Wait what? The ID4 is the SUV one and the ID3 is the hatchback one that isn't available in the US? I guess the ID3 is a bit bigger than a Golf, but the battery pack has to go somewhere.

Those corporate lawyers need to prove to themselves that they aren't just a bullshit job

I mean, when "SUV" also has to include the Yukon XL...

"Crossovers" are such a mess that I just look at dimensions, not segments, at this point.

I'm really curious what the different add-ons will end up costing. The long range with a bed cover and speakers could be my next car.

The Slate, R2/R3, and Telo are all intriguing to me for different reasons, but the minimalism of the Slate is definitely a draw.

If you can go off grid, you can stay in a lot of national forests for 14 days. Big campgrounds, and especially private campgrounds, really don't do it for me.

A quick search says it's more like 8-10 million total, so closer to 1/40 people. Avg household size of 2.5 gets that to 1/16 households.

And they opposite, when they ask to roll perception or investigation when it doesn't matter at all and the improv'ed answer turns into a major plot point

GMC buyers should pay attention to make sure they can haul their mom around

They mostly don't have gas stations, either. Some of the national parks out west are super remote. "No services next 100 miles" type remote. You can't expect driving through the middle of nowhere to be a walk in the park.

Everything has been focus grouped to death. Here's a grayscale crossover, enjoy.

Compact sedans sell decently well in the US. Civic, Corolla, etc. There are so few subcompact options, and the ones that exist aren't super compelling, so it's hard to draw any conclusions from that segment.
