Was a good thread, then came a troll.You can't seriously be buying into this decades later?
I think CAFE standards have been a pretty good impetus along with other regulations from various countries and of course the cost of oil. To assume improvements in fuel efficiency are the result of Tesla is pretty silly although competition no doubt plays a role.Market fixing and stagnation has gotten to the point where no other competitor has cared about efficiency. It wasn't until Tesla started to light a fire under their ass that car makers have decided to actually try something new instead of releasing a fancy new shell over the same old guts. There's just no incentive to keep our air clean and our wallets full. Just look at all the shit you have to go through to get solar panels in some states.
Ha, very good point.Mazda tech news is meaningless until it shows up on the dealer lot. Diesel was supposed to be out in 2011... Also no RX7 no care.
