Anything is better than the BMW iX steering wheel. Did a few new tires and rotation on Saturday, that steering wheel is so square and oddly shaped that the scout wheel looks normal.
You cant drive it through the boarder with temp tags, and then get it registered in canada? People in South America can do to enter the USA, so why cant you do it to enter your home country?
I would be shocked if we don’t see Elastocaloric Heat/Cooling instead of heat pumps, it way more efficient, most likely cheaper, And by 2027 we will probably see them replacing heat pumps.

Most we’ll see is adaptive cruise control and lane assist, only because Scott Keogh’s big thing is that America doesn’t need AI for everything and the American people haven’t forgotten on how to simple things.
It might have to, but depending on if the emissions of the engine and the battery equal out it will be considered carbon neutral. And wont have to be checked. Or at least that how my state handles it.
I’ll try to find out who’s making the muffler/cat combo Unit.
EDIT: From what I’m finding it seems Walker Exhausts would be a good guess since they are made in Virginia, and they make Muffler/Cat Combo Unit.
It’s not a Hybrid it’s a EREV(Extended Range Electric Vehicle). My guess is that when the battery start to reach around 35 the generator will kick on and start to spin some type of alternator that will “harvest” electricity. And put it back into the battery allow you to drive farther. But it...
Its not a hybrid. So nothing will be kicking on at above 30mph. It will probably have a limit on what percentage of battery left that it turns on.
The generator is gonna have a 3 zone muffler and cat system, so you wont hear any noise(possibly very faintly). Its also a inline 3.
