I ran the math a while back on this, the energy consumption and range of this while doing severe offroading is equivalent to a fully fueled ICE Ford Bronco carrying an additional 15 gallons of gasoline. I honestly don't think this will have any big issues, you'd be hard-pressed to find a stretch of offroad course in the United States that could actually tax that range to the limit. That said I'm sure somebody will drive this off the edge of black bear pass at some point.

There have been more Tesla related fatalities in one calendar year than there has been Hummer fender benders reported since the vehicle has been in production, yet y’all will deem this to be _the most dangerous_ simply because of it’s capability on and off road, size and mass? Is the Raptor R and TRX trucks exempt from being so dangerous because they carry gallons of flammable gasoline? Sure, that makes complete sense. 🤡

This completely defeats the reason why we need to electrify transportation: it hogs resources, is extraordinarily inefficient for such a high resource requirement, and is so heavy it is a threat to infrastructure durability when the United States is desperately in need of rebuilding and futurizing.

I always wondered why manufacturers use a steering wheel with paddle shifts in a car that doesn't have an automatic. Like sometimes they use it for engaging rev match in a manual car, and then in EVs like this for turning regen on and off. Is it cause they just have a surplus of steering wheels with paddle shifters? I don't get why the do this

So General Motors should only build boring “sensible” $110,000+ vehicles whose sole purpose is to be efficient, slow, underwhelming rebadged designs that look like preexisting models for the sake of costs cutting and conservatism? If that’s the only application of an EV that you believe the entire country is interested in, you may went to take a peek at the Hummer’s waiting list. The logic and business model you have maybe best for Tesla. I think I prefer the way Marry Barra thinks about EVs, a company as large as General Motors has more than one audience to satisfy and can actually satisfy several markets by offering it all and developing whatever the hell they want.
