The Truth About Cars

MAY 21, 2024

Like the turbo, the PHEV was punchy, but it seemed easier to summon its power at light throttle. One of us said “Lexus” in conversation and Alexa piped up. I do wonder if Mazda can steal sales from the Lexus RX, BMW X5, and Jeep Grand Cherokee – all three were on hand for static comparison. And so on.

The front-wheel drive Mazda MX-5 Miata and Hyundai Veloster R-Spec are wonderful, handle great and are zippy, but are not in the same conversation with the much larger, rear-wheel drive, more powerful and heavier Corvette Stingray.

The high beltline of the car and oddly small window openings mean you’re a captive of the car’s 360-degree camera view, which I found utterly overmatched in all but the best lighting conditions. This RWD variant effectively competes with the BMW i4 eDrive40, at least on paper. Bring your USB-C cable.

I have some machined BMW 320i calipers coming in a few weeks to upgrade the stopping power. I'm also thinking about replacing all the rear bulbs with LED lights to save on 12V current. On Friday I'll be re-aligning the front end for better steering and replacing the brake cylinder.

I turned on all the lights, including the fog lights and drove around for about 20 minutes. One common way of improving the braking on the 914 is to upgrade to BMW 320i front brake calipers. I didn't want to hassle with the bottom two tabs, so I lined the whole back of the converter with Velcro and it isn't budging!

If in addition to normal electric use in homes such as lights and appliances, we charge the PHEV cars at 2 kW at the appropriate times, we could increase the utility factor of the already-installed wires in homes to more than 25%, still leaving plenty of safety margin and capacity. The BMW-i3 and the Renault Kangoo are examples.

Third, I dont understand why people feel it available in message chatting to speak in a manner they would doubtless not use in personal conversation.
