Sure, to get them to speak in unison. They did all read from the same script though. It wouldn’t be as viscerally creepy without the editing, but I would say the situation is as bad as the video makes it seem.

If you are in a small car and an F350 hits you, it is going to do a lot of damage whether it is this or a more conventional car. At least with this you may limit the body and frame damage to that wheel and suspension. If it just tears off that wheel it will pobably transfer less impact to the passenger compartment too, and I care more about my neck than a wheel or quarter panel.
It’s more like they are around again, they folded quite a while ago then started back up in 2019 I think. Still a fairly long development, but not 15 years, haha.
I think the timer is a little pushy, but giving a warning before closing open investment isn’t a bad thing. If they reopen crowdfunding after closing it now, I will share your suspicions.
Probably worse for Barbra than the picture is this phenomenon being named after her. I was familiar with the the Streisand Effect and who the name came from, but didn’t know the backstory and hadn’t seen her house.
For anyone curious.
Maybe that was literally the case, he apparently had mercury poisoning at around the same time.
It’s starting to sound like a retelling of the old lady who swallowed the fly.
Someone needs to invite /u/Poem_for_your_sprog to Lemmy.
In general I agree with you for sure, we have way too many. But if there are any worth preserving, I’d say it’s the old ones in Scotland where golf was invented. And at least there they don’t have to be watered constantly.
Well, you are right about the subsidies and going after bigger market shares. And they may not be the highest quality vehicles, but I don’t think they will be terrible either or they wouldn’t hold on to the market share they gain.
They have been making electric buses and forklifts in the US since 2009, and have a decent reputation.
EVs very rarely catch fire. A vehicle with a large tank of gasoline which is burned to produce power poses a much higher fire risk.
20-60x more likely to catch fire, depending on which study you look at. My first Google result said 20x, but it was on an EV focused website, and I thought they might not be impartial. But Kelly Blue Book should be pretty good, right? Their article says 60x.

This may be the most apt application of this meme I have ever seen, lol
US I assume? We do get their buses and Semis. Have for years. So maybe we’ll get cars too? I won’t hold my breath though. I think we’ll count ourselves lucky if we get Nissans made in China once that plant opens.
Yeah, even better on their repair parts, they plan to have a QR code sticker on all components linking to a video showing the safe and correct steps for replacing that part, I really love that.
As much as I welcome new EV manufacturers, I am not upset about this. Their mandatory “battery subscription” business model is terrible for consumers, and I hope it dies in the cradle.
Looks like there is a 1000V variant. I’m guessing there just aren’t any chargers built with it yet.
North American Charging Standard Technical Specification 6. Ratings 6.1 Voltage Rating The North American Charging Standard exists in both a 500V rated configuration and a 1,000V rated configuration. The 1,000V version is mechanically backwards compatible (i.e. 500V inlets can mate with 1,000V connectors and 500V connectors can mate with 1,000V inlets)
Oh, agreed!
