"Driving 4 answers" is a youtube channel I've been watching for a while. I think he gives fantastic explanations of all things internal combustion. He has not been shy about his dislike of EV's from a conceptual standpoint, so he's definitely coming from a biased standpoint. I have no issues with EV's, personally. I own one (Hyundai Ioniq.5). But touch-screen-only interfaces just don't belong in a car and this guy really gives a great run down as to why.

I be honest I do not understand the sudden love for hybrids on this sub. Here what I seen non stop the last six months:
"Toyota and Honda are right to not invest in Evs!"
"Hybrids are the future not Evs because of infrastrcuture!"
"Evs are too expensive!"
These seem like decent points on paper but when you break it down there not really anything that screams hybrids are the best option especially for this enthusansit sub reddit. Hybrids are very heavy, more complicated than a standalone ICE or EV, there hardly any hybrid sports cars and virtually none with a manual transmission, if you did ge ..read more

I have 2 vehicles: my car with back seats in case I need to take my son to school (gti), and a daily/fun vehicle (motorcycle). I already feel like the gti is being under-utilized because sometimes I go a week at a time without driving it.
Recently, I have been considering adding a 4x4 (missing the off-road parks after selling a gen5 4Runner). My main concern is that, at around 12k miles per year across all vehicles, certainly one of the cars will be driven only 2k miles per year or less.
For those of you with 3+ cars per driver in your household, do you neglect one completely? Are you somehow ..read more

SUVs are selling incredibly well, with almost all manufacturers having at least 1 in their lineup, how can sedans make a comeback? Is it through styling? Affordable cost? Additionally, are there countries that currently sell more sedans than SUVs?

Ford is under fire for a remedy for their faulty fuel injectors that can crack and cause fuel to accumulate near an ignition source. Instead of replacing the fuel injectors, they’ve decided to install a drain tube that would avoid it spilling near an ignitable source. They also updated the software to detect when the fuel injector was failing to reduce engine output and engine temperatures to prevent any incidents from occurring.

With news of the Malbu's demise, I began to think. Has GM really changed since going bankrupt? Personally, I don't think they have, for several reasons. I was reading a report from 2009 from Harvard Business Review and the three of the main reasons why GM failed back in 2009 according to them was
GM makes cars people don’t want
GM is too slow to innovate because of its size
GM is too bureaucratic and unable to adjust to changing markets
In my opinion, GM fails miserably to produce cars that people genuinely want (aside from Corvettes), though I concede this is subjective.
The second point a ..read more
