    It was an impressive demonstration of a car that likely will come with some heavy caveats and restrictions if it ever goes into production.

    It won’t.

    The event was less than 30 minutes and felt more like a stunt show than a product reveal.

    Because that’s what it was.

    Indeed, there was no mention of price, trim levels, release date, or other such mundane details.

    Because it’s not a legitimate consumer product and it never will be.

    I personally couldn’t give less of a fuck.

    I just want busses, trains and walkable cities. Cars shouldn’t be the norm in any society.

      In all fairness they tried horribly in Nevada called the Vegas Loop where tunnels were built under the city to speed up transport using driverless teslas to get to like several points as quick as possible. I think it was a flop though. Its the big reason why companies shouldnt be making these things and instead should be government projects for infrastructure improvement. Mixing profit with necessity never works.

        The car company told us why subways simply don’t work well. Totally legit. The contract was also won in a competition called “who can make a good public transportation system”, so pay no attention to the car company taking the winnings away from the train and bus companies.

      And for people who don’t live in cities ?

        If you need to go to the city you drive your car and then when you’re on the outskirts you can get a bus or a train in?

          I did not said that.
          My “people who don’t live in cities” means “for people who don’t live in the city and don’t need to go in the city”, not everyone need a city in their lives.

          And in this case, train and bus are not an option for most of the times.

    Why is it okay to hype products made by actual, literal Nazis? What the fuck is wrong with us?
