The trouble is for Ford that would be a very expensive move. Loss of Canadian subsidies (which may go anyway now) plus the cost of moving facilities will make that a tough call. Simpler just to put the car price up.
My post was in jest, hence the winky face but the crucial thing is the source of information. If it is a peer reviewed paper in a proper journal with proper statistical analysis using approved methods then you can be comfortable of the evidence. If it is a headline grabbing opinion piece in a...
Yes but those big V8 trucks will not be helping CAFE either, but I suppose they can afford the fines by charging more? They never sold in Europe as big V8 trucks are pointless here, too big, to thirsty.
They must be worthwhile in China and the Middle East where they still sell them.
Shame you didn't do Chemistry!
You have still failed to explain where the Carbon goes in your ceramic engine combustion process (or even provided proper evidence of the process anyway).
You also seem to be confusing Lithium in elemental form with Lithium compounds such as Lithium Iron...
Not sure what the X3 price has to do with anything?
I don’t care about what European cars do with their platforms. :crackup:
Car makers are global - not European cars, global cars. So are the platforms. BMW sell cars GLOBALLY with the same platforms, so do Ford. Car makers have or aim to...
I'm amazed they don't sell it in the US as it is by far their biggest selling car in Europe. If they were going to they would have by now. Maybe the new compact EV platform which will be used for the new Puma will be the next opportunity.
Falcon is long gone I'm afraid, it's EA169 platform was...
Well not surprisingly you are misinformed on a few things. The Puma although a crossover actually uses the B platform which is a car platform originally used for the Fiesta and other small compact cars, so was car first, crossover second. There is now an EV version too. It will be replaced by...
Ford do sell cars outside the US. The Fusion is still going strong in China and the Middle east, they could easily sell it in other places if they feel there is a market for it.
We also have the Puma in Europe (which is effectively a car) and the new small EV platform is intended for small...
Actually realist is defined as:
A person who accepts a situation as it is and is prepared to deal with it accordingly.
You don't seem to be accepting the situation as what you want is not being done by car makers!
