Cars historically have remand consistant with inflation. Wages are the issue. The best thing about hybrids, and fuel efficient vehicles in general is they allow for performance cell cars to exist in terms of regulalations. There is a market for them, and this technology will extend the life...

Just like stocks, you diversify to wade through tough times. A cocktail of clean energy solutions is needed.

There are negative aspects to solar, however that is most related to manufacturing processes, land use, supplemental water cooling if needed, and emissons associated with carbon dixode produced during there transportion.

Once the sun is done, it's game over for the sol system. But realistically from a National Security standpoint and Eviromental, fossils fuels are a risk. The sooner we get away from them the better. Then we can use oil for more useful things like polymers.

People complain about the 1k difference in the Camaro and Mustang. This has to be affordable. I never said it wasn't affordable to the masses or that's how I think it should be. I said 10 year old aerospace fuel cell tech isn't, UUUUuuuge Economies of scale difference. Aerospace technology...

Personally none. But it's not my crowd, and I dont really got to cars and coffee. But lets be honest even a ICE has design thresholds, and safety margins, Increasing performance with a tune is easy. You just compromise some of those known variables. They only thing you would have to do to a...

Trump has no authority yet, and frankly that has no bearing on the conversation. Getting new technology to a cost, and production level for a automobile is difficult, and takes time. Why do you think Mercedes and BMW's are so expensive? They are pushing already vetted automotive technologies...

While I have no interest in the Hybrid Mustang. Honestly I think it will only help the GT. This could be blessing in many ways. There may be a Federal grant or company/program incentive to electrify for CAFE targets. They will likely want to keep the car as light a possible. The Hybrid...

This is disingenuous, Cars are at the fore front of affordable economies of scale. None of use could afford 10 year old aerospace fuel cell tech as is... Unless we got lucky on Government Liquidators. There is a reason cars don't represent the computation power of current computers. One...

I guess you have never heard of the Volt, Bolt, Hybrid Suburbans...

Ford hasn't said what type of electrification the Mustang would receive; more than likely your concerns are completely invalid. If it was a plug in electric vehicle your concerns would be valid. However even if running purely off the ICE, the electric power-train can still scavenge power. I...

This is from another thread. Sounds exciting to me.

You have to keep in mind the S550 Mustang was funded at the worst time in automotive history. It's success and lessons learned from the GT and F150 is likely why the S650 was pushed father forward faster. One of the functional objectives for the Mustang was to maintain BIW mass and...

That is correct Dave mentioned on autoline; Ford knew where the Camaro was going and they weren't concerned. When you create a segment, you can continue to define it.

I think the evolutionary nature is correct. Unlike the Camaro the Mustang only has itself, and Ford Performance variants/ racing to advance itself. I don't think the plan was reactionary. To any vehicle, more over I think to sales the success of the platform. I think it seems like Ford...

This made me chuckle. There are alot of things a OEM can do to get EPA credits. Ford hasn't had to do alot of them yet due to the success of the ecoboost. Active grille shutters cylinder deactivation Start Stop YF1234 AC Refrigerant Lots of little things to help out the fleet, that will keep...

2025 Cafe is coming. This seems logical. This is likely when well see alot of lightweighting and major updates to the current architecture .
