RIP Lotus Eletre.

No one in their right mind is going to spend US$110k on an Eletre when they can get a Macan 4 for $79k. Yes, the Macan is slightly smaller, but I don’t think most people will notice.

Every review of the Eletre contains complaints about the poor tuning of its steering and suspension (which comes as a shock to me, considering it wears a Lotus badge), issues that I suspect will not be present in a Porsche product. Superior handling for $30k less, and a service center that’s less than 50 miles away? Yeah, it’s a no-brainer.

Gleiches Recht für alle - eine leere Phrase. Dieses Urteil klingt nach Herrschaftsjustiz!
Bevor er das vor der Katastrophe warnte, brachte der Landrat noch schnell seinen in Sicherheit. Er wurde frei gesprochen.

Ich warne Menschen also nicht, weil ich nicht weiß, wie sie reagieren?! 😡

This is an AMAZING introductory video on how the Porsche double-clutch (PDK) transmission works. It’s explained in very plain terms, with simple illustrations and a teardown of an actual transmission to show how they physically appear.

I’m eagerly waiting for Part 2.

All the current Taycan owners will be upgrading to the absolutely bananas new version, so maybe someone will sell me a used one for $25K:)

So the is out and pricing/trim is available

From $80,450/£69,800 to $88,450/£95,000

Obviously with a lot of spendy options to choose form.

Spec wise it comes in a bit more than the out going model ( no base model comparison)

Yes, we are talking a lot about @Vivaldi in cars. We are very proud of Vivaldi being available in cars from , , , and -Benz, with , , and coming soon, as well as more vehicles from the VW group and a lot more. It is a big deal!

At the same time, what allows us to build a great browser for cars is the effort we put into our desktop and mobile browsers in general. We are upping our efforts there as well!

Calling all car fact hoarders. I have read that and other euro luxury manufacturers use higher quality galvanized steel. This is part of the reasons old and are so popular in New England.
Does anyone know is the macan gets steel that is any different than the am that share the MLB platform? I believe they are made in different factory but does anyone know if the metal in bodies are significantly different or how to look that up?

Yay: Volkswagen, Porsche and Audi are switching over to NACS in North America, including adapters for existing vehicles

Meh: It won't happen until 2025

At this point, Volvo/Polestar and BMW have overtaken Volkswagen/Porsche/Audi on my list of brands/marques to consider, at least when it comes to European companies

I know it’s just the beginning of this technology, but the time and price of production are frightening! This is a completely different order of magnitude from standard solutions.

And this is the VW-Porsche 914, the joint successor both to the recently featured Volkswagen Big Karmann and the Porsche 912. Almost all 914s received the air-cooled four-cylinder engine from yesterday’s Volkswagen Type 4 (914/4) but a few, such as this one ( 2019) got a mild version of the six-cylinder boxer engine from the 911 (914/6). With its mid-engined layout, the 914 foreshadowed the later Boxster in Porsche’s line-up.

I can’t move on from the Porsche 356 and the 356-powered Fletcher Flair and 597 Jagdwagen without featuring the Porsche 912. The 912 had the same body as the 911, but used the 356’s four cylinder engine instead of the 911’s six, and was initially the better-selling car. Snapped at in 2013 - the engine shot is from a second 912 at the same event. Both cars were reimports to Germany from the US, and were on sale for about €30K. Bargain.
