    Your comments are also interesting because Porsche and Audi are owned by VAG (VW)
    really? Truly?

    And all those years I wasted in the motor industry including Ford Australia Distribution Manager and BMW Planning and Distribution Manager and I find that out now! (SARC)

    But NO VWs. So why did the OZ manager complain? Is it that they could not make money at a VW type price point as opposed to a n Audi or Porsche price point?

    Seriously Audis are just VWs in a Tux. Look under and they are identical like Q7 and Toureg, and Cayenne. All the same underneath.

    The truth is that VW can sell all they want of ID4s etc in Europe and the risk is less there, if a Chevy Volt recall disaster should happen.

    Yep, really and truely.

    Even the price of the Audi ones are stupid, I'm surprised they sell any of them. Charging that much for a VW... I agree, they would be so far out of the ball park for pricing for a VW.

    Don’t know if this fits in here, but it’s electric and it’s a vehicle, just not one designed to drive on roads

    19C-1E Electric Mini Excavator - JCB

    At around the $80000 mark, not cheap, but savings on fuel and servicing and 85% battery life after 10 years maybe worthwhile
    Also save the ears and nose from having noise and fumesEV general discussionEV general discussion
    1985 110 Dual Cab 4.6 R380 ARB Lockers (currently NIS due to roof kissing road)
    1985 110 Station Wagon 3.5 LT85 (unmolested blank canvas)

    A Customer of ours has a new Tesla.

    He recons that when he takes his hands are off the steering wheel,it cruises around corners no worries.

    But after two audible alerts it slows down and pulls off the road and stops by itself.

    I forgot to ask what it does if it comes across a set of traffic lights or a roundabout while there are no hands on the wheel.

    I will ask next time i see him, and report back.

    There is a You Tube video of a Model 3 negotiating city streets under auto pilot and it didn't do very well running down tram lines , missing turns, stopping at green lights, mistaking road signs.

    Also there is another one showing that the lack of LIDAR is likely to cause it to run down children who pop out from behind parked cars (as they do)
