The only real downside the Cadillac XTS is that it has now sadly gone out of production as of this year. That does not make it any less of a good car, however. It is incredibly affordable for a luxury machine and has fantastic ride quality in performance, both very important for a luxury machine. It’s just a shame the XTS is no longer in product

The Model 3's drive quality is high-performing compared to almost every other car on the market. The drive quality features a smooth ride, instant acceleration, solid and reliable handling, and instant torque. In addition, Tesla Model 3 earned the best safety score ever from the NHTSA, which shows the likelihood of injury in a cr

This 1977 K5 Blazer has received a conversion to an entirely Electric Car Game Online Guide|Https://Evinsightzone.Com/ drivetrain, replacing its original 400ci V8, which produced an anemic 175 horsepower from the factory that was routed through a three-speed automatic. Now, under the hood lurks a Bolt EV motor, providing 200 ponies and 266 lb-ft of torque to a four-speed automatic. The transfer case, driveshaft, and axles remain in factory f

The rear bed of the Blazer, meanwhile, now holds the 60-kWh battery pack—which really removes a lot of the daily functionality of the two-seater SUV-truck blend. But this project was built to show off the tech, so keeping the components visible may have been a higher priority than squeezing them into tight spa

While iterating new design details in VR, Jenkins and the Lucid Air team constantly kept real-world sales in mind. Lucid’s ethos is upscale, luxurious, performance-oriented, elegant—all words Jenkins repeated frequently. And the decision to go upscale—rather than produce a Model 3 competitor, for example—was purpose

Over 90 percent of the system's parts are shared with the Chevy Bolt, including regenerative braking, battery heating, and cooling functions, and an overcharge protection kit. After renowned GM aftermarket builders Lingenfelter Performance Engineering tests out a training and certification program for the eCrate package, Chevy hopes to begin sales to the general public in the second half of 2

"I feel like there’s a very advanced customer out there," he posited. "Especially at the mid and high end of the market… We built up a series of personas for North America: male and female, West Coast, East Coast. Then we started to set our eyes on Europe, the Middle East, and China to further define that global custom

The Tesla Model 3 contains 97 square cubic feet of passenger space, only best by the Lexus LG, Toyota Camry XLE, Lexus ES, and Honda Accord Hybrid. The cargo space of the Tesla Model 3 is 15 cubic feet, the second-highest ranked out of the competition. Combining both of these numbers, the Tesla Model 3 offers more passenger and cargo space combined than nearly every other car on the l

Everyone in the automotive industry knows that electrification is the way of the future. Just look at the Ford Mustang Mach-E with 1,400 horsepower screaming through some drifts or Elon Musk's Tesla models as they dominate drag strips. Lucid's VP of Design Derek Jenkins even said that the Saudi Monetary Wealth Fund is hedging its bets with a $1 billion investment into the EV market, a serious sign of the changing times. Now, Chevrolet has announced a new pilot program for a potential electric conversion crate engine that will be revealed for the first time in a restomodded K5 Blazer at the upcoming virtual SEMA360 eve

Kia? Making a luxury car? Well, they do, and they make a good job of it too! Named the Stinger it surprised many and is perhaps the closest rival to Alfa Romeo’s Giulia. It has quite a speedy look that might make some think it’s a sports car, but don’t be fooled. With Apple CarPlay, a gorgeous touch screen, and seat heating this is a very affordable luxury mach

It was straight to the drawing board for Jenkins, though at that point, Lucid wasn’t even Lucid and the Air wasn’t the Air. "It was Atieva," Jenkins explained. "It was a sedan concept that Peter had in his mind. And we basically started from scratch there and really defined the vehicle, the layout, the target customer, the market position, the product attributes, where our strengths were going to l

But due to the lack of a rotating internal combustion assembly, other electrical components have been added including an electric power steering setup, an electric brake booster, and a conversion to electronic control for the gauge cluster that adds a battery charge meter in place of the fuel ga

Those power figures allow the Polestar 2 to sprint to 60 in a respectable 4.1 seconds, while the all-wheel-drive setup allows for up to .90 g of lateral acceleration during cornering. But, stats only go so far in the real world, so what does an experienced tester like Matt Farah think? Well, he's definitely impressed with the Polestar 2's fit and finish, plus the Swedish design elements and build quality. Matt wants to know the EPA-estimated range, which could be anywhere in the 190 to mid-200-mile range. Matt admits he loves Teslas, but this car "feels like a much better-built, solid thing. It doesn't have some of the cheekiness, some of the meme-come-to-life things the Tesla has." Other highlights include advanced connectivity capabilities including a large touchscreen, a Google infotainment system with Google Assistance, and a system that recognizes the driver by connecting with their smartphone to adjust seating setti
