@Car_Guy_Tom Oh yes, and why VW didn't tell the dealers before they announced it.

[Stephen Edelstein @SAEdelstein]

@Car_Guy_Tom I'm definitely intrigued, but a lot can happen between now and 2027.

Nice to see Kia taking pride in its heritage.

Begging race tracks to spend just a little bit of money to ensure their facility has cell service on race day.

The LX 700h isn't much more efficient than the non-hybrid LX 600, but it checks a box.

[Green Car Reports @GreenCarReports]

The largest Lexus SUV finally gets a hybrid powertrain, but it's unlikely to make it efficient. https://t.co/kATUnfo5Gl

Mach-E up ~25% YoY
Ioniq 5 up 20% YoY
Ariya up 50%+ YoY

I could go on and on. Numbers and facts, please.
