>>28463615>the new Challengerboth ford and dodge made the same mistake: reuse an existing name to make an EV.
in fords case it was extremely ridiculous, because they called a bog standard cuv a fucking mustang. i don't know who was responsible for this idiocy, but i sincerely hope they lost their job and their self-respect.
but dodge fucked up almost as badly, by taking a brand name historically associated with big v8 high perf muscle cars and making it into a small sedan ev. with pretty meh perf too. the least they could do was to launch the fucker with 1500hp and dab on tesla and lucid. but nooooooo, it had to be a cuckmobile through and through. fucking idiots.
mercedes did a much better job of it with the g-glass. it looks basically identical to the gas powered counterpards, or at least can be specced that way.
ofc, they had to learn the hard way first, see eqs clusterfucks, but they did learn, and i expect to see loads of electric g wagens going around.
bimmer also did it well, with the i4/5/7s looking almost identical to the gas versions and doubtless selling well.
