that really is not a sound statement. many car makers bring cars to the shows with out interiors. some without motors

If only it sounded like my 2 Stroke 4-53 Detroit that was Turbo and Super Charged and if only it is as reliable and cheap to maintain and rebuid.

Makes me wonder too for how long the Big 3 have been avoiding technology and designs like this becuase they are in bed with big oil.

I wish I could but we used to have a prius and I'm permanently scarred.

Is that a joke?
Model S has up to 588hp and 920lb/ft of torque at the wheels and at least twice the economy.

I'm sure it's just what the global warming scientists envisioned. 🙂 You do have to laugh at all this bs. I mean unless they have some other agenda like a global tax scheme.

Maybe it's a modern version of Joseph Newman's Energy Machine?

Bring back the turbine engine. Unlimited HP as long as you're patient and can wait for the spool up. Burn gas, diesel, vodka, fry oil, whatever.
