The warranty on the hybrid battery is 100K miles

Nice warranty!.
Fuckers do not give Aussies a nice warranty like that...but Toyota is renowned for stripping away all the extras for the Aussie market, airconditioning was still an option until a few years ago...the Hilux was a great example of this in Oz!

Hot hatch!

What is your take on electric car’s?
Jaguar Ipace look’s decent ?

What is your take on electric car’s?

They have their use and case but are far from being “the solution “ We have not solved the lithium and advanced metals supply and environmental issues.
I had a Tesla and a volt before, both company cars, they are awesome if you live within range and it’s not at all worried about resale value.
I believe the future will rely heavily on nitrogen hybrids and other forms of adaptable/flexible hybrid systems
I love simple, I would personally not spend My money on them yet

My wife drive’s a BMW suv gas power however the electric car craze seem’s to B decent for breathing?
I have 220v in the garage 4-A charger!
I LIKE Hot Wheel’s so I had her get the Black wheel opinion = Black like a BAT = window’s should be darker?

 

[LesPlenty]

I have 220v in the garage

I wonder how the 110v Plenty would go on that 220v power supply, double the power would be nice
DO NOT TRY THIS @ataxian, I am just wondering out loud, it would probably fry your unit!

Cool... Land Rover, I assume...? Perhaps you mean 289...? 302 didn't debut until '68...
A Mercedes SUV...? Now, who wouldn't like that?
Totally agree...!

Audi today is nothing like the Audi of old and easily rivals Mercedes and BMW... at least Jags have finally gotten better...
