Eh, Rawlinson also said Pure RWD is his favorite, no?

Also https://electrek.co/2024/08/21/lucid-lcid-challenge-tesla-three-new-affordable-evs/ This is really exciting! I was reluctantly trying to interest myself with the upcoming crossover and Rivian's R3 (both too tall) but if there's a smaller sedan *and* an off roady vehicle both coming out...

Indeed. But the actual spy shots (camouflaged) did show new front headlights that look like these, so it's a reasonable interpretation.

The fully electric Defender is not out yet, right? Gravity might beat it to the punch

Yep. I own one and will most likely look elsewhere even if they make a proper sedan next time

Yeah, and they are all horrid

https://thekoreancarblog.com/2024/07/18/first-rendering-of-hyundai-ioniq-6-facelift/ Instead of fixing the droop on the side they messed with the gorgeous old front end! I guess the competition for my next car is really down to Lucid vs BMW now (hopefully the midsize will be more sedan than...

CarWow noticed they took the headlights from the Roadster instead 😅

Good potential, badly tuned (sound system is weak too) - the lack of experience shows I think.

The regen and braking experience seems badly tuned - and the navigation system does not direct to charging stations. But the driving dynamics seems decent. Probably a decent Tesla Model 3 competitor.

Seems to be impressed by both the build quality (Audi-like), trunk and interior space

That's the exact same size HMG is using in the refreshed 2025 IONIQ 5 and Kia EV6 so customers can actually compare the range apples-to-apples!

https://electrek.co/2024/07/16/lucid-2025-air-pure-offers-5-miles-per-kwh-most-efficient-car-in-world/ 3x the computational power and 2x the memory of the previous cars - this bodes well for software improvements in the future

Central air vents have been there since MY2022 Kia EV6 I think? But yeah the rollers are new with EV9 and carried to 2025 EV6

"It's Por-Sche!"

To clarify, my wife doesn't drive an EV yet. But she finds AWD EVs a bit too fast so I was suggesting a RWD

Given the head of vehicle development was fired, it could also be the team is not ... very good (or was too busy bringing the Cybertruck to life.. and we know how stellar a job they did there /s)

If @HariK 's wife is like mine the RWD Standard GV60 would more than suffice 🫠 (Though annoyingly the nicer interior comes with the Advanced and, even more so, Performance trims)

They even stopped making a RHD model S so if you buy it in countries like the UK you end up sitting on the wrong side

Yeah... I get that S and X are not Tesla's bread and butter, but as someone who likes performance sedans (though Model S is too big for me) it makes me less impressed that Tesla doesn't seem to be able to keep several product lines developed concurrently (or develop brand new ones properly)
