

Art of the deal

You saw future US then (as in: the impression anyone traveling there will have in 20 years time, coming from an electrified world)

Who’d known that cheap cut-edge technology at low price points would enthuse the German buyer.

Technology isn’t just a big infotainment screen. I agree that they are mostly good enough, are extremely cheap, but people should try them and compare them with European counterparts to understand they are actually cheap and hugely less refined in drive quality and other “car” aspects, instead of thinking they have some magic going on where their technology is so far in the future.

There’s no Kherson region in Russia, though.

The world needs more women in leadership roles (not Takaichi-style)

I tried it years ago, it looks more mature now but I’m so used to Safaris “Hide distractions” feature that I’m missing it dearly after less than an hr of trying it out :(

My mind is blown.

Killing Netanyahu wouldn’t be great self defense, on the contrary. What Iran and Iran-controlled factions are doing now is the better “self defense” violence: target assets that have a deep value for the US and their allies.

You’re for sure entertaining :D

Did I say anything good about US and west information? You see the world in black and white, deciding I’m a paladin for shitty America. To your detriment, you clearly overestimate your intellect.

You’re speaking of a country that blocked internet access for the whole population multiple times, it’s clear that information is strictly controlled. This is a huge overarching example ;)

Yep, my joke was that they win the misinformation fight against a pretty capable opponent ;)

Hyundai Staria, Lucid Gravity, VW ID.Buzz to name a few

It’s a close fight, and probably the only one the White House will win
